    When dropping a tree, what are you guys watching??

    If cutting against the lean or into the wind I do the back cut first,set a wedge then face it, if the tree is set back on the bar,take the power head off the bar ,get another bar and cut the tree down again above the pinched bar,most of the time the bar lives

    The Official Axe Cordwood Challenge

    Split about 3 cords with the axe head you sent ,is close to the Arvika in performance ,i like it as a go to when doing firewood. Have not found a big enough tree to pound wedges with it yet.

    Did you have to thin the Arvika a lot to make a chopper out of it ?

    Axe restoration thread

    Just got it together ,have not tried pounding wedges yet ,it splits firewood real nice .has a little thicker blade section over the arvika so does not stick as bad doing firewood. Has a nice feel swinging it .

    Milling chain?

    Reg chain is fine at 10 degrees , .063 oils better than .050 if can get or have .063 i recommend it.for smoother boards don't get too aggressive on the rakers .025 is a good starting point

    Axe restoration thread

    Finally got this head hung i got from multifaceted ,4.5 lb with a shape similar to the hb arvika ,got a link racing axe handle because the eye was larger like a racing axe uses ,the grip was pretty rough ,so i reshaped it for comfort.
