592 by/cutting with Leave Nothing Stock

This one leaned left, and being used to my brittle, hard-leaning desert hardwoods, I overcompensated for the lean and brushed the tree on the right more than I would have liked. You can see it held on the right a lot more than I expected, more than the other dead sticks I had been cutting.

I had a lot of fun cutting the tall pines.

Might have already posted these, I was traveling a lot and sleeping a little.

Third one with the bark shaved was a pretty good back leaner, fun with wedges.

Had some fat hinges on alot of those. Did you thin up that back leaner to help it push over?

They were all dead and largely punky…but then some stringy wood surprises too. Yes that one I gutted once I had it tipped up vertical.

Yes. It’s a torque monster. Drags .404 through dry hard Euc…and the filter doesn’t let the dust in.

Not picking on you, but curious as to why you sent that top into the other trees? Couldn’t you have brought it clockwise some more, and avoided them?

There was a house I had to avoid at all costs and that alder was for the chop as well. Also, by dropping it onto the alder I was keeping the mess in one place and it knocked a lot of the dead limbs off the alder, making it handier to cut after. That alder was as dead as a dodo.

Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification.

Another thing. You can't see it in the video but there was a cattle pen between the tree I'm in and the garden I dropped it into. The alder broke the fall of the top and stopped it from further damaging the already rickety walls of the pen.
