You are meant to get wiser with age. My friend Ian and I just did the same on his land here in the UK. We are not smarter than we were as young men, we forget what we are trying to do or have just done. We forget where we put our tools,gloves,keys,glasses,ropes,the van. We could not lift,cut,climb like we used to. You guys are fitter than we are as we are retired nowdays. Ian is 62 and I am 58 the village fully expected us to flatten his workshop or injure ourselves with the two huge trees. It just took longer as we only did half days so as to take care of older more fragile bodies. You guys graft, much admired.
Customer has 200 or so year old white oaks ..Civil War trees massive ..we trimmed them bucket reached half way..I like the medium to medium small trees they pay the same in long run and are ideal for me..regular 50ft residential trees....and the rural felling and clearing been doing love those..
I get really big ash, oak, and maples like that pretty often from a crane service that takes them down in Princeton, NJ where the whole town shows and heckles the tree guy’s…huge tree huggers up there! I wax them up with a 395 with a 32” bar, never been denied and I have pictures of oaks 7-8’ at the root flair…just way overhead…got to admit it’s not to hard when you have an excavator to roll them around. Once bucked I put the hydraulic splitter on the excavator and just grab those huge wheels and munch them in to nice little fifty pound wedges…only way too go! One 48”-50” maple wheel yielded 77 pieces of split firewood…my guess is 120 pieces out of one of your ash wheels! Great video!
I never sow a chainsaw that big neither one tree that large taking down like that! You guys are very professional’s and saved to work with! Thank would be enough for all winter for me 😊 ! Awesome job and video guys!
The oiler lever on the 3120xp opens a port on the oil pump allowing more oil to flow. It is designed to be used when more oil is desired like with dry or dirty wood. I'd recommend scoring the tree with a small saw and then putting the bigge bar in the kerf. This will help keep your cuts straight and also help start the heavy saw. I'd also recommend not back baring. Let it rest on the dogs and eat. Fighting a big saw will wear out a young guy real quick. Either way woods on the grond. Thanks for the vids!
I think of the thousand videos you have done, this might be my new favorite! That tree was a beast! And what a honey hole for firewood you have there. Too cool 😎
Wow!!! Super cool!!! That’s a years worth of fire wood in one tree! You Learn something new every day they say now I know it’s called Blonding very cool to know
Hi Chris and Kenny!!😀😀 Maybe should have just bought a 36 inch bar for the 592 instead of the 5 foot bar and the 3120. It would have been a lot easier to have handled it instead. I think it's one of the biggest ash trees I have ever seen. I cut down a soft maple 30 years ago for my mother in law . It was almost 5 feet in diameter at waist height and flaired out to a little over 8 feet in diameter at about 8 feet tall. I fell and bucked it with a 24 inch bar. Thank goodness the center was rotten about 12 inches in diameter were I cut it off. I had to rip the whole thing into firewood blocks. We ended up with almost 25 face cords from it. It took two of us over two days just to buck it up and rip everything that needed to be ripped. It will be interesting to see how many face cords you end up with from it. Take care my friends!!😀😀💚💚 Logger Al
I kinda knew we did not "need" that saw and bar but it made for a good video and will for lots more videos too. Yes the 42" bar Adam has would have been plenty big enough. I thin it will be 5 full cords maybe more????
Another AWESOME video Chris!! That 5' bar is a beast! I hope you can find the handle for the tip of the bar, so you & Ken can get a nice level cut for your slabs that you want to cut! It's great to see your dad out with you guys! Like everybody else, I am curious how many cords of firewood that tree supplies for you!! GNI
What a beast of a saw! That's a huge Ash tree and lots of firewood. I hate those big old trees. Handling those large pieces is a pain in the ass. Most of the Ash trees I've been cutting are 75 to 125 years old. Sure, I wouldn't want a chain flying off on that long bar. It could do some real damage 😮. Those are going to be some nasty rounds to split. That 5 foot bar binds up pretty easy, but fun to to watch eat wood 😂 Great chainsaw carnage 😊
If I’m not mistaken a chainsaw isn’t able to cut level. It’s always off at least a little bit. Thus why some guys glue a certain thickness to the end of there bars when cutting wooden up right columns for like a porch on a cabin.
Talk about some wood rounds. First time I have ever seen wood being cut so that it can be small enough to be processed on a wood splitter. 5 foot bar and saw motor at 40 lbs! That is one beast of a chain saw! That is a lot of wood just in a tree stump!
That is a big saw. I ran a an old 042 Stilhl with a 42” bar back in the 90’s, i thought that was big. Wow that saw your guys ran was very big. Great work. 👍🏻
As big and powerful that saw is you should be able to put wheels and a seat on it and drive it to the tree. You guys are great just be careful with it. I can't start a day without you guys.
Super jobs guys! Love the ending part with your dad. I had an oak tree that was about 10 feet round a good 40 feet high . It was a scary monster to bring it down, it was about 15 feet from the house. It took me months to cut it up with my 572xp. It ate up several chains!
Such an awesome video today Chris!! Thanks a bunch for all your great content! Really look forward to checking out the channel everyday! Love the live on location with the family vids! Loved seeing the 3120 going! Awesome job that day 💯👍! Take care! Andrew from NB :)
I had a son In law that worked for a land clearing co. , and he would bring me logs, he brought me a tree about that size, oh boy what a job , the slabs looked so skinny, but we’re all about sixteen inches, a lot of work, but wow what a lot of wood, great video take care👍
Every saw compared to that 3120 with 5' bar is a small saw. LOL. I am sure Buckin' Billy Ray tipped his hat to you for getting it done on that monster ash tree.
@@InTheWoodyard If you figure double the volume due to splitting and stacking and that the butt was 16 square feet, then you would get 2 cords of wood for every 8 feet of height. Of course the larger diameter from above the crotch and limb stubs adds more.
I had to take a nap after watching you two wrestle that big chainsaw and tree around🤣What monsters! The Ash round I have in my woodyard is 48 inches across. My son Evan and I loaded two of them by hand on our tilt trailer. Thought I was going to get hernia that day! Awesome video Chris👍🏻👍🏻GNI
The largest Ash tree removal I have done was a Shamel Ash tree in Glendora , California. DBH was 136 inches or 11 feet 4 inches. We had 110 ton crane their for 2 days.
Kenny is an animal !! He was handling that 5 Foot bar like it was nothing. Can't wait to see what other stuff you are going to use that thing on. Definitely need to put a handle on the end of the bar.
I thought I was cool with my McCulloch 7-10a with a 28' bar running around my yard. What a Freaking saw. 60" bar. Holy crap it seemed like it was nothing to that saw cutting that stump. Amazing!!
The Mighty Monarch has fallen! What a tree! It probably started growing right after the Civil War. Just think of all the weather that old boy has stood strong through for a century and a half!
curious why you wouldnt turn that saw around on that big cut and use the bucking spikes to help make the cut. you would have less of a struggle, interesting technique.
I was on a crew that cut a 6½ ft Cedar once. The Feller used a 24 inch bar. Big cedars rot from the inside and the wall was only 16 inches thick. Big difference from what you folks were cutting. I forget how tall it was, but it was a monster.
Bravo boys. Teamwork and perseverance prevail. You guys are woodyard poets and that 3120 with a 60 bar surely shows it… it’s a long fellow. Eat hardy and sleep well after that battle victory. You’ve earned it.
On bigger trees you can stack the wedges two or three high and triple the lift without having to do the pushing. You can get a stand leg (something like you use to stabilize cameras). The point goes in the hole on the end of the bar and then you walk around the tree
After the limbs were cut off, that would’ve made a fantastic wood sculpture by one of those guys that makes bears and such with a chain saw. You wouldn’t need that massive blade. Just super video. Loved watching you guys think it out then get’e r done. 😮😅😮😅😊😅😮😊
Nice job. Like when your chainsaw is 1' plus taller than your are and it doesn't reach all the way through at the flare. Big saw makes the 592 look like a weenie saw. I'm really enjoying your adventures with the family & Mr. Carlson Sr's woodlot. GNI
That is one big"ash" and one monster bar and saw. Did you purchase the 3120 & bar for cutting this Ash tree , or have you got some other surprise cuts coming up? You and brothers continue to be safe and don't end up like the latter from previous video..
We just cut a 175 year old Oak tree down that is 64 inches at the base. We have 25 feet of bowl to still cut up. I know the trouble you are having with that Ash.
After watching this whole video I actually can’t believe the stump of this tree is so solid. That is some lucky stuff right there. All the ash around me have been dead for I bet better then 20 plus yrs. SAD SAD deal there. Dutch Elm Disease before tht. Imagine walking the earth when all virgin growth was here. Tht be awesome. Walking amongst GIANTS!
I'm glad I wasn't the one who had to run that monster of a saw,I've got an ash in my yard that needs to come down, it's about 26 inches across, was a beautiful tree when fist bought the house
That 60 inch bar did the job, but maybe some day it will be on a wall as a conversation piece. Kinda like old bear traps. Yes sonny, back when I was your age......
Lots of choices to make. Either get these ash trees out in logs and hire your loghoaler, or cut it up in rounds, make a big mountain of those and hire a big dumptruck to load and truck them to you. Or if the distance is to high, sell to a local firewood dealer. At the very least I would cut and split some up for your dad but I am sure that was already the plan (less transport) It was impressive to see that big saw cutting that big stump. You can carve that remaining stump into a picnic table. lol
That's a big saw! You want those cookies kiln dried and CNC leveled you let me know. We can make your dad a pretty sweet epoxy pour table for the front yard! Could CNC the family name and the date or something....
Good Lord!!! what a beast of a powersaw!! It sounds better than these young boys little tomato can cars that run thru town!! They sound like an old Weed wacker with a bad choke!
Wow that is a big tree. My cousin has a nearly that big of a big ass Ash trees in her front yard just north of Minneapolis. She has to have it cut down this year because it has the ash borer and is dying off.
Curious why you chose to back bar instead of cutting from the other side and cutting normal (with the flywheel to the sky)? Good video gentlemen. Oh, and you bought that 3120 from Boedy I believe, right?
First it was wow! about the big saw. Then it was holy sh..t when Kenny had his hand on the chain and accidentally hit the gas. Thank god, and everyone else for a good brake on that saw.
That was an awesome video. I have a pretty big white ash tree and is 15.5 feet in circumference and is 59 inches in dia. At one time it was 125 ft tall. With over a 100ft spread. A tornado took half the tree 8 yrs ago but the ash borers got to it. Hopefully this year I can cut it down.

Yup!
That is one BIG bar. LOL. Thanks for sharing - fun just watching you gents. Cheers!
Thanks Gord!
Every other wood RUclipsr called, they want there thunder back. That was absolutely amazing. Great video.
Ha! Thanks!!
Now that is one big saw and a big tree!!!
I know you want to touch it don't you??
Good Morning Woodhounds!! Ken looks like he's winning the Battle with that old tree!!
Yup!
Thats a big bar!! Thanks for bringing us along!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks!

that thing was something else. Amazing size. that is enough wood to last awhile. God bless you guys.
Yup, you will see the video soon, we got 6 full cords from that one tree!
I was making waves in the toilet as I was rocking back and forth helping you guys push the tree over!
Gonna need a new wax ring after this show!😂😂

It was fun watching this adventure you guys had with that tree! KC Don 😉
Thanks DON!
Amazing Chris and Kenny. I have seen that big of a bar. I am sure that had to wear you out. Take care 👍
Thanks 👍
That was awesome! And Kenny’s t-shirt says it all!
Yup!
Chris,Ken,and dad family outing Chris you should get a family picture around that stump ❤😮👍🍺
We did in the video.
Awesome!! Adventures with Ken! That's what I'm talkin' about 💪🤘
Thanks Russ!
Good morning Cris,WOW 😮,that is one big saw bar
Yup, it is that!
Good morning Chris and Ken, good work guys. We don't use thothose big saws at all for felling. Just bucking and milling
It was fun!

Chris, that bar and chain is absolutely huge, mate lol 😂 it made short work of that stump.
Yup, it is that!
Good morning Lumberjacks, think that's the biggest saw on RUclips 😅, your dad has 2 great son's helping him with that tree 🌳
maybe so!
Job well done guys! Each one of those limbs was a tree in itself! Wouldn’t want to wrestle with that saw all the time. Stay safe and have a great day…
Yes they where!
Big ass saw for a big ass ash. Nice job, guys!
yup!
Talk about some wood rounds. First time I have ever seen wood being cut so that it can be small enough to be processed on a wood splitter. 5 foot bar and saw motor at 40 lbs! That is one beast of a chain saw! That is a lot of wood just in a tree stump!
Yes it sure was!
I always take a few 5ft lever bars with me when playing trees, makes moving the big bits much easier.
Yup, we did not know that we where going to do that job so we did not have everything we needed that day.
Sorry, it might be bad manners to make 3 comments on the RUclips video, but this is the most fascinating wood cutting video I have seen. Thank you.
Comment as much as you want! Thanks!
That is a big saw. I ran a an old 042 Stilhl with a 42” bar back in the 90’s, i thought that was big. Wow that saw your guys ran was very big. Great work. 👍🏻

As big and powerful that saw is you should be able to put wheels and a seat on it and drive it to the tree. You guys are great just be careful with it. I can't start a day without you guys.

Wow, I just don't know what to say. That was definitely a good size tree..😁👍

Yup, sounds like a big one!
Did you count the rings? I did one at 48" and 195 years old!!
It has to be 150-plus years old. But no, I didn't count the rings. I still have three chuck of the trunk still rotting away in the woods!
Very glad to see your brother and you did not get hurt that was not easy
Thanks!

I had a stihl ms 500i both the air filter does not du the job so now i ran Husqvarna very happy with the 572xpg 😊
Good to hear!
Morning Chris. I would like to see what the final quantity of firewood that comes out of that “ Big Ash” tree. You guys are awesome. Stay safe👍
Me too, about 5 full cords or so???
@@InTheWoodyard If you figure double the volume due to splitting and stacking and that the butt was 16 square feet, then you would get 2 cords of wood for every 8 feet of height. Of course the larger diameter from above the crotch and limb stubs adds more.

Now that's a man's saw. No I don't know what man, maybe the Rock? My guess is there's 50 plus full cords.GREAT VIDEO.
Maybe 5 cords.
That's about foot larger than most but you get it..I reckon. ..man snow amazing..miss it
yup.
The Mighty Monarch has fallen! What a tree! It probably started growing right after the Civil War. Just think of all the weather that old boy has stood strong through for a century and a half!

Thanks John!
curious why you wouldnt turn that saw around on that big cut and use the bucking spikes to help make the cut. you would have less of a struggle, interesting technique.
It was not planed, Ken just threw it up there and started cutting! You are correct!
I was on a crew that cut a 6½ ft Cedar once. The Feller used a 24 inch bar. Big cedars rot from the inside and the wall was only 16 inches thick. Big difference from what you folks were cutting.

Nice! I don't know where you guys get your energy from! But you got some serious ash to buck and split!
Yup, lots of work right there!
34:38 😮when you grabbed that chain and hit the gas I just about fell outta my chair
The brake was on.
I’m so glad it was. That is something I could be much more consistent with. Was fun to watch youz having such a great time👍
It is funny, when you call the 592 your small saw now 😂 What a MONSTER, actually scary
Ya, I know !!
Bravo boys. Teamwork and perseverance prevail. You guys are woodyard poets and that 3120 with a 60 bar surely shows it… it’s a long fellow. Eat hardy and sleep well after that battle victory. You’ve earned it.

On bigger trees you can stack the wedges two or three high and triple the lift without having to do the pushing. You can get a stand leg (something like you use to stabilize cameras). The point goes in the hole on the end of the bar and then you walk around the tree
yup.
That was a ton of fun! Maybe even 10 tons. 😊

Good Lord!!! what a beast of a powersaw!! It sounds better than these young boys little tomato can cars that run thru town!! They sound like an old Weed wacker with a bad choke!
Yup, it is a saw!
Big wood big work ! 👍
Yes it was!
Wow that is a big tree. My cousin has a nearly that big of a big ass Ash trees in her front yard just north of Minneapolis. She has to have it cut down this year because it has the ash borer and is dying off.
Sad, that is what got this one too!
That had to be some very hard work with that saw
fun work!
Curious why you chose to back bar instead of cutting from the other side and cutting normal (with the flywheel to the sky)? Good video gentlemen. Oh, and you bought that 3120 from Boedy I believe, right?
I didn't chose it Ken just laid it in there and started cutting for the first time. Yup, it was from Boedy.
@@InTheWoodyard Fair enough. You got her done. I bet the hot shower and cold beer was never better after that day.
First it was wow! about the big saw. Then it was holy sh..t when Kenny had his hand on the chain and accidentally hit the gas. Thank god, and everyone else for a good brake on that saw.
Yup, it happens.
You guys did some ball busting today. Sleep well tonight fellas!
Most days are like that, we do a lot you guys do not see all of it.
Omg!!! You guys don't give up!!!
What is "give up"?? Ha!
That was an awesome video. I have a pretty big white ash tree and is 15.5 feet in circumference and is 59 inches in dia. At one time it was 125 ft tall. With over a 100ft spread. A tornado took half the tree 8 yrs ago but the ash borers got to it. Hopefully this year I can cut it down.
That is as big or bigger than this one!!!!!
@@InTheWoodyard Would be cool to see a video of how much firewood you got out of that tree.
You guys got some real pretty boots .
They are saw boots made for what we do.
That saw sounds like a 125 dirt bike .. nice saw
Same size engine.
Sounds like it needs a good tuning
Maybe so, but it did cut.
