Will watch this later...Presently have 500 or more small Ash Trees(which are dying all over Europe,) to cut above our little farm in Normandy. Forest Dept planted them in rows, two meters apart, rows 3 meters in widith from each other(enough for old Landrover when picking up wood,) and with the bramble bushes and vines, after 15 years of growth(was to be a Forest celebrating the year 2000,) is something else!!! Am getting too old for this as well at 64...Enjoy your videos...cheers...rr

@@ninjajunior4422 I was out in similar terrain yesterday on a hillside in the 'canadian shield' looking at a piece of land to build our timber frame home on. Windfallen trees everywhere Id say i spent more time balancing on fallen timber than I did on actual ground lol. This land is a breeze in comparison. Gunna have a hell of alot of work ahead of me with the chainsaw and the excavator if I decide to buy

Thanks for this video guys, enjoyed it with a cup of tea! Used Tim's method to cut down two mid-sized cyprus trees yesterday and it worked a charm, I felt safe and hit the spot! (I should have put a stick in the ground to impress my wife ;-)). I also used the stump method, using the chips for support on two old stumps, also worked perfectly. Thank you again, you are inspiring me to work more professionally and safer. Cheers, Tim (my name too)

Nope, everything your brother does(probably better,) I have been doing and will be doing for the next 2 months. What a drag...I think I'm going to take teenage son's advice and listen to music from Iphone underneath ear protection...cheers from Normandy, France...rr

Funny how you get used to knowing what 3m looks like without needing to use the loggers tape, I noticed even with the tape attached and not looking at it it's almost always within a few centimeters when i stop to check, usually about 3 steps forward. :-)

Could you do a video, please, of running the wood through your splitter to make the actual firewood size? Thanks
@73Zapp
@73Zapp 7 жыл бұрын
That actually is firewood size. Of course you can split the thicker parts so the wood will dry even quicker but thats not neccessary ime.

if you just quickly limbed 2 flat sides on those tops they'd lay flatter on the ground and more out of the way. I try to minimize brush by maximizing firewood. but then I'm retired with a love for manicuring my forest land .

Both. The tops and larger branches are chipped, the birch becomes firewood and the spruce I believe they sell for pulp wood or chip.

@73Zapp
@73Zapp 7 жыл бұрын
The main mistake is that 99% of those guys shown in the videos should not even be allowed to fill fuel or chipped wood into a miniature steam-machine. Besides somebody gave or sold them a chainsaw. In the end it's not a mistake, that's genetic selection.

Mistakes are easy to make... especially if you get in the habit of using your tools. You get cocky... too confident. One mistake I see in this video is that he never uses his chainsaw brake, especially not when he is moving around (like stepping over a log)

debranching is a waste of time in those situations waste of effort time and money. limbing past 4 inch diameter is also a waste of time. Not bucking directly off the stump is a waste of time. Man I need to make some videos and show everyone what PCT is really all about
