Saw video thread

I bet you could have tree with 5 professional logger/faller guys cutting it and it would be cut 5 different ways.
Just saying...

Guess I need to get rid of my west coast configured saws. I hear they can’t cut wood here in the north east

It really really is

Yep around here it's low tops, small dogs, short bars, half wrap handles and no one bore cuts oh and stump height is roughly 12 inches, haha.

The critics here are very harsh! [emoji2957]

Wonder if there is a way to dyno test the performance gain of a half wrap, 3/4 wrap or full wrap? Or small dawgs vs large dawgs. Eliminate the variables. Lol

Of course there is. Requires videa and a field of stumps.

My money says the increased weight of the full wrap will self feed better in the cut than the 3/4 or 1/2 wrap. Lol

Depends on dawg length and two or one dawg on saw.

4012 Carlton 2005 model with the kohler 27hp gas. She's used and abused.
Being that its state park shared it sees multiple users and doesn't make money.
Half the time its an impromptu instruction class when I drop it off and then have to go on to more expensive things, so after they plow the freshly sharpened teeth through some rocks the process can become tedious.
We're a little bit different from the private sector.

Yeah , big deal

If the stump was 2 inches higher they still plowed through rocks just the same. So..no..it isn't a big deal. The outcome is just the same.

You should make a video of that.

This is true.

 

[sawmikaze]

True, I don't get it? , its not like there's no mountains on the east coast.

Ask skeans and WBF for some pictures of the trees they've cut, some are on grades most people would be scared to walk on let alone use a chainsaw.

See how many pictures you can find of guys doing the same thing on the East Coast..

Just cut the rubber off of the wrap part, it'll make it lighter.

Might cut slower though.

There’s nothing like having to sit down in the stump hole because there’s no where to go once the tree is leaving the stump. It’s not uncommon to see us do that on flat ground as well as far back boring it’s not common practice to see one is not safest practice two there’s other style of back cut that work just as well without having to work as hard.

This got me thinking a bit. I live in the hills here. There are some steep grades, but no old growth. I'm wondering what the difference is between the coasts? It can't be all the trees were harvested decades and decades ago being the east was settled first. What is the reason for the monsters out west?

Just the species of trees?

Got me dude.

Species and conditions what I can grow in 60 years in a full rotation of stuff that will knock on 4’ feet on the stump. Or if the stand is left very tight I can have some nice straight 150’ 25” on the stump stuff with no limbs or taper. Our longest growing main used wood out here is cedar which is normally a 2 to 3 times the length rotation to a Douglas Fir or Alder.
