There are a whole bunch now ! 😆

I used my narrow Muller alum wedge vertically into the side of the gap face (tension side) here, hoping to save time popping the whole face out at once. Unfortunately, I got a jagged one third and had to fiddle around with saw and axe considerably, edited out of video. Maybe I will post the long...

Species specific technique right there. River birch being the optimal species, elm would be another good one, spruce maybe. But then again ye old bomb pad is real easy to make for non impact turf jobs. Or cut it low enough so the log comes in flat. Then again the longer I’ve been in business...

For many species, that wouldn't work. But it sure did work fine there.

Beast!!

There are 12 days of Christmas and not one of them is in November!

We pulled hard about 180 to lean. I didn’t get fancy with the cuts, just tapered hinge to hold against the secondary lean towards the camera.

Understandably so.

Cheers Sean, he trains hard. Has a good fight IQ and listens to his coaches. He started Muay Thai at 4 years old so has a few year of training behind him. But it is his determination that impresses me. Very calm and collected and seems to take it in his stride. Best thing to compliment this...

He sounds like a badass! Looks like he trains hard!

I've recently found that whizzy/ sizwheels help steer some hard-to-steer branches-- doug-fir.

In guessing that's a thick hinge, pulled hard, giving lots of fiber pull. Triple hinge/ whizzy might work enough without such fiber pull. Maybe not!

He's on TB.

He was a wizard. Wonder what he's doing these days

Haakon was back in the ring today. First Muay Thai fight in 4 years. Adult C class, fighting a 22 year old guy. Haakon put on a technical masterclass for two rounds and battered the opponent. The opponent quit on his stool and didn’t want to come out for round 3.

No dipsticks blows my mind

Interesting. I never thought of using no back cut but river birch is extremely strong like that. My usual method is lean it over using a narrow face (short: not open) and then repeat as needed making new felling cuts above the previous one until the trunk is parallel to the ground. Funny how...

Bendy river birch. I had a similar size Norwegian Spruce do that even with a back cut.

The new one are getting worse by the year. Full of gimmicky unnecessary crap that breaks and take things away like grease fittings, dipsticks, keys that don't go dead and strand you etc. etc.

Saw on TB Been trying to figure out how to do this forever.
