- A dirty way to get em down.
I knew this tree was going to get hung up, there was no question about it.
The real question was, where to fell it, so it makes as minimal damage to the other trees as possible.

I like the way how you cut from compressed to the strained side in one go, thanks. I've seen many ways to do this without getting pinched, but this seems a reliable method and it is fast. It also preserves a straight cut which makes it easy for the splitting process.Thank you! Reading the tree was easy here, but this is not always the case. People should always think over their plan and their safety when cutting hung trees. Also, your saw is tuned to perfection. I want that chain saw.
for all the nay sayers out there, This was a good job, conscious of clearing branches and surroundings before each cut, clearly knows how to handle a saw. Only think I do differently is cutting more parallel with gravity, ie more angled on the log so that it drops a bit more freely, but thats mostly personal preference. Go out and clear your own hangups , then comment..
Thanks bro!
Everyone tells this is the wrong way to do it, but I do it most of the time- it's quick and if you're careful, safe ; one thing though - doing this on hardwood hung ups can leave the trunk swaying, in which case, reach for the winch !
I did this exactly the same way. Worked very well.
If i had not done it myself probaly i would have left a comment like oh my god how unsafe.
This saw is sharp! The only thing worse than dealing with snags is dealing with snags with a dull chain…rock on brother (or sister). Stay safe out there..
so glad you showed this because everyone does things different. you got the job done; thanks for sharing
Thank you!
got exactly that in my backyard, threatening two structures, a shed and bathroom. A local tree service suggested I spike to above the hang up in the closest tree and tie off the top of the leaner before cutting the bottom.
Very crafty and impressive. thanks for posting. As a newbie part time tree cutter- I'd be worried about the tree buckling towards me or my blade pinching as I finish the cut through.

This is an increasingly dangerous way to proceed, as the video clearly illustrates.
Thank you.Well done
Awesome video
That made limbing easier. I haven't had to do this but I've only filled one public land firewood permit.
I did find that the gloves I had from the equipment dealer sucked for winter. Snow got in from above and heat from my hand melted the snow outside and soaked the glove. Leather work gloves did the trick afterwards but I just got a pair of leather mig welding gloves that cover much of my forearm. That should make next winter comfy.
Can some one explain why he doesn't cut the underside first. How does the saw not get pinched?
It’s too much to type out but do a search on compression and tension wood.
Only for experienced ones. Newbies should do the notch on the top side to prevent pinching the bar and finish cut from the bottom.
Just Subscribed. We reciently posted a video of me doing almost the same procedure on a red oak with a vintage Lombard chainsaw.
Nice job. ❤

What are some good tips on knowing they are standing dead’s
I see leaves at very top so I leave em but have seen many like this
Man! You really had to work for that one!
I've tried this method to free a tree that was hung up, however -- as happened here -- the result was a tree that became more and more vertical -- but remained hung up.
You really need a lever or a winch or a peavey/cant hook to push or pull or roll the tree away from the tree on which it's resting (which, of course, was what you finally did).
Also, this method is risky, since the large upper part of the tree falls repeatedly immediately in front of you, with no hinge to control its fall.
Yeah occassionaly the top of tree is stuck so badly that it'll just end up vertical but that only happened to me a few times. Felling lever is a godsent when dealing with hang up trees. It is scary when you do it the first time but later on it's just a matter of reading the tree and making the right cuts at the right time. I do have a rough control of fall but it's hard to explain.
I have left many leaners in the hilly woods for nature to take its course, checking back every so often until they fell on their own.
Just too dangerous, and there were plenty of other pickings available anyway.
LOL...THAT BUGGER DOESN'T WANT TO LAY DOWN
Nice technique
You handle the finely-tuned chainsaw like a boss!
Like how he didn't give up on it
That was a stubborn one for sure.
That's obviously a pro saw, got lots of power
would you not FIRST cut from the underside with a face notch, then bore cut the center moving backwards ?
The very first cut he did when the tree was still attached? He used a humboldt face cut and a quarter back cut
A humboldt is a type of face notch that prevents the tree kicking back at you when it lands. The quarter cut is mostly used on very big trees, so not sure why he used it here. But it serves the same purpose as a boring back cut, so it works out anyway
Idk how u do that, my saw always gets hung up & pinched in between the cut im making.
We've all been there. Once you know how to determine the tension and compression side of the tree, it'll become easy. Stay safe!
@@firewoodwarrior4396 I was thinking the same thing, valuable lesson learned. Thanks!
@@firewoodwarrior4396 That's what I'm confused by. I thought the compression side is what makes your saw get stuck. But everything I'm seeing online is to do the compression side first.
The worlds most powerful cut... the spear cut
You had the felling lever with you, why didn't you just use the hook to roll the tree out of the hang? To release the tree from its hinge you can bore out the middle leaving a two inch strap on each side, then cutting thru the sides at a forty five degree angle so as not to pinch the bar. I learned this method from a German forester and it works great.
I just wanted to show another approach, because not everyone has a felling lever. And yes, cutting the middle section out and then 'grinding' from the sides is what i use aswell.
Never, ever cut blocks off the butt of a hung up tree because one has zero control. Have a look up at the canopy and decide which way she'd roll out easier. Then reduce the hinge by 80% on the opposite side and roll her out with a long felling bar. If she's still stuck reduce the hinge to a pencil point and try to roll her out. If she's still stuck you need to rig up an M.A with a rigging line and some pulleys. A small portable capstan winch or a come along would be ideal.
What's the wedging tool called you used?
It's a felling lever.
@@firewoodwarrior4396 Thanks.
Any problems with husqarna 545/?
I had carb issues but that got solved with warranty, other than that no remarkable issues.
You’ve failed your wildland firefighting saw certification. This qualification period is over, please turn your saw and chaps over to supply. You will not be allowed to recertify without further instruction.
:(
Just pisses me off, when that happens.
😁😁
A slightly slower cut due to the duller chain and you end up with a stuck chainsaw. Then what?
I really don't understand how would i get my saw stuck in the first place.i make the last cut from the tension side not the compression side.
I've probably taken down over 30 hang up trees with the same technique and i have never got my saw stuck.
Get the other saw you brought to free it...minimum two saws on every job .
Is there a name for the "around the world" cut you are making here? I hang trees all the time...
Non that i'm aware of. You can use the same cut when bucking logs, if you don't have a room to get your saw under the log then this type of cut is a solution.
Dealing with hang ups can be quite frustrating sometimes but it's part of the game :)
@@firewoodwarrior4396 Holy Moley! I never thought to do that when bucking. That just shattered my entire universe... Thanks man.

People who get peeved at men who try to "mansplain" things to women who clearly know more than they do should read the comments to videos like this one. Men do it to other men too. 😄
You obviously know nothing about mansplaining.. let me condescendingly explain it to you, in excruciating detail.
@@Unsensitive 😄 👍
yikes. tacticool lumberjack
Thank you for your opinion.
You did this all wrong really dangerous. You didnt even notch it then finish it from the bottom. Or get a polesaw and finish it from a safe 15 feet away
I love comments like that 🤣😍
Dood your bad ass with a saw
Thanks bro!
