Thats a mighty fine tall stump ya got there, and no rot either.

Just there to the right is part of an old growth stump I tried to chunk down and finally gave up, so that was as long as I could go.

[Skeans]

Yes they can be, there's a few there that will have to be jacked over because of the property line.

Nice sized wood skeans. What bar length you runnin? Semi-skip I see. And whats that other saw doing hidin in the bushes?! You jack that one?

 

[Skeans]

Jacked it, full skip on the 60"" on the 395, semi on the 32" on the 372, the 372 is for starting the cuts otherwise you throw the chains on those long bars with all the droop they have, then limbing and bucking after the first cut is made.

Looks like fun! How does that 395 pull that much chain?

 

[Skeans]

It does ok pulling it, it's been hopped up here locally and with a 7 pin sprockets and good sharp chain it pulls through the wood.

I'd call it a tapered block face.

 

[Skeans]

I'd call it a tapered block face.

Yeah I'd agree the main thing was to get the limb side up so more was left in the brush.

Lol yep main thing is saving that stuff out too much value there anymore, would of been nice if it was solid oh well I know a few guys that buy those rounds for water features and planters so it doesn't hurt so much.
