    Wall of Shame: Wannabe Experts

    It's thought that the slanted cut lives a stop behind the trunk's base to prevent it falling backward, like would a prop made out of a beam. But it's completely delusional, there's zero advantage about it, only potential or real problems.

    How'd it go today?

    Well...there ain't an exhaust boot, or any other boot I know of, so... ....I think it's kind of a pain to get at, maybe easier to remove cyl. Whole top end comes off as an assembly on a husky...good time to do a base gasket delete.

    I have tried and tried and cannot find a use for it other than crane picks. I actually tested it once on an already down log. Thick hinge and sloped back cut...enough wedge pounding, and sure enough, blew the back of the stump off. If you're very felling uneducated I guess it seems like the...

    No merit, just flawed thinking that it’s safer.

    What is it with that sloping back cut? I see it from time to time, does it have any merit anywhere, anytime? @Burnham

    Looking again on full screen desktop. Sure enough. Cut most of the hinge off. Only hairs left -and the sloping back cut pried/levered/skidded it fwd. If they had enough hinge and a level back cut, they would have only gotten pinched, not lost it over backward. EDIT Better yet, a slightly low...

    Suburban logging with forklift

    A 4’ and a 5’. Both 10-15’ of straight wood. Root balls....probably erosion control. Right now they are preventing cracking. One day I may clean one and turn a giant bowl.

    Suburban logging with forklift

    Slab tables, maybe decking etc. is the plan. Non lumber parts firewood of course.

    French-Canadian is my guess. But actually pulling on the line would have helped immensely. Just playing devils advocate here but maybe it was an insurance fraud thing. Owner hires Meth Mouth Tree to do the job, set it up to look like an accident, but intentionally put the tree on the house...

    Not withstanding that the man’s home was crushed which is the only really important thing here, but…… If he’s renting it, where’s the owner? If he’s on 1k a month, how much is the rent? Hasn’t worked since 19? What is the accent?

    So, in other words, if I were to buy a pro-noun and a noun, the answer would be yes, the intake boot.
