It is interesting that on page 30 in Figure 13 they show "The optimal shape of the felling hinge?"
It reminds me of a gutted hinge..it is tapered from both sides to the middle so that the strength is in the outside parts of the hinge. capisce?
Good reasoning there, Jed...this is a great discussion. It's been a good thread to focus on what is happening at the stump in the falling process. Y'all keep it going...you are doing a good job of keeping our resident FIN (f***ing internet expert) engaged. :D
