You can trim the flare to create room/shape to cut a gob. I’ve never seen anyone trim a flare as a gob.

Gob/face cut not big/deep enough. My 2c anyway.

For once the guy in the tree has the easy job.

Those spindly bastards are a tricky calculation, how high to go? A fence? Meh, easily repairable.

It’s a bad one, but from what I watched this wasn’t their first rodeo, not amateurs.

If you go back to page 321 where I posted it in 2021, it has 2 ‘pages’ (swipe left) second one shows the fell from behind, the jack, the intended lay and all that.

A good advertisement for nicking the sides of the gob.

I know that they (August or whoever) get more money if you watch the long video, but 20 minutes is a big commitment.

How do you mean?

Because he is using a pushing chain, top of the bar, which ejects chip better, less chance of it binding. Hooks/dogs are useless when using the top of the bar.

Saw cuts nice for sure.

Skilful. Didn’t really understand the mechanics, but impressive stuff.

Seen that vid many times, blows my mind how close to his flip line he swings that razor sharp axe. Special breed

Good point. My nephew and my new groundsman (29 and 19 respectively) use it all the time to repair stuff and find out how something works to good effect. They seem better than us (older sorts) at sifting through the rubbish to get to the relevant vids.

Worked well anyway.

Murph will be furious.

I think this has been discussed before. Iirc it was a guy cutting high value walnut or similar, nice if it works, you’d need a tree with just the right lean. I shan’t be bothering.

Yes, I see that now you pointed it out.

Do you think more pull was applied while it was falling? Or was the pressure already there (Constant)

True.
