    Hej!
    Now I come with a comment again.
    This time I am not writing to help you as I did a long time ago with the wood boiler and to calculate how much wood
    you need. I also wrote that you should not use more than 20% hardwood as firewood as there may be tar in the chimney.
    Now I will comment on Jack, the saw and handling of the saw.
    Jack must wear trousers intended for sawing with a chain saw (if Jack accesses a leg with the chain, the saw stops immediately)
    Jack will use boots with saw protection.
    A very nice semi proffesional saw. It is also expensive.
    One thing that is among the first things you have to learn when handling a chain saw is to always saw close to the motor part of the saw itself.
    Then the saw cannot be thrown up against the head. The saw is very strong
    and what is called "throw protection" in Swedish may not hit the hand or the arm. The chain sits on what we in Swedish call swords.
    I know it has a different name in English but do not remember what.
    If you have not taken a course in handling a chain saw, it is extremely dangerous to saw with the tip of the sword.
    The felling of the tree was (apart from the clothes) correct on such a small tree.
    Cutting down larger trees requires a little more experience.
    There is a great risk that the tree will fall in the wrong direction. Then you use wedges or special jacks to fell the tree.

    fell the birches when the leaves looks like mouse ears. let them lie down in the forrest with the branches still there all summer and they shoud be dry in the fall.

    • @svergurd3873
      @svergurd3873 3 года назад +4

      I agree, I know this trick also. Let the birches lie with all branches and twigs, the leaves will develop and then you get a lot of evaporation from the leaves, which sucks water from the trunk and the trunk becomes dry. Recommended.

    Good work! But you should really wear some safety pants and boots, to prevent you from cutting into your self. This is the ultimate first lesson you are given, when you learn how to operate a chain saw. It only takes a second of inattention to make it a really bad day. And please - don't google chainsaw accidents! I wish the both of you really good luck with all the firewood ;)

    I like to have large pvc pipe that I roll the log on and it helps me move my bigger logs when I have to cut them. I only cut the ones that have or are about to fall before they block the road. I use a lot in my woodworking because I have a large amount of soft maple. Good try with the chainsaw Naomi but you had Jack a little worried.

  • @staide7076
    @staide7076 3 года назад

    It's safer to make that back cut 5cm above front cut wedge point and not through, leave 3-4cm untouched wood, that will act like a hinge and guide tree to fall safely to direct that way where wedge cut is pointing.

    Putting up wood for winter: even if you leave it to dry out before you move it and process it, it’s still the hardest job you’ll ever do. It really makes you appreciate heat when it’s cold-the difference between life and freezing to death.
