Jay I was LOL'ing at this Tom Foolery. I would have used some fashion of a notch personally.

Holy smokes. He pulled a stub over!

Its easy as pie. If you can hit the head of a nail, you can surely land the head of that hammer in the vicinity of the split.

Did that log pay good?

They do during the summer here.

One foot of the butt is worth 10 feet of the top.....

Stig I wonder how your forester would respond to you stabbing your saw into a veneer log with no notch?

Stig cuts veneer. Stig?

I don't see the advantage on that last picture. The flare in that log gets sawn off at the mill anyhow. 90 degree notch straight down the log and into the stump flare and you would have far more control. As long as your notch apex isn't deeper then the small end of that first log, no one could...

Holy smokes....

I was joking.

Ed, how come you guys don't use saw heads on your machines? Im curious. The pinch style cutter head seems to ruin the wood. Is it not common to preserve saw logs? Im curious. Teach me.

You'd been quiet, which was appreciated.

If sawing a notch in a mature tree is taking too much time on your job, you need to sit down and take a serious look at how you bid work.

I do it to small trees that don't have much force. It will be a cold day in hell when I take a 70 foot white ash and just stick a saw in the back.
