It looks like an intimate group that you have there, Willard. Bundling up the kids and bringing them too...:)

A lot of those African woods are super hard, heavy, and tough. I remember a company that was selling different species for flooring. A well sharpened saw would make life easier there, or at least a new one like in the vid.

I worked in the woods with a guy from Africa once. Strong mofo, but when it came to cutting, he became a wild thing. He quit after a tree he felled hit someone in the head and knocked them out.

On the ground, like for a Humboldt face, using the top of the bar for cutting upwards with a sharp chain goes ok, but once it gets a little dull, it sure adds to the work part on larger trees...hard on the back too.

Good to know. :)

I might be doing it wrong, but when topping, using the top of the bar for the face cuts and back cut is very frequent, especially when reaching over to the far side.

Pretty much b, but maybe it helps to have a mental image of how far you want your notch to cut into the tree. If you are shooting for a third, for example, you can get a feeling for that from the side you are cutting from.
