I took a job to "saw out" all the material for a "long" covered porch that's going on a huge cabin. In this "deal", i also agreed to harvest all the white pine logs i'll need from my customers woodlot. Now that the weather has warmed up, i got started on that project today!
Here's the first tree i chose to harvest...
After cutting all of the lower limbs off the trunk, cleaning out around the tree, and knotching the trunk, i put my "timberjack" in place, and started my cut... Once i was in a bit, i pounded a wedge in, and sawed to the "hindge".
Then i pulled the saw out, and cranked the handle on the timberjack... and over it went..
once it was over i started "limbing" the trunk,
and then sawing the logs out,
Here's how i go to the woods, i'd rather use my ATV and then go back for the tractor after i have all the logs sawn out, and now it's time to go get the tractor!
