Well...i usually am..lol...i've said before im a nice guy once you get to know me...lol. I may come off a little strong sometimes...but its all meant for good. Atleast i know no that he actually can pull the trigger on a saw...thats the first step. I admit i had high doubts for him...but i actually seen a video...and actual sawing....thats a start.
Hey maybe i should start using my limit on smiles for each post..LOL:jester: Everybody starts somewhere....i see a start...not a pro.By "common notch", is that referring to "conventional notch" or is referring to something else ?

Nice trees??? Do you have a roof over your head, and/or wipe your ####ing ass?? Jesus ####ing christ! ####ing people. Here I sit with a broken finger, toe, torn knee...........so people can wipe their butt and stay dry.
JUtawr was prolly trolling just as hard as Brother-PNW-HBRN for that post, tho...
Why wouldn't you consider an Open Face or Humboldt or Block face
for felling up hill ? Just asking...
Apologies for the rant. Little out of line there. Had a good wreck yesterday. Should have two broken legs, but I got lucky. Lucky.... for being a dumb ass. Some days I just have a bad attidude, lol.
My apologies, just a little owly lately - Sam.
-Hope you all are well, stay safe.

No problems here Sam.
Some day you will treasure the little boo-boos as they will remind you of the ones that almost got you.

Thanks Randy and Roma.
Back to the original question. As mentioned before, Doug Dent's book is a really good overview of the basics. Easy to understand and the next best thing to packing jugs.
When I first got started, my future wife actually called him and bought a copy from him. He sent a nice note and signed the book. Good dude. - Sam

I hope you only make "spar poles" out of little tiny trees you can push over. Big spars are hard to fall. I suppose you know why so I won't bother to explain myself. Have you ever fallen a large spar BTW?
Oh and HBRN you have never answered this but I'll ask again. Is your name Scotty?

heal up sam, it sucks to hurt.
Yes. And try to heal up properly. Those things do come back to haunt you. Like if I take off for a hike up a trail, I have to carry a roll of ace bandage now for just in case an old thing causes troubles.

yup, when the years pass by all those hurts will really stove you up.
Thanks, lots of ice and the knee brace at work today seem to be working well. Also been using that "icey hot"?? I think that is what it's called, works good.
Back on topic again, I've heard Jerry Beranek's book is good as well, but I have not read it. I'm sure it is full of good advice though, that man knows his stuff.
