I have not been cutting any trees for about a year due to winter and medical problems, but this weekend I got back into tree cutting, clearing up after a heavy snow and high winds. I notice I have a changed attitude to the way I handle my chainsaw, the way I cut the trees and have a greater respect for what I am working, all thanks to watching your videos. I now enjoy working with the chainsaw, whereas it used to be a 'burden' that just had to be done.
Right on 🤙. And thanks for watching
Looks like it's finally getting close to spring for you🙏 Amen. My Dad has always told me, 3 seasons out off the year are great weather, then we must suffer through winter to appreciate the rest😅😂 stay safe out there Bjarne.
How does the boss and other fellers feel about your filming. Thanks
No one talks about it, we just go about work as normal 🤷♂️. I don’t film other guys at work without permission, that’s kinda why you don’t see much about other parts of the logging operations. My website doesn’t make much, neither does YT ads, so falling is still what pays the bills. So I can’t jeopardize my job by intrusively filming everything.
LOL... every bush rat's bonus worth a smile is when he can sit down and do the work. 😆
Good videos. Keep them coming. 👍🏼
See 19600 board feet x 4 logs 🪵 that put up lumber 🪵 fast in the mill BJarne. 😊😊

Quei numeri segnati sui tronchi
Significa che è un buon legno ?
In ogni caso sei molto bravo
Could you discuss the process for an area getting logged? I'm assuming this is national forest land, how do logging companies get approval to log areas and how does forestry service decide where to log and mark out areas? What steps happen before you get to cut, and who all goes in after the trees are dropped for getting lumber, and replanting?
I cut on government and private lands. I don’t know anything about the permitting processes or how they choose when to log a certain area. I’m just a dumb logger that goes where I’m told to cut 🤷♂️. Every area we cut does get replanted though. The First Nations are taking over a lot of logging here on the coast so we are cutting a lot for them now.
From my understanding that could be dated a bit the crown or government in Canada owns the wood, allots it to the mills at a price, the mills have their loggers, loggers have employees. Some kind of environmental study is done as well as a cruise to determine total board feet, or cubed feet. This allotment is the sticking point in the NAFTA agreement because the wood is not sold on an open market and if Canada needs to be more competitive to sell their lumber they drop the price to the mill. Unfortunately the USA is the largest importer of lumber, instead of cutting their own.
How'd those miendels treat you in the wet weather?
Pretty good actually, gotta grease them up real good though
Anh cưa hạ cây rất to rất khéo 👍
Do you like that fancy 592 better than the ol 390?
Yup. They’ve fixed the top cover and inside dog and on/off switch issues.
How long is your bar?
36”
@@BjarneButler do you need a longer bar sometimes?
How old was this tree?

Always try fall that tree no wedging, I know todo but….so important when your single jacking
Ya I made a mistake to the small undercut, should’ve been bigger
Hey I went on your website to order some of your wedges but it said they won’t arrive til Jan or fed of 2025 is that accurate?
No that not right. Seems like I got another mystery problem with Shopify again. Thanks for noticing me. I just got outta camp and back to civilization, I’ll look into it thanks

How about Some Saw info Cubic CCs and Chain Filing Profiles. Above and side. GAS MIX Ratio Type octane rating etc, also. Chain Tension on Bar. And A. My 😂
When You GAS UP. And what about a thicker. Power Wedge. InStead of Doubling. I Carried a Metal Splitting Wedge So I would not have Too Double up My Power wedges.
@@williamrosier5558 a thicker power wedge has been around for years.
I run a 572 & 592. I use a 3/8 .063 skip tooth, round file chain. A thicker wedge is fine it just takes more work wedging to lift the tree. I don’t mix gas that’s the trainee/rookie’s job. But it’s 50:1. Don’t know the octane rating. I like my chain tension: snug, especially with lots of brush
