angle of the dangle

I rarely have the room to flop trees, but believe me - I will when I can!

Accurate calls on dropping spars helps, too, especially if trying to large saw logs.

Pull out your smart phone, open clinometer app, degrees and percent slope, look down at an accurate 45 degree angle on flat ground and know.

Is that app already in an iPhone?

Sean, what clinometer app do you use?

 

[SouthSoundTree-]

Called "clinometer". From the Google play store. With a Google wallet, I think, you can get $2.xx worth of upgrades to use the camera rather than edge of the phone. It also has a bubble level.

Jed, really, it's a piece of wood with an angled rope hole, and a tether. Pre zk1.

A stiff tether, even better. I got the high tech stiff tether on my zk1, Electrical tape, not duct tape, wrapping a stick to the original Tech Cord tether.

On my wooden Wrench, made from a hammer handle, I tethered with home depot accessory rope.
