TCI's Effer 655 Knuckle Boom

Re: TCI\'s Effer 655 Knuckle Boom

The first vid especially was cool! It looks like you guys are getting better with your crane since your earliest vids. Said with all due respect of course. Practice does make perfect.

Having that beast in the fleet must keep the backlog down.

Nother cool vid!

One small difference I notice between sticks and Ks, the picks seems to linger at the cut a bit longer with the K. Using a winch on a stick, they seem to go up and away quicker.

I think that's really up to the operator, if he's in a hurry or afraid of hurting the climber he's gonna get it the he'll outta there, if the climber and the operator are working well together then the operator may not know if it's cut, also if the climber is the CO then it will take time to put the saw away etc.

What classic said! Did a blind removal with my 30 ton stick on wednesday. All but 3 of the pics my climber had to tell me they were off. I was watching the LMI and no spike nothing. We were down at 28degrees, approx 1600 gross capacity. Andy is my hero!

Its dependent on the piece as to how quick you can take it away whether w a kboom or stick. If there are remaining branches which might be in contact with the piece taken away it is better to go slow until it is clear so as not to brake branches. Once clear they can both be moved quickly.
I think what you are recognizing is control not speed.

And another. I know these are getting repetitive. If Jeremy Brown was a real tree man, he would have his camera on too so we could do picture in picture, or perhaps he could film one of his one man removal days. We also need a good stationary camera on a tripod. ...I cant work under these conditions..... On a more positive note, Im off the Mikes hard lemonade and on the Summer Shandy. Thanks Kyle.

...thanks Jeremy, love it!

I can tell you and Jesse work well together, it's like you guys are playing video games at work. Hey Jesse, did you relocate full-time??? I have this vision of you flying up to Ohio for the big work, drinking summer shandy after work while editing vids of course, and passing out in the cab of the muther effer. Anyway, thanks for making these guys get video! Great Job as always!
