He put a 460 coil in that saw yet ?

Bone stock. The first quad port Stihl I've run. Totally different. Revs like my 385

Thanks Bitz! This was in Vermont, and my buddy Adirondackstihl brought the saws. I set up the face, and he got the honor. The Siz may have been unnecessary, but that tree was leaning right onto the beach, which would have been a cleanup disaster.

BTW, the 461 R is a really nice saw. Felt stronger than the woods ported 066

At 1:15 if the far side holding wood was gone the tree would have tipped. Its very easy to overcut your pull wood and then not get the pull you need to tip the tree. Getting that far side wood cut on a rotten sob is the tough part. Wedges can help. It had some forward lean, you just needed the side to fall in too. Obviously you guys got it where you you wanted, just future reference. The siz cut looked pretty though!

I very much appreciate u'r advice, and actually understand what you are saying. I hope Jeremy doesn't see this, but I wasn't comfortable having him under the lean side any longer than absolutely necessary. Especially on a rotten cottonwood on my property. I had intentionally dutched the gunning cut well past the undercut on the far side from the face. I wanted to let him fall the tree, with minimal danger to him, but have it go where I needed it. Look at me talkin' like I know stuff. I hope old bob misses this poast!

Awesome.

So your a TexaVermonter?

I lived in burlington for a few years when I was a kid, and my grandmama lived in southern Vermont until she died. I've always really liked pretty much everything about VT, except winter

I'm here a little bit early in the morning and sometimes for a couple of minutes late at night. Busy otherwise.
I saw your video.

The ugliest of the season so far. Logging by a highway, which is about to get wider some of these days.

Have fun limbing! You are about 80% as ruggedly handsome as KenJax and I. That's pretty good, congratulations!

 

[bitzer]

Holy limbing batman!

Hemlock or spruce?

It's a Norwegian Spruce. The picture doesn't show, but the stem forked after few steps. The forwarder operator was standing on the stump and caught me asking, whether he fancies stretching his legs. He passed it. It took three hours to clean up. While the bulldozer unit keeps closing in every minute.

PA wood Mike?

What did it die from? [emoji41]

 

[mdavlee]

Yep.

Not sure but there's a ton of it dead.

Haven't done any cutting in about three weeks with the heat and break downs but they have us having good saws back in the brush to make dams with the possibility of placing beaver on this job. I'll get some pictures when it's light. Got to love when you're tax dollars are at work.
