Bjarne it's wild how those big bushes are hollow in the middle of them but that's the way they are down here in my part of the country too never have understood why but they are hollow as well and another thing why don't you use a hydraulic jack for wedging those big ones off of the stump too

Hi James. The only time we use a jack is on a heavy lean that’s leaning the wrong way. Like over a boundary or bluff or gully or just somewhere where the tree will smash to pieces or will be unable to be retrieved by the logging crew. It’s a hassle packing a jack around all day to jack a few trees where with a few minutes few some extra wedges and a big axe will work. Also most of the time if it’s too much to wedge then it’ll usually be felled the other way or it’s pushed with another tree

I of course have to compliment the craft after working in the tree industry a little myself and know that dropping a big tree does take some skill, even when you don't have to worry about your surrounding property as much as your safety; still I hate seeing this big girls go down, they're amongst my favorite. We removed a lot of dead and dying Ash but I imagine this is for lumber which is a sad reason to cut the behemoths down :( Anywho thanks for sharing and job well done

good cutting
Back when I was repairing saws, one of my customers told me it took him nearly 5 hours to drop a Flooded Gum with a 3ft bar. He told me it measured up at just over 14ft across (diameter) & you couldn't get your fist in the pipe.
Used to go with my father logging in NZ, he had a Sthil with a 6ft blade on it, watched him cut a Rimu down it took some doin even with that bigga saw. I was 8 at the time and felt sad for the tree as it smashed to the ground.
Greetings from Easter Island 🗿. We don’t have any more tree problems here either. We cut them all down long ago.
Whats so hard about knowing how tall as tree is - or the fall zone of cutting a dropping a tree. Use right angle geometry. Walk out to the desired zone in which you want to fall the tree. Walk until you have an upheld hand from your eye to the top of the tree. The vertical height (side A) = horizontal distance (side B), and the hypotenuse (side C). The distance where you are standing is the tree elevation and drop distance. One then only needs to make the proper cuts, falling the tree in the desired direction
that's amazing, a very calculating woodcutter, success

The reason for cutting trees is a the tenure holder needs a return on his investment. Cutting Permit applied for by the tenure holder and approved by the BC government . At least on Crown land (public land). Trees are cut after a great deal of assessment and research by professionals.

@BjarneButler
2 жыл бұрын
Exactly, not worth the time and packing around a bar I’ll hardly use. And really a 42” bar is only 6 inches longer then my regular bar. The 42” is generally used on very big trees that are on a steep slope where you’ll have a hard time reaching the far side and those trees usually involve springboards too. I used to cut 10footers with a 33” tsumura bar for years. The trick there is to make your undercut opening very wide that way you can fit the power head in the tree to complete the cut and to cut the middle if needed. cedar trees that big are usually hollow in the middle or rotten enough to not need cut. Having a super long bar may allow you to cut that one tree down slightly quicker but that’s it. To be a high production faller on the coast you also have to be efficient, no wasted steps no wrong moves or mistakes. Little mistakes are fine, but overall, efficiency and consistency day after day is what counts, not how pretty your stump looks haha. Ok that’s my off topic tangent haha. And I know it’s contradictory to me taking the time to film these videos but I have no problem of putting down enough wood to earn my rate.
