not sure who taught you how to fall but they should be slapped, by the way nice coveralls

[carnalit007]

hey cowboy,,, they are tyvek suits, there is lots of poison oak in the area. so what do you see wrong in this operation to slap my trainer?

mackapalmy, thanks for the input and feedback, I am trying to be a good sawyer and your pointers sure help out.

overall I agree with all the comments on needing wedges, I prefer a high lift wedge. Does the guy in the video have a bad back?! Or are enormous stumps not an issue in Australia?!! I'm from UK and we fell at ground level, he's obviously not being paid by the cubic metre!! Oh and he needs a bigger hammer!If you cut low to the ground have high lift wedges and a long handled maul, your life becomes alot easier felling big trees.

[carnalit007]

by cutting waist high you prevent having a bad back and you are able to look up and watch for falling debris ( widow makers )and walk away quickly from the base of the tree.I am not harvesting wood and the stump is left high because later it will be resurfaced and sprayed with a herbicide to kill the root system. you are right about the hammer, I need to use a proper felling ax, Oh and this is San Diego California, there is a few eucalyptus here!

we are not a logging crew, we are removing non-navive trees from a sensitive area habitat, mostly eucalyptus

If your worrid about getting a bad back then kneel down and keep your back straight to put the sink cut in. You can still look up if your sink is down low. Plus whoever owns the land is gunna be pissed when he has 200 4 foot stumps to deal with! and man what a waste of timber!

All flora and fauna are now mixing and will become evenly distributed on all the continents due to our ever-increasing need to travel and our ability to travel quickly and cheaply. This is impossible to stop.

I love Eucs. I think it is a shame to cut down such a nice tree. I have been growing and planting Eucs. all over our island for years.

Projects like this play an important part of our everyday lives. it says "CCC" on his hardhat... That stands for California Conservation Corps. This project was most likely prescribed by the fire marshal to reduce wildfire fuel near a suburban area. The brush, undergrowth, and non native trees must be removed to preserve and protect homes and people. In contrast, the CCC also plants native trees in burn areas to help protect against erosion, mudslides and floods.

Looked ok but everyone goes for that conventional face cut and I don't see why. You can drop it cleaner with an open face or a humbolt with less chance of bounce and roll. Also you won't need the wedges or at least not so many of them. Of course if this is commerical logging and you're trying to get all the wood then a low conventional saves the most wood but you cut this so high I doubt that's the case.

Also I'd have cut that other tree that it hit on the way down first for a clean fall.

Because they don't really tolerate undergrowth, they got rid of various insects in California, they suck up tons of water, they can become invasive, and it is not because it's a tree you can stick it anywhere, it's still "the right tree and the right spot"...
