I mostly use 20".

That was far better then the redundant tall pine speed line videos. I enjoyed that.

The guy is moving fast as hell and uses editing to cram scenes together and cut out filler. That tree could have taken 6 hours for all we know. He was just making himself look like he's a whiz for YouTube. Next.

Yes Cory.

Two things. Give me credit for not being a phony like half the tree workers that beg about "that giant I just took down today". Also, he's a better faller by a good bit then I am(he is a logger and hand cuts evwvrything. I don't race to get to trees before him. I let him have some seniority and...

Fellas, by the way, I did not cut that tree down. That's a local logger you see there that I'm in on this project with. I should have clarified it wasn't a glory shot of me.

That's not a thicket actually. It's a bit of thorns by mostly the tops of small downed trees that we laid down. It's a fence line of a farm. The pipelines we are cutting sometimes run across farm fields and any trees over 48" tall get the axe.

With a big old open face notch too. West coasters would have been rioting.

Put a saw with a long bar in a skidder to go back in the woods to get started for the day. Then let me know how it went. Or attach it on the outside of the skidder in select cut work and let me know how it went. Eastern hardwoods get bore cut. Standard back cut style doesn't work. Your butt...

I'm 5'7, trim, and wide framed, especially in the shoulders. Not a hulking specimen by any means. Jonsered handlebars run just about straight across the top of the saw. No angle like stihl and husky saws. It makes you feel initially like you are reaching way out for the handle bar. The...

It's a matter of taste. There's no right or wrong answer. Do you crap before brushing your teeth in the morning or after? Either way the end result is the same. Strictly preference. We can never say which guy is right or wrong in his sequence if both guys hit their mark with the tree in the end.

Augusts videos are the exception, not the rule. He sort of took that scene to a whole new level. Comparing good quality footage to his videos isn't really a fair comparison. If his work is the standard, then pretty much every other video out there would be garbage. You follow? He's in a whole...

Willie that was a hell of a whack someone took out of the bucket. I tip my hat. These go pros are deceiving but based on just the diameter, using the saw bar as a gauge, that looked to be a hell of a top that got cut in one shot.

You can set the direction over and over with the angled cut first method. Eventually you'll start chewing deeper into the tree after awhile but that's no different then making the horizontal cut first and gnawing here and there until you've got it set right.

You like jonsereds? As a husky user, I enjoy their performance but I don't care for the ergonomics.

I was forced to cut Holmens way when I learned to log. I can't go back. I can, but it feels like wearing my shoes on the wrong feet. I never miss my cuts doing it this way either. But, to each their own. If the ergonomics on the saw suit me, I can start my diagonal cut dead on where I want it...

Actually its very common practice for hardwood loggers to buy a new saw every year if they hand cut all their work.

Me either, actually. I'm mocking the lunacy of willingly creating such chaos at the stump.

Just gotta know what you're doing when you set a tree up to chase you like a snake to the scene of the accident.

That's how I fall trees when I'm mad at my legs and want to get rid of them.
