Cut 1/2 the back cut, place wedge. Cut other half of back cut after driving wedge.

Well done :thumbup:

Yeah, thats a nice log. We don't have much of that here. Most are pretty garbage. The ranchers, farmers and miners made sure they put some metal in the older standing trees. Probably why they are older and standing :lol: Big ol pines here, you cut standing up right unless it has lumber value...

Not to forget to mention less fibers that have to ....

You missed the point danny boy

Core of tree (heart wood) more stiff than outer near cambium grasshopper More flexible, bend like reed in wind.

:lol:

Yup, Im in Stigs camp... Shims. I think I carry 6 in the truck in case. Most the time 2 - 3 wedges pushes them where I want.

:thumbup: Nice hinges right there.

Well, its a good trick when you don't have a lot of room for the saw bar, chain and wedge in the back cut on smaller trees. If I have the room, Ill often bore the back cut and hinge like you would for a head leaner that might barber chair, wedges in behind the hinge from the sides. But even...

Below the back cut, bore into tree towards the face spaced like couple inches or so. Set wedges as you go. then you can alternate your strikes. Like they are staked with a little wood in between. My take on it. Clear as mud? :lol:

Cory, I think Sean has shown that before

I think I would have cut above or below that branch union though. :thumbup:

Loud creaking and cracking for certain Rajan. Few neighbors came out to look about :drink: Popped pretty loud on that release.

Bored back cut on a 36 DBM head leaning grey pine. Tripped from the back strap. Pulled some fiber it did.

:lol:

Yes, could have ended poorly thicker as well.

Auto correct spelled fascia as facial.... see what I am dealing with Here? Trying to constantly correcting the auto connect.

Facial boards... exterior trim.... Yeah, releasing on doubles is interesting.

Oh yes. That, and they are protected species in .CA. HOLY FASCIAS BATMAN!
