The Official Work Pictures Thread

[Bermy]

When being taught to fell trees, the instructor told us 'to imagine balancing a ball bearing on the bar of the saw...' when lining up to do the bottom of the face or putting in the back cut.
It works most times

The other thing was hand placement on the handle...it's curved for a reason.

Perches...I leave them when its obvious a bird or critter is using it, and its not a detriment to the garden!

I love you Scott.

Don't take it the wrong way dude... just sayin... was a really good pic aright?

A couple of beech that he dropped. Kept them nice and tight. I figured Stig would like to see some beech pics

I always enjoy that

Will be able to post some myself in a while, we've got a major logging job coming up.

Sweet, Stig.

Peter: yeah, those Spruces are pigs. Nice one.

Tom: I'm gettin jealouser, and jealouser, dude. That's a beautiful snowfall too.

Tall and tight, today. These pigs were 135' and 140'... probably only 33"dbh on the big one. Tight like a tiger.



...AND... The chipper breaks down...



I sit on my ass for like, two hours before the boys get back with another one...



...And my groundman cuts through the 3/4 Sampson with the chainsaw...



...AND... Victor goes in to the doctor with a hurt back. What a stinkin day, man. All the same... here's what a beautiful day in Bellevue, WA looks like.

Cool pics, Jed. Looks like the air might have been a little thin up there.

[Grendel]

Jed!! I'm jealous man. PNW is just THE spot.

Great looking spars. Sorry about that 3/4". . .

 

[treebilly]

Sorry you had a bad day Jed. It happens on occasion.
Long day for me with no pics. Tired and should be going to sleep soon

 

[Limbrat]

That's two whoppers in a heck of a tight spot Jed. You just gonna fall the spars?

 

[Grendel]

Get some rest Rich.

He looks very reliable in the vid, a working man.

 

[sotc]

Ha, slow news around here, seems like we do this once or twice a year

 

[Grendel]

Yeah Willie, I hear it's stormpocalypse out there! Stay dry man!

 

[biggun]

Tight work Jed. Looked a lovely day for it apart from the chipper and rope incidents.

 

[Jed]

Oh it was Rich. AND... Here's what an average day in Bellevue, looks like...



We figured between four and five cords. Way rottener weather, but a way better day... go figure.

 

[Jed]

Did you get the stems down yet?

At long-last, brother. I was terrified working over a Mahogany deck all day. Nothing amiss, thank God.

 

[Raj]

Very nice!

 

[Sgriff]

I'm assuming you rigged down the spar Jed?
lol I know it's kinda stupid question but its all cut up in your pictures 😖
