    Wedging Small Diameter Trees

    Twenty dozen is even better. I'm putting in my bi-annually order from Bailey's this week. 20 doz hardheads, 10 rolls of 3/8 chain and then all the other stuff. All pretty much ½ price of what it sells for here:D

    Archimedes said, give me a place to stand on, and I'll move the earth. And no, it is not me in the lever picture. I scissored it from the net.

    I could probably bend the bark on it a little:lol: But in my pulp days, those levers were a BIG help, that and agreeing with God about which way to fall the trees.;)

    Wedging Small Diameter Trees

    I use a felling lever a LOT, Fiona. The one I swear by is the long Stihl model, it is about 120 cm long, that one will really give you some lift.

    Wedging Small Diameter Trees

    Burnham, the reason is that this is taught as a beginner's tecnique. When beginners work on small trees ( as they do in all other parts of the world than the PNW, where fallers probably start right out in the big stuff, since that is all you have( crap, the smilies aren't working)) they have a...
