@@Good.Fellers I'm 73 and still enjoy cutting my own firewood here in South Australia, Australia, and not that I will be cutting trees that you do, I still learn so much from your videos and your tips on chainsaws. I have 2 Huskies 575 XP's, with 1 15 years old and still going strong, with the other about 4 years old to ensure I have at least one working when out in the paddocks, but I do rotate them when out getting wood. Our wood is mainly dry hard Eucalyptus (Peppermint Box), with a bit of red Eucalyptus River Gum.
im interested in how you back bar cut like that , seems very technical oppose to the normal front cut then come in the from back normally, or do you cut your way because the oak is really wide?
Thank you for the comment It’s hard to explain in the comments and your not first to ask so I’m going to make a video explaining how and why I cut a tree the way I do.
I’ve found the Stihl brand bars from that era harder steel than the Oregon/Husky bars from that time, is that why you’re running a Stihl bar in this instance?
@@Good.Fellers I’ve NO arguments there, but you “can” get them in configurations that no one else offers, but you’re also no longer able to get them (for now from what I’ve been told) in a lightweight version. For instance, my heavily muffler modded 372Xtork pulls a 30” (yes 30”) very well, but a 32” is a bit much.
This title was a little deceiving… but got me thinking… What are some of coolest/craziest things you’ve found in the woods? I’m sure you’ve seen it all by now, but just curious?
you are very skilled indeed , the way your cuts match up all around the stump of the tree ......on a different level than me all together ............
I’ve had a lot of practice….but still make mistakes….I pulled that plug at the end.
Continually amazed with your skills, so good to watch.
Glad ya liked it

@user-jb2pg5bk5c That’s Awesome! Be safe out there my man. Australia looks amazing!
The cutting technigue is good , mine is a little different, i cut everything as if it is export.
Try to cut for efficiency based on species, size, value, surroundings etc.
You sir are very skilled!
I’m definitely trying!!! thank you!!
Good job sir
Thank you!
You're saw is it a 572 or a 592?
592xp
Looks like illinois or indiana , cut a lot of w.oak out there in mid 80s , jim bailey hardwood , cut cottonwood in the summer, things change .

Yeah Oregon bars are junk

@ToddAdams1234 I don’t like a lightweight for my application. As far as a 30” on a 372. “It’s all in the filing” lol
@@Good.Fellers YES IT IS!
Wish I could drop timber that good

Coolest ding in the woods was a Indian axe.
