Hey Dan, watched all 3, very smooth. Saw your wedges with a corner knocked off and wondered where's #4, side wedging. Keep making daylight, bests to you. Oh, and I subscribed. 😃
I saw something like this before but they did the bore cut into the face before the back cut. The bore went all the way through to create a space for the wedge. Then back cut the sides to release, and create hinge.
That sounds like an interesting method. It might be a little to time consuming for commercial timber falling. I can see how it would be a really good method for property owners and small time operations. I suppose it could even be applied to commercial timber falling from time to time. I have had a couple comments on this method. It seems like it would be a good one to do a video on. Thanks for the input!
@@norcaltimberfaller1943 ya, I thought it might be a little safer to do the bore cut first - I wouldn't want that bore cut to become a trigger and set the tree in motion while being infront of it. I know you we're confident that the tree was still sitting back on the wedges, but that's what I liked about the bore first, is removing that chance. This video demonstrates it: ua-cam.com/video/FvpW-BUnJ-8/v-deo.html
I did not think that I had made it complicated. This method is a method for more productive falling. I believe that I explained that in the description. This method is not recommended for novice fallers or home owners. Method number two is the safest and best method for novices and home owners. I thought I had explained that clearly in the video descriptions.
I always come back here and review the small tree felling vids, as I've got a ton of 'em on the property. Appreciate all that you do Dan.
Glad the videos are helping!
Thanks for the great techniques! You are an excellent teacher!
Thanks!
First time I've seen hollowing out the holding wood in the center. Thank you for the great content.
Your welcome! I'm glad you like the content.

Thanks for subscribing 👍Yes ... the side wedging is a good suggestion ... I will put that on the list👍
@@norcaltimberfaller1943 And stacked wedging, because hey, why not!
Have used this one for years….excellent demonstration.
Thanks! glad you like the content.
Thanks for sharing!

Good video....good explanation.....
Interesting. Looks like he uses a Humboldt for his face cut? Where is his back-cut in relation to the bottom of the face cut?
Why have you made felling a tree so complicated. I hope no home owners see this.

Complicated.??🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I will get to that at some point. Thanks for all your participation and support. I really appreciate it.
Yeah do the face cut first then back cut
