@skywalke112583 Hey Man no wonder... They are Europeen with a different way to do it! Keep in mind that they usually have two hours for lunch! So taking the long way is normal... :-)
I would advise against felling this way. The sawyer never looks up and he cuts through most of his holding wood. Yes it worked out (thank god) but I would call that an example of how not to fell a tree.
I don't get it. I've dropped trees that big w/o all the big ta-do. Can someone explain the whole rig-a-marole with the bore cut, stopping a few times and playing with wedges?
the wedge popped out right at the end...whew..that's crazy. I would have crapped myself thinking the tree would have caught some wind and fell the opposite direction. It didn't so...good cutten.
@kimokanka You are probably not using a big enough extension cord. For that distance and a 3% voltage drop and assuming a 15 amp.load, you should use a cord with 1/0 Copper or if you want to save some weight, use 3/0 Aluminum. The weight of the metal in the cord (IE not counting the weight of the insulation) for copper would be 949 lbs and for aluminum around 456 lbs. I do realize this is a joke but the figures are correct. lol
did you know the sahara desert used to be called the sahara forest untill a bunch of rednecks with chainsaws went there, now not a still tree to be seen from miles on end
@aityadeen123 It is called forestry management. Every tree that is harvested is replaced and your beautiful trees are thus replaced with healthy new ones. Once a tract is logged it may be 30 years or so before man touches it again. Im sorry that logging videos bother you this bad, but if they do, just dont agonize yourself by watching them :) Thanks
that guy is a lucky SOB that the tree didn't fall wrong he cut too close to his knotch , i would have started the bore cut higher to pull the tree over better ,,, he should have left 6 inches at the rear of the tree , switch sides and bore cut back from the knotch , placed wedges on both sides away from the knotch ,,, then go to the back and cut through at an angle down toward the bore cut ,,,, the tree would have sat there if it wasn't going to fall right,,,, then hit the wedges to fall it
that fucking notch is ridiculous - it should be bigger than that; 1/3
and why the hell would you cut at that theight for a tree that tall!?! lol
that split second to look up vs arch your back up and look (which would probably ache and cause you to slow down looking up) could mean life or death, cut at waist height for better saw control and then save the last cut for later.. - always have an escape route, and if you are pulling it with a rope always be 1 & 1/2 times the height of the tree away
hehheheheheeh ty cipo nie umiesz scinać to sie tego nie chytej a na huja ci tyle szmatów hehheheh i po huj ci te dodatkowe klinki hehehehehe wy amerykanie heheheheehhe cioty
some of you are complete idiots the lad did a good job the wedge was to stop the tree traping on the bar if it sat back an the wedge was to aid in the fall of the tree the cut may be slower but safer many people have died in the forestry industry as a result of going fast or being not properly trained the gob is a good size so fuck you anyone who think they know it all ul die first
hello youttube, you mught think im to young to handle a chainsaw im 14 years old and my grandpa has thritis. is there any chainsaw recomended for me? were cutting about 1 2 foot oak trees/maple/ and popple. if there are any sugjestions i would greatly appreciate it. thank you
I'm just trying to figure out why the bore cut? Leaving splinters is fine and what you want. Shows a good hinge and no danger of the saw being pinched by cutting through it, but a bore cut is a cut we only make on bigger timber where the bar is smaller than the material. Either way i've seen a hell of alot worse and i'd hire him. Just needs to be a tad quicker in a production situation.
@woodman2055 Yes, I agree. I use the bore/plunge cut on heavy leaners, too. Both directions. If the tree is leaning back, bore to your hinge, cut back, leave strip of wood uncut in back. Cut under or over remaining wood 6 or 7 inches. Drive it over with the next tree that has a more favorable lean...... Heavy favorable lean, bore to good hinge, cut from hinge to back of tree. Works awesome!
How that tree went where he "wanted it to" is beyond me. Ok guy, if you are going to bore this bitch, first bore your center strip in the face cut, (relieves a lot of negative tension and force in the center of the tree.), then commit to your bore. Go all the way through, and come back leaving a nice little strap. Then using metal wedges (real men don't use wedges) on the left and right side of your back cut, hammer them in and nick your strap. Probably a safer approach to that method.
As was said, everything is wrong here; no stump shot, i.e., no hinge wood, irrational method/use of back cut. His wedge method is just using up time where the tree could spin and/or barber chair killing him. You see splinters on the stump and this means a poor cut. He would die on a high pro loggin' show where they cut alder and have window makers 7 conks. Oh and total BS on the Husky dig. If you've never run a 2101XP, or 3120XP, then don't criticize.
By no means do I claim to be an expert on how to run a chainsaw... but like others have commented. I don't think a lot of people understand the talent it takes to safely "fell" a tree. This guy sort of scares me to watch him cut a tree. Chainsaws are very unforgiving and if you don't know what you are doing you will pay the price eventually. To . He is wearing a helmet with a face guard, chaps, heavy boots, and set of gloves. At least give him credit on that
@kxdirtrider85 back cuts is for trees that you can pull down with muscle power, he is doing a thing in the end that is called a safe corner, it stops the tree from falling instantly, he can wait and see if there is anything in the way, and after that he cuts of the safe corner and the tree falls when he want, safe but slow.
wtf took so long i own a logging company wtf was he wearing lol i dont think i even own half that shit lol i would of fired some one on the spot if they cut like that
Just stumbled across this .. This is quite the worst example of how to fell a tree I have ever seen in my life. What on earth is this guy doing ! ! ! What is with all the cuts and the wedges ? I cannot believe what I am watching...
what a retarded argument, I like husky, but honestly who cares as long you like your saw. Never heard someone get rid of a husky or stihl, so stop bitchin
stihls a good falling saw fast cutting with magnum muffler,huskies a low down grunter good on the landing i've used both and are still the best high production saws in the world for logging as for the video he wouldn't have to wedge so much if he kept his backcut level and a even hinge wood the tree was sitting on his wedge his finishing cut just about lined up with the bottom cut of the scarf ,that can turn nasty
What is up with cutting down christmas trees on christmas. If you are for the world like I am fully now you need to plant not one tree but a thousand every christmas. Or in the summer season.
I'm not saying he is fast but he is faster and safer then half of the yanks that put there videos up on the tube. And we still make money on being slow because we are paid by hour. and we do the most by machine only the biggest trees are put down by the chainsaw. the average tree in Sweden is 50cm in BHD. and i presume that the you are a master in the wood and take down hundreds trees in one day, because in the 70-80s you had to take down 4-500 trees a day to make money in Swedish forestry.
Ive owned and ran Huskys and Stihls both(385xp, 575xp, 390xp, 395xp, Ms460, Ms660) and Huskys have always had better stump power, but I liked limbing with Stihls better, which is where a faller spends most their time anyways. Stihls seemed more reliable as well, but the Huskys vibrate less. I run a Husky 390 right now, but they will all get the job done as long as you know how to file or grind chain correctly.
I like plunge cuts, minimizes the possibility of the tree sitting back on your bar. Works well on smaller trees where you don't have room to drive a wedge into the kerf behind your bar. Of course I'm no professional, just a 5 cord a year firewood cutter. I'd get a full size axe for driving wedges though, I would hate to peck on that wedge as long as he did with that hatchet..
don't know what you do for a living... this is my life you moron! I'm a forestry inspector (5 years college and 5 more on the job)- and if I see a guy like this one doing this in the forest well.. I make sure he's fired. the minimum fine is about 150$ and it goes up to 10000$
I've seen impaled people, torned fingers, severed hands and legs - the ugly part of this job made possible by a guy just like this one with a chainsaw
in one year in my area we are cutting about 456000 mc (cubic meters)
only the small stihls (up to 362) are made in USA. All the big boys are made in Germany. So no, you don't need an american made stihl to do it right. You need a german one. boo hoo.
@sonofalogger97 my comment was directed at an earlier comment which was something like "You need an American made stihl to get it done!!!". Sweden, not Sweeden for the Huskies.
every thing this guy did is wronrg, under cut should be humbolt for one ,backcut is wrong hillbilly no experience, wedge should be in after starting back cut if he did the back cut the right way,he didnt look up once when striking wedge
That is pretty much my technique. I always use a wedge with a tree that big and no lean. Better to use a wedge and not need it than get the saw stuck.
it doesnt matter how fast or slow, safe and did your way is what matters.. So I have said that, I am a stihl man and I do use a bigger axe but if you bring it to the job you carry it in and back.. So you not any body can say who id better but you can because you did it not them.. So keep cutting safe ok looked pretty good to me any way no matter what cut you used or saw keep your eyes open and look up...
Very nice work,I don't see any thing wrong with the way you cut it.And you left a nice stump. you should be able to dance on your stumps! Nice and low to again nice work, and work safe.
slow slow and even slower, get a better axe than that pissy little thing, i'm amazed by how many people try using those stupid things. plus why the bore cut? a basic back cut would have been quicker, easier and safer.
my boss want`s me to use the bore cutting,looks abit dangerous the tree standing there for that amount of time over half cut. i realize that some countries may require this (bore cutting) But the truth of it is just because it`s law / or required doesn`t make it the best way
EVERY tree i cut gets cut a bit differently
and that being said nice job showing the bore cutting tech.
why is it that u see europeans using this boring cut I don't really understand its perpose why not just put in a face and start ur back cut and there is a time and place for boring but thats only for heavy head leaners
When I used to work for a Tree Company, the only time we ever bored into trees is storm damage but mostly from Hurricane blow overs, they could be all mangled up with each other and very very dangerous regardless of which cut you would use because of snap back.
Skogs, what kind of tree is that? Do you skid that out and take it to the mill or is it some kind of thinning project? just wondering what kind of job you were on there. Is it Scandanavia?
good job, my only question is why do you guys wear that ridiculus tool belt a wedge pouch is all you need it will hold your bar wrench and stuff and has a hook for your tape?
I see alot of americans commenting on this video about how silly this looks and that they could do it much better and faster. Truth is, you probably can, but you also are in much bigger risk of getting yourself killed or injured. Any idiot can cut a tree down like an american, but in scandinavia we go through 2 years of training to cut trees safely and in a way that is as healthy and respectfull for the environment as possible.
Thanks for making all Americans look like a bunch of fucking rednecks. There are different ways of doing things, not to mention different regulations in different locations. I am all for experience over education, but maybe those "good men" would still be here had they had more in class education to compliment their experience. As for you shiadris, maybe next time you could be a little nicer and not such a douche bag. See if we will help you next time Germany invades you sorry ass country.
looks like kind of a plunge cut then a swing dutchman, but why?? I agree with you other fallers, shoulda made a deeper face cut, then less wedging would be necessary. But hey i guess since i wasnt there to see the tree i cant talk too much. maybe he had some reason to cut like that but it didnt look very good. ps get an axe and you can drive them wedges a little better. Left a good looking stump though
If you know anything about using saw then you know that all you do when you plunge cut or bore cut you put a slight twist on the powerhead and it prevents any kind of kickback or chatter.
Duker2000 If you were any kinda sawyer you'd know if you twist on spruce you're gonna f-up your bar! Why don't you leave the comments to the men and go sit on your saw you worthless puss nuts rookie!
learn how to cut down a tree b4 putting it on the net. 1. make a deeper undercut and 2. dont bore in the back cut its a good way to get your saw stuck, then you wouldn't be able to get your wedge in

don't know what you do for a living... this is my life you moron! I'm a forestry inspector (5 years college and 5 more on the job)- and if I see a guy like this one doing this in the forest well.. I make sure he's fired. the minimum fine is about 150$ and it goes up to 10000$
I've seen impaled people, torned fingers, severed hands and legs - the ugly part of this job made possible by a guy just like this one with a chainsaw
in one year in my area we are cutting about 456000 mc (cubic meters)

@HiWay69s
only the small stihls (up to 362) are made in USA. All the big boys are made in Germany. So no, you don't need an american made stihl to do it right. You need a german one. boo hoo.

one thing i forgot to mention is under cut should be in the stump not the log,as you are wasting wood
deewane45 2 years ago
every thing this guy did is wronrg, under cut should be humbolt for one ,backcut is wrong hillbilly no experience, wedge should be in after starting back cut if he did the back cut the right way,he didnt look up once when striking wedge
this guy wont live long doing falling like this
and ya ignorance is bliss till you get killed
deewane45 2 years ago
That was done right, if you make a face cut in too deapp it makes the tree unstable.

That is pretty much my technique. I always use a wedge with a tree that big and no lean. Better to use a wedge and not need it than get the saw stuck.
peterinbrat 2 years ago
you do it with to much effort and waste a lot of time, you won't afford your's living
Wacpanzaru 2 years ago
Use that technique on a big tree with alot of sideweight and it's going out the side door, saws jammed underneath it as well.
Rawlinson18 2 years ago
it doesnt matter how fast or slow, safe and did your way is what matters.. So I have said that, I am a stihl man and I do use a bigger axe but if you bring it to the job you carry it in and back.. So you not any body can say who id better but you can because you did it not them.. So keep cutting safe ok looked pretty good to me any way no matter what cut you used or saw keep your eyes open and look up...

Newyorklumberjack 2 years ago
slow slow and even slower, get a better axe than that pissy little thing, i'm amazed by how many people try using those stupid things. plus why the bore cut? a basic back cut would have been quicker, easier and safer.

CDHIgnorance 2 years ago 2
my boss want`s me to use the bore cutting,looks abit dangerous the tree standing there for that amount of time over half cut. i realize that some countries may require this (bore cutting) But the truth of it is just because it`s law / or required doesn`t make it the best way
EVERY tree i cut gets cut a bit differently
and that being said nice job showing the bore cutting tech.

why is it that u see europeans using this boring cut I don't really understand its perpose why not just put in a face and start ur back cut and there is a time and place for boring but thats only for heavy head leaners
dcook395 2 years ago
When I used to work for a Tree Company, the only time we ever bored into trees is storm damage but mostly from Hurricane blow overs, they could be all mangled up with each other and very very dangerous regardless of which cut you would use because of snap back.
Pittimus84 2 years ago
Skogs, what kind of tree is that? Do you skid that out and take it to the mill or is it some kind of thinning project? just wondering what kind of job you were on there. Is it Scandanavia?
quickvid3664 2 years ago
good job, my only question is why do you guys wear that ridiculus tool belt a wedge pouch is all you need it will hold your bar wrench and stuff and has a hook for your tape?
cyoung927 2 years ago
I see alot of americans commenting on this video about how silly this looks and that they could do it much better and faster. Truth is, you probably can, but you also are in much bigger risk of getting yourself killed or injured. Any idiot can cut a tree down like an american, but in scandinavia we go through 2 years of training to cut trees safely and in a way that is as healthy and respectfull for the environment as possible.

Thanks for making all Americans look like a bunch of fucking rednecks. There are different ways of doing things, not to mention different regulations in different locations. I am all for experience over education, but maybe those "good men" would still be here had they had more in class education to compliment their experience. As for you shiadris, maybe next time you could be a little nicer and not such a douche bag. See if we will help you next time Germany invades you sorry ass country.

shelterduck 2 years ago
looks like kind of a plunge cut then a swing dutchman, but why?? I agree with you other fallers, shoulda made a deeper face cut, then less wedging would be necessary. But hey i guess since i wasnt there to see the tree i cant talk too much. maybe he had some reason to cut like that but it didnt look very good. ps get an axe and you can drive them wedges a little better. Left a good looking stump though
quickvid3664 2 years ago

If you know anything about using saw then you know that all you do when you plunge cut or bore cut you put a slight twist on the powerhead and it prevents any kind of kickback or chatter.

learn how to cut down a tree b4 putting it on the net. 1. make a deeper undercut and 2. dont bore in the back cut its a good way to get your saw stuck, then you wouldn't be able to get your wedge in
