Yes they did. I have done some dicey shit, that I definitely would not want to be showing on camera. I would not have posted that...and if I did, I would not be trying to make it look like it was just another day. Hopefully that guy is young and dumb, but smart enough to know that he had...

Nice...old growth fir, by god.

Salvage any decent logs out of that Willy? Also, was wondering if that was pavement you were falling it across?

Matching up cuts can be tough for any of us. I was always envious of the guys who had really good timber falling mechanics. I wanted the butt of every tree to look like a table top, and it used to piss me off when I would mis-match on a big tree, and have to dink around, shaving wood. I...

Many thanks Burnham :)

I prefer to just cut and run, and let the trees go where they please :) Kinda off topic, but what the hell does "gob" mean? I have a lot of computer pro timber fellers slathering my youtube channel with that terminology.

I realize that a guy would not want to be boring heartwood out of a rotten cedar...I have cut many of them as I lived on prince of wales island, in Alaska for for years. Maybe it was a generalization I was making about Canadian videos, but I have seen videos, regardless of where they were shot...

Yessir. Although, I have seen some of those canadian videos where they allow way more fiber pull than I would though.

No, I was saying that I don't like to pull fiber on nice butt logs, which is why I bore the heart out, usually from the undercut. I was agreeing with Stig :) I also bore on spars as well.

Yessir, those are the same reasons I do it.

I hate seeing heartwood get pulled when it doesn't have to, but what went on in that video just seems crazy. When I went to the swamps, some of the locals were commenting on our stumps, and were telling us that they "slick stump", to avoid fiber pull...and I guess this video proves that they...

Badass! :lol:

Good one Willie! Nice truck :)

That is the best way to deal with a situation like that...at least that is what my anger management counselor tells me :)

Sound wisdom. Hopefully someday I can share some, as you do, with a lad such as myself.

Ger, you always seem so steady in your vids as well as your posts, and obviously your experiences speak volumes as to your nature. I have always admired such steady aptitudes...something I strive for, but seem to come up short.

I have thrown a few whils't videoing, but, my better judgement told me to edit out. My style, and every one elses probably differ by a great margin:) If somebody stole a piece of my equipment like just happened to you, I would be at my worst!

Hopefully someday it will be better for me. Like I said, it has gotten harder from when I was younger, before my wreck.

If I do throw a riggin fit, I do it with style! No, seriously, it is a struggle for me, and I wish it were that easy to take care of. I was always a hot head when I was younger(kind of went with the territory of being a young timber faller), but in '02 I had a couple second growth redwood...
