I just rrad through all of it, and what a great discussion it was, as long as " The World's greatest treeman ( With bucket access, of course)" kept his nose out of it. The rest of us managed to keep civil and agree that we are all different when it comes to falling trees.

As for intelligent response, I'll never come near your mastery: " nothing you've done has impressed me I've done stuff that you have never done I put trees on the on the ground in a way you can't even imagine I'm not bound by your rules that it has to be perfect it has to look perfect the saw...

What you are saying is the exact reason the Whizzy/Sizwheel, whatever works so good on extreme side leaners. The backcut on the compression side is level with the bottom of the face cut ( Traditional, not Humboldt), making it harder for the fibers to crumble under the load. Lil' derail, but...

Very much species dependant. On a Hornbeam I can see that happening, on an Ailanthus, not. Long, strong fibers versus short brittle ones.

But then your treefalling experience is rather limited. Compared to those who log for a living. Too thick a hinge will simply break instead of flexing. A thinner one will flex and hold for longer. All according to species, of course, in some, the fibers are so brittle that thin or thick makes...

Murphy is not just any residental tree guy. He is someone who apparently considers himself good enough to go out and make videos to show the World how it should be done. So it would IMO behoove him to at least have the simple basics down. You'll notice that I wasn't the first to point that out.

" here I make a double cut to get the notch clean" Nope, took you 4 tries. Then you couldn't get the back cut level. For a Youtube treefalling guru, you sure can't use a saw very well.
