    Could watch this ALL day long. My buddy and his dad were very well respected fallers in the Golden area years ago. Not too many real big trees left in the valley even then. Big wood still came out from the Mica dam area behind Revelstoke though. Big hemlock and cedar, with the occasional stand of fir.

    East coast here. Never seen wood like that in person. 36 to 40" was the biggest I ever saw and I was a junior cruiser for a month, back in 79. I hunted on hundreds of acres and saw the same all over. On my own ground, well - most in the 40" size gets blown over. We might have had big wood 400 yrs ago, but candlesticks grew up in place of it.

    Never , never turn you back on a tree that is mostly cut up- never. They will start moving with out a sound and by the time you notice shes moving in the wrong direction it can be too damn late to dodge her. it dont matter if your looking for a wedge or lighting a smoke or taking a piss you ALWAYS keep one unblinking eyeball glued to that trunk. I have had a few big ones come off the stump when I was certain they would have sat there til the end of time..that will damn sure take the cockiness out of you.... Felled for 20 years.

    Hey Bjarne, why do you place your back cut so high above your undercut? I've never cut large cedar like that so I don't know? Do you need more pull wood on the softer trees?

    • @BjarneButler
      @BjarneButler  2 года назад +1

      The bigger the tree the height the step. I also have a habit of making my steps higher the necessary. In BC, if your step is lower then your undercut then it’s considered a failed stump. But you can’t get a failed stump on a step that’s too high then necessary.

    • @BjarneButler
      @BjarneButler  4 года назад +11

      No way, we only use 390’s. Because modified 390’s already have great power to weight ratio and have enough power to get any job done. Also, the 395’s have an outside clutch, so if you stuck with the bar buried right up to the dogs then you can’t take the power head off to put your spare bar on. So the only way to get power head off is to chop your chain with your axe.
