131 - Small but Dangerous - Felling Trees with Echo Chainsaw

Ойын-сауық

In this video I fell a couple dead trees that are dangerous to cut by exercising safe tree cutting techniques.

Spending time outdoors doing projects with various machines and tools - anything from cutting trees, firewood, clearing brush, milling wood, plowing snow, reviewing, repairing & fabricating equipment. Doing landscaping and maintenance on my forested property using my Kubota tractor.
And its not all work!! Gotta take time to play - after turning my pond into a skating rink, and a whole bunch more of outdoor activities.

    Very nice Paul. Dead trees are unpredictable and that was a dense area you were working in. The lever was a nice idea, I have never seen that before. Looks like spring has arrived in your area as well. Have a great weekend, Ben 👋😎👍🪵🪓

    Well done Paul 👍🏻. I had one similar to the first one and I'm not too brave when using a chainsaw so I tied a rope to it fairly high and then pulled it with the tractor👍🏻😳. You can hear the sound of spring in your video 👍🏻. Lots of rain coming here soon 🥴. Have a great weekend Paul 👍🏻🙋🏼‍♂🙂

    Thanks you Luc! Using a rope keeps you at a nice safe distance. Yeah the geese were flying overhead when we did the video and there were a lot of birds chirping away. The rain will help to thaw out the ground so I hope we get lots. You too have a great weekend!

    I've never seen that method before Paul. Have to watch for "Chico's" as they call them here. Stuff falling from overhead. Nice work! 😊👍🌴

    Even little trees like that can be so dangerous if they barberchair or split on you. Nicely done!

    Thanks! They most certainly can be Brian. Regardless of the size you need to be mindful that something can go wrong. Have a fantastic weekend Brian!
