    Wow I should definitely try this, all I used to do was uproot and lift the giant tree with my barehands, then threw it somewhere around, but this technique will save me some effort without any doubt.

      Maybe you evaluated the tree wrong. Its the only method officially taught in wildland saw class, and works every time. There is no "one way" to fell a tree, as there are probably a dozen different acceptable felling notches and just as many backcuts...and in some cases people make the backcut first if the tree has heavy back lean...

    In my opinion, this technique is the right choice for felling trees safely, or I might have used a second wedge.

    If you do this, you will get hurt. First off: do not stick the nose of the saw into the tree (I know it can be done and many do, but you can get hurt). The front notch is not deep enough and is too open. It should be almost as deep as half the width of the tree. His tree was a rotten stump. Yes, you aim the fall by cutting the notch 90 degrees to where you want the tree to land, while compensating for wind, and the balance of the tree. You can accomplish the same 'anti-kickback by making a proper front notch and making the back notch and inch or two about. There is a ton more where this guy will get you hurt. No tree is 100% safe from kicking back so plan accordingly.

  • @jakekelli6249
    @jakekelli6249 6 лет назад +29

    As a rule of thumb you should never go beyond an inch above the hinge with your bore cut let alone the 6 this guy did. Reason being the higher you go the less hinge you have. You can only get lucky so many times before you fail and it kills you, and it will kill you.
    Use the gunsights on the top of the saw to aim, and bore in behind no more than an inch above your face cut, and no less than an inch behind. Also know the benefits and the drawbacks of the face cut you use. Open face cut is best in most scenarios as the hinge remains in tact until the tree is on the ground. The conventional face cut (that this man was using) ,as well as the humboldt both caue the hinge to break prematurely and when that happens all control is lost. Many thing you didnt see happening could happen at this point leading up to an incident (a combination of factors all coming together at the same time leading to one dangerous and many times deadly outcome). The hinge also can help prevent the tree from twisting and roling to the side when it hits the ground. Stay safe guys. Wise man once said , it only takes one "oh shit!" To fuck up alot of " that a boys"

    I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.

      Thougt you meant barber chair - sorry, english is not my first language - and googling it it was most about the chainsaw kicking. Okej, but isn't kickback often due to weak/wrong hinge and lack of wedge, and the thing with the safe corner is that the tree stands till you cut the last bit, you have much more time to make a safe and planed retreat, Any way, this is one reason you should't make your backcut higher. hope you understand my english....:)

      I don't think so, because you can tell from the chips or the color of the chips whether the tree is rotten from the inside or not and the last cut is the controlled cut that ultimately cuts the tree with the help of the wedge, which controls the tension and the direction of the tree causing it to fall

  • @mrPauljacob
    @mrPauljacob 6 лет назад +20

    Ive cut down hundreds of trees. Dead ones are the most dangerous because theyre less predictable and tend to just snap. So in this case, i think the wedge was a good technique. Although i never use them. And your wedge cut seemed a bit too shallow. But the tree was dead so you dont wanna make the wedge too deep as it could fall on its own.

    A nice short right to the point demonstration of the bore cut method, although I dont see the need unless it's a tree that has straight grain that is prone to split and has a hard lean. The only important way is make the back cut about 1" above front cut to create a hinge.

      The Turkey Talker By placing his final cut in the same height as his first one a good strong hold is achieved. The further away from that level the final cut is made the risk of severing that safety is elevated. Since the tree does not seem to lean or stand in a slope that kind of technique is not required.

      He should not say its the safest if he was thinking about the most practical way for him. The safest in my personal opinion in this case is at knee level or even a bit lower. He should also get closer to the tree and not extending his arms out like that. He's overall body posture seems really bad to me.

    Not sure how this technique which creates the i necessary use of a plunge which has a higher risk of kickback makes things safer? Especially considering the way the saw is being held to start the plunge cut would prevent the chain brake working in the event of kickback.

    I have cut thousands of trees in a similar fashion. Other than cutting that stump a little high he did a great job. I generally keep my hinge cut, bore cut, and back Cut, all on the same level. Bore cutting does put a little more wear and tear on the nose of your bar but it is much safer than back cutting, especially if you have a big tree that's leaning or that has any structural issues. I've had some close calls with Barber-chair splitting before I use the bore cut.
    Without bore cutting the Feller is usually cutting the hinge as the tree is falling and that proximity to the tree is very dangerous at that point. Bore cutting allows the Feller much more time to escape while the tree is falling.

      @@lowellmiller6663 You can still back cut it, depends how much it's leaning but you could put a back cut in first on the side that's leaning, then put in a few wedges, do your notch cut on the high side and put in a few more wedges on the back which should send her, that removes the risk of barber chair, albeit a bit tedious.
      Either way you need an escape route for every tree that you cut, in case an inevitable barber chair occurs.
      Bore cutting is just too dangerous for a beginner who has NO knowledge on the forces involved while using a chain (pulling-pushing) and how much strength it takes to control the bar and chain in case of a kickback, plus muscle memory of hitting the brake.
      I'd say get used to using a chainsaw and learn how it works for a few hours, then try a bore cut carefully.

    There is absolutely no excuse for why we do not have a device that attaches the saw to the tree and we stand off 100, 200 feet and pull on a rope to put the saw blade into the tree. Those things weigh a ton sometimes and they are falling from 50 feet up... invent this thing somebody. We no longer drive around without seatbelts, why this?

    I am not a tree cutter neither I am smart guy.. But once I read a cheap mechanical-engineering book.. While I was looking on "tree cutting fails" on youtube.. I was almost always able to tell in advance which way tree is going to fall.
    Problem seems to be.. people see techniques from profession who are working on tree straight as an arrow.. then they apply same technique on tree which has weight distribution all over the place in shape of big huge branches or even v-shaped trunks.. result... we get youtube fail videos.
