Was neat.jpeg.

I've worked with a ton of cranes landing blind and a few helicopters, some placing generators or 500kV power lines.

The fact that we can do things like this with precision still blows my mind daily.

Up here these guys do a ton of power line work.

Imagine being hooked to a few thousand pounds of wire, and you are pulling it through pulleys on massive poles....not a vertical lift, pulling it sideways...


Like...fuk that!

1. An architects idea of how to build something extremely expensive and esthetically pleasing, but pointless

2. These jobsites are seasonal cottages accessible only by boat. Getting a crane out there would have literally been impossible

3. I manage a company building high end cottages on boat access only properties. The nearest road is 9 miles away from the site

1. It did look like shiit. I was under the impression it was for some industrial application.



4. What's your company's revenue? Feel free to give me a range

5. Profit? Range as well

6. Is this what you did prior to starting this business/did you work in the same field/industry?

It ranges with the jobs we do. We have about 17 carpenters.

I was a carpenter before this, and started with the company about 12 years ago. After 3 years they asked me to manage it.

And that particular cottage is ultramodern, so ya I can see why it would look industrial

Cool video OP. That was a long air ride for just one piece. And for $4600! Must be nice to have that kind of money. How much did the cap cost?

Also, from a carpenter's perspective, do companies typically overcharge the people that buy these high end places or are they really that expensive to build in General? (excluding random helicopter lifts)

Cool vid.

Should invest a bit of money in a camera to make the visuals decent. Could get a decent amount of viewers with a few ideas, if you're actually looking to grow your channel.
Think of how many cottagers there are in Ontario alone, and how many DIY'ers there are out there that look up tips and cool videos, etc.

Cap was around 40 grand. Some kind of chemically blackened stainless steel. The company made it with no idea how to get it up there. They refused to make it in even two pieces, but suggested an elaborate system of scaffolding, and twenty guys lifting...all would have cost way more than the chopper.

lol at architects.

We charge the same whether its one of the richest canadian families we work for, or some random.

Our prices are such that we are having fewer low budget clients though. Inflation is a bitch.

The aircraft limitations established by the manufacturer are set in such a way that the aircraft is capable of doing much more than listed limitations. It doesn’t matter if the aircraft is empty, or at max allowable gross-weight, from outside the aircraft will never look as though “it is struggling”.

Does that make sense?

I need to decide what I want it to be I think. They say to do 100 videos and then you will have an idea based on which ones do well, etc.

That is a good situational awareness measuring tool. It has flaws of course. Flying is super safe man. Even if it does seem crude and shady.

Whatever protocols, maintenance schedules etc are in place industry wide, it does seem to work.

For us ground dwellers it seems that they are flippant about it, but I would say they are just confident.
