Thank you 🙏

every word true thumb's up

I would love to see him using a 72" bar on some monster tree

Sounds like we need to do a fund raiser to get him out there

I second that. He would be in forestry heaven.

Farmers are actually pretty much wanted for every job available here in Norway. We have a lot of academics and specialists in all kind of fields, but farmers always have a hands on approach to every job - they think carefully about their own safety, but they always get the job done. Also, there is this saying; In the city, you work until the work day ends - as a farmer you work until the job is done. I can attest to this as a former farmer myself - these days I only work in the forest. But the job has to be done, and nobody else comes along to do it for you, so you might as well stay on it.

@@oleandreasbrkke5223 Here in the US, farmers work darn near constantly in order to have any success. It’s a low margin business.

@@alan30189 Yup, same as here. Most farmers would be better off just having a regular day job. But it´s also a lifestyle...

Dry humor is the best, especially when even more dry sand is included.

this is only how private persons get theire wood tho, companys use forest machines with booms that cut the tree in steps while removing branches at the same time, just search on YT for Ponsse Bear or Logset 12h GTE Hybrid

@@Zirion123 Well yeah, private people commenting here so..........

When you see that Sondre has been doing this all on his own and then realize why am I not doing the same!

Jøtul factory is just down my street. 😅😁

@@aztex6981 wow! I would love to see that!

Interesting. We have that here (usa) if you put your land in a tax mode for commercial forestry. Greatly lowers property tax but you must allow recreational access.

Also you can't stop people from foraging berries or mushrooms in the forest, purposely planted fruit trees and shrubs not included naturally, but the nuts are your own. A weird exclusion that's probably left from a time when the nuts were far more important for food either for people or livestock.

In Switzerland its similar for work you close paths but the rest of the time it’s normal that people walk around in the forest

That's old school, really cool. I'm sure tough work.

Have never been able to understand why anyone would keep their saw off the trunk while snedding.

@@MrGorehound yup. You are expending energy without need.

@@Will-nc7lp exactly. Never lift what you don't need to lift AKA work smartet not harder.

Here in Norway, nature will reclaim anything left "unclean" over a single summer. I live further north, south of Lofoten at around 68N. By the look of the forest, humidity should be quite high in this region. Growing potatoes is one of my childhood nightmares, as soon as the soil thaws you plant, but every other day you have to weed the field. Eventually the plant will grow to dominance, but weeds sure love 24/7 sunlight. My mothers farm was completely overtaken by raspberry weeds within 2 years, after 25 years of free range sheep keeping it clean came to an end.

Felling bar would be the litteral translation of what Sondre said - "fellespett".

I tend to agree that it is a good trade off between reach and efficiency. I find limbing so much easier with a 13 inch than say an 18 inch - lighter set up (same goes for 50cc), way more maneuverable/less awkward angles, "instant" full chain speed even with smaller saws, less rocks hit and so on. With the technique Sondre showed, you'll be able to get through most (spruce) trees in Norway, and you could always plunge in through the front of the hinge to get the middle should you stumble upon one that is wider than twice the bar length.

@@skippymctwist7 great tips, thanks
