Tree felling vids

Wow that big tree takedown. Seemed like a really good team, calm methodical and safe as practical.
 
It's an ongoing debate.
We know people who swear they've seen one, but that's as far as they'd ever go in telling.
People who spent time deep in the bush.
Then there are research projects, surveys etc. ad infinitum.

With the amount of wilderness bush and the are 100's of thousands of hectares, it's possible, but probable??? Who really knows.
 
ahh, dull chain blues!

and an idiot groundsman, no other way I can phrase it besides the groundie not realizing what happens, tis the reason for training days
 
Guy pushing makes me shake my head. Undermine the COG and no need to push. Wouldn’t make a good chest pounding moment though.
Guy flying through the air makes my whole body hurt. If I remember right, both the flying guy and the climber got messed up pretty bad.
 
Undermining COG on a large stem like that takes a fair amount more cutting/time. I made a thin hinge and thought it might go on its own given the slight favor. Coulda wedged it but pushing was quicker.

Geez the flack on that vid, tough crowd :/:
 


Do either or both links work?

The dust mask saved the day, yesterday. What a difference!

That was the bulk of my day, 28" bar for a tank, then 32" bar for 2/3s of a tank.

Thanks Wraptor!!
