hi mate, were about are you logging? i work in the marysville area in vic up in the ash country. plenty of rot in that old girl, but its always good to tip over the big ones.
God damn tree hugers. Its to bad your great grand parents didn't feel the same about trees as some ya'll do then you might not be here. Cutting tress to make homes furniture and whatever else is built from the wood that these men and women cut down is a way of life and to survive and its been that way since the dawn of time and i thank them. With out them this country wouldn't last along with the other hard working people around the world.
If it was just chips and no logs why not leave it for the woodpeckers and tree huggers? I wouldn't of cut that down either if it was my say so and I have fell timber professionally for 25 years
@1overthehillsfaraway I didn't fall it for fun, the tree was where we had to prepare our landing as set out by the Timber Harvesting Plan which is supplied to us by the governing body. The harvesting plan also protects patches of the coupe for the wildlife, stream-side reserves etc. The timber wasn't wasted as we do have a market for woodchips. No woodpeckers in Australia, I wish I could say the same for the tree huggers. Thanks for posting.
If loggers had any brains at all they would have started plantations 100 years ago. But no, they all want to clear the old growth now, till there is none left.
But that's what you get when you give a dickhead a chainsaw.
There is research ongoing- you know, finding facts before leaping wherever. Some findings indicate that some old growth sequesters more co2 than prev. thought, for one, by making wood.
Old growth is important as wildlife habitat and watershed, and is largely bio-diverse. Unlike agribusiness monoculture. Much old growth is public land.
Mainly, relax, think, discuss calmly. There's so much avoidable waste in the forest and the mills; there's much to learn.
@woodscritter Yeah, I hear ya.. Just hard to remain calm about things when I grew up on the timber dollar and there are people right here in this very town that I live that are making a killing suing the forest service for trying to log areas that are severely threatened by wildfire..chaps my ass that "logging is bad".. fine then, they can go wipe their asses with a porcupine then
@woodscritter Waste in mills is nothing compared to what is was is in the 50s and 60s, especially in the interior, where tolerances went from more than a few inches with bush mills to thousandths of an inch, and the pulp industry (which didn't think it could do this) runs whole mills off sawmill by-products. Everything has come a long way
its so sad that you have a profession which directly damages your own environment, which within 30-50 years will become unsustainable because of stupid people like this; resulting in no survivable environment for your grandchildren, who you are effectively killing/ diminishing life opportunities. so ironic.
@wingchunjustin Thats a great point .. go tell that to the wheat and corn farmers that cut their crop down and send it to companies to make food??.. because if you look at logging and its practices this way, you may as well say the same about the farmers.. people that complain about these things make me want to vomit. They have NO IDEA all the conveniences in their pitiful, meaningless lives are affected by these industries..
Commercial logging has been going on since Medieval times. How do you think the Spanish Armada encompassing thousands of wooden ships each carrying a hundred men or more and thousands of tons of supplies came to be? What is wrong with you?
Thanks hottie, big trees like this are 9 out of 10 rotten in the butt, so the 25inch bar is usually ok, but a few extra inches now and then would come in handy
fuck all loggers i hope u die

If that were my tree, I would not have removed it. The key words there are "my tree" - otherwise it's none of my business what anyone does with it.
