Finished the 110 acre Callahan job today. Last tree, we left a monument for our great Bullbuck and friend, Frank, who recently passed away.
View attachment 206767 View attachment 206768 View attachment 206769 Well, here’s our new unit for 3 weeks or so. Salvage job from snow storm last year. The trees still have diaper cages on them in spots, and were scheduled to be harvested in 15 years. I used the Husqvarna 572 today, but I’m thinking a 562 would be just fine!
Yeah, that would be a great combo. Small saw and lightweight bar. The main time consumer is picking the mess apart, not stump time it would seem. I had a lightweight 28” on the 572 today. I’ll either run the 562, 572, or 462 Monday on. Can’t decide at the moment.Looks pretty ugly. Joe and I cut an almost identical unit for the company in 2004, and we ran 044s with 28" bars.

We will. They don’t seem to be as bound up and dangerous as some spots where we were on our last job, but still plenty dangerous. Safety is #1.Good luck and be safe guys

And my jack made a frowny face. I made this about 10 years ago. Give me a chance for a better design that I've been cooking up. 3/4 cable and 15 ton tractor on one end, me and the 30 ton jack on the other. High voltage high line behind. Me in the middle. Worst one I've ever done against the lean. It wanted in to the lines bad.
