Slow is steady and steady is fast.

If you're cutting for firewood, sure. But if you're selling logs, you'd be losing so much money on leaving high stumps. Cut as low as you can if you want to make it worth your while.

The tool he was using to push lever the tree is called a felling bar and the tool he used to twist the tree is a shorter felling bar with a cant hook attached. All logging companies make them husqvarna makes good ones that aren't particularly expensive.

Trees that big don't need spinning, the fall on their own.

It's standard practice to cut low in forestry so you maintain as much of the most valuable part of the tree at the base as possible and have a nice long pole and the highest price. I don't fell trees for timber so cut at a more comfortable height but when I do my three-yearly refresher course the trainer generally comments that I'm cutting too high!

A cut that shallow works on some trees and doesn't on others. In a beginners instructional video it would have been better to be deeper. But I think it was to make it easier to create the hung up. That being said, never cut half way or deeper. A good rule of the thumb is up to 1/3 of the way. If you cut a heavy tree with a notch too deep the hinge is likely to fail and cause "stump jump" and then you don't know where the tree will fall. Another thing that too deep a notch does is it removes so much support that the tree doesn't stand on it's own and can actually fall backwards. You want the tree to stand on it's own despite the notch until you make the back cut.

I would rather be called a hater than stupid like you. This guy would go broke cutting wood for a living.

This is exactly how you get taught to do it, and fully complied with certification guidelines in the UK (not sure where you're from?)

Moi?

Austin lol

@@austindenotter19 You of course do this for a living. Yeah nah thought not.

not this video!!!

The Swedes

Google felling lever.

It's Swedish. They use that in Sweden all the time.

Google felling lever.

Toy tree 😂

It's an instructional video, showing what to do if your tree is hung up. He lodged the tree on purpose.

It is an alternative in the states

Maybe you should have spent more time at school. Then you would have learned how to write.

But that would be old growth forest,which many in Europe would say should be conserved,not cut.In Britain it is mostly plantation timber grown from seedlings and aimed in the commercial sector mainly for either pitprops or woodchip/ paper.Also there are not many sawmills that can handle big stuff

I would give anything to hear this guy break into "I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay"

Seen many of those fail

Ben Bowman since when does that species barber?

way too small and dead to barber chair

James Bryant my son would have had that tree pencil down w his ertle saw in 3 mins

James Bryant come over here and take some big oak w us. I dunno wtf u were doin w that face cut. Hinge was not good . But who am I to say. I ain't there. Next time your toes or feet may become a hinge

Nope, push. the danger is the log falling onto you. Pulling it to you, rather than away, increases the risk.

Does he lose it with you because you can't tell time? Video was 7 minutes
