Don't follow him as such but every now and then a vid pops up . Last time I saw him he seemed to struggle with his knees .

He has struggled with a few things including a bad accident, he broke his back. I find his videos quite well put together, he is very old school which is quite refreshing.

Found it on youtube. About 5 mins in he starts to explain it, just watching it myself now.

Ok, thanks, I don’t care for his delivery, but the guy knows his stuff that’s for sure.

[Mr. Squirrel]

I can’t listen to him, he speaks like Trump and it’s just unbearable. Good at felling, good at saws, not convinced he knows much about trees though. 

[Excels1or]

Yeah, he obviously knows his stuff but he's a bit too much. I really like August Hunicke, minus the bible bashing

[Albion435]

Yes an acquired taste and a bit of a nut.

His trucks and lifestyle are interesting. 

I agree he doesn't know that much about trees, especially hard wood. He knows saws and felling though.

His story is interesting, addiction as a young man and how he turned it around.

I used to watch his channel quite a bit. Learnt a few new techniques - nothing like you will be taught in UK, and good to see a different way of doing things. His PPE is often lacking- seen him wielding a saw with his crocs on. His videos were a bit too long to watch for me and I haven't watch for ages. It did appear a bit like a cult like following and method of delivery. I think definitely a money making venture the YouTube for him- which is fair enough.
