    Tree felling vids

    I don't know why he is fat, with all the walking around and wedge pounding he is doing. He must only cut a couple of trees a day. But the way he is doing it, that is all he'll get done anyway.

    SawBuilders! Muster Up!

    I've done it both ways. I would think most builders would buy the saw you want, then do their work to it. Cash up front though.

    Glad you all enjoyed the snag falling pdf. Has everyone seen the BC fallers guide? Some really good modern info in it. If anyone is interested, I can post it here.

    Hazard Tree Felling from 1943.

    http://www.nwcg.gov/branches/pre/rmc/htsc/toolbox-tree-felling/snag_felling_1943.pdf Some interesting reading of how trees were felled 70 years ago. Some tricks and tips from the old timers in here. It talks about using wedge plates, spring board, and running a cross cut saw.

    First Coos Bay cut and dealing with broken limbs

    I can definitely see that! Cutting trees that are actively burning is really interesting. The longer it is burning the weaker it is getting, so you either walk away from it or get after it. The thing that really sucks is the ground you are cutting is usually really hot.

    First Coos Bay cut and dealing with broken limbs

    One of the things I like about this cut is it is fast to put in. Three cuts, all of them cut across the grain of the wood. Like B said, when dealing with hazard trees the less time you spend under the tree the better. Boring definitely has its place on a leaner, but this cut just has less...

    First Coos Bay cut and dealing with broken limbs

    I agree with you a 100%. Just need to watch the side lean, which a wedge will fix. I set it as far forward as I can, so you don't cut the side of your wedge on the backcut.:X

    First Coos Bay cut and dealing with broken limbs

    The great state of Montana. I went to an advanced faller class a few years ago and spent some time cutting with Doug looking over my shoulder. I learned a lot from him. He was one of the best teacher I have been around.

    First Coos Bay cut and dealing with broken limbs

    The side cuts and the back cut are the same height. If they are off it will slow down the back cut because you are cutting more wood.

    First Coos Bay cut and dealing with broken limbs

    This is my first time posting here. I've learned a lot from many of you so I guess I should pay some info back. So is this what you wanted the stump to look like when you were done? When doing this cut two things will cause you problems. One is side lean and the other is the two side cuts not...
