I've asked this question in my local area with no results..How do you know if you have or cut a "Curly Maple"???What do you look for???I'm clueless....:confused:
Yup thats what I heard RIGHT before I ran.This is why I'm trying to learn other felling techniques on here,after that happened I believe that a wedge is merely a CRUTCH for the lack of good felling SKILLS..
While trying to wedge the back lean out of ash,I had the hinge snap!!!!The tree road up on the wedges and came over backwards!!! Ran like a little school girl,from that day on I learned you cant wedge them all.
I will cut a "bell bottom" off if it is going to interfere with felling or wedging.Makes for a cleaner log and easier to load.
But as for what your are saying,I never seen it so I'm eager to learn.:)
Well at least some one understood....Bad enough to break down in the rain..Hope you get some business out of it,KEEP the officer HAPPY and you'll get more..;)
