Ya all cut wood the most wasteful way eh? :dizzy: Looks like an alternative to a log splitter ;)

The most I had was cutting a 28" dia stump and had chips pile up to the top of my ankle.

Lets see you load 36" rounds onto a splitter all day. Plus, making noodles is FUN!

I save noodles and use them for firestarter in my insert. Works awesome!

So what chain makes good noodles?

I have a RS chain that just make good sized wood chips.

Already have a few tanks thru my 361 as of today (felled another staghorn summac, 45 foot...dead one this time)

Sounds like a excuse for me to make pancakes out of the 2 big dogwoods my good neighbor on the opposite side had felled by a tree co.
They just ditched it on the town's property.

I'd need to get a timberjack, not sure if the local home depot carries them.

Can't wait to have at least 10 tanks run thru it to get it broken-in and get the power increase ;)

Dang, we split a ton of popular at a tree job this summer so it would fit in the chipper. It sucked lugging the big chunks to the chipper, but the splicing was a lot of fun because the climber put a wicked sharpening on the chain. Way faster than a new chain.

Someone give me a excuse to cut these up in my backyard (neighbor trees fallen into my backyard):

BTW the trees with the orange and yellow ribbons are cut down already by me...staghorn summac's.

almost hit my yew's I relocated to the backyard...and it's like candy to the deers :dizzy:

It'd be funny to randomly place all the pancakes all over the backyard and watch the bad side neighbor call the town for cutting trees down in which the building inspector comes out to find this is a joke :laugh:

Cutting wood long ways is what makes noodles.

Not ta get off topic (Noodling and Piles...wihout proctology) but skip Northern tool for the Timber jack. I got mine on a whim and the stupid thing bent right at the head on the first 20" Oak it was used to roll, and I never got a chance to use it as a Jack. Cheap Chineese iron.
If Ya want mine, it's on the scrap pile behind the barn with the welding scrap.

Dogwood? What are ya waiting for?:D


Stay safe!

If you haven't seen tree sling'r youtube videos; then you haven't seen a pile of sawdust.

He cuts some circles then goes into the end and puts down a pile of dust that is awesome.
