[QUOTE="Billy_Bob, post: 3354714, member: 7722"] The Humboldt is for logs being sent off to the mill. They want every inch of usable wood to cut lumber. More $$. For firewood it does not matter. Whatever is easier for you! You can even make it 90 degrees with cuts in the log portion as well as the stump portion (both Humboldt and conventional) to keep the hinge attached after the tree falls. (To make it easier for bucking.) For stump height, I would ask the property owner what they prefer. (Being nice...) If too low and grass and weeds grow up and cover the stumps everywhere, then people could trip on them or vehicles run into them. So the property owner may prefer they be high enough so they can be seen. Or may not care. [/QUOTE]
