    Thanks for the show. Loved it. And I do agree with Cody on what he says about timber felling. Myself being a woodman part-time on my land and have to take precautions. It takes time felling a tree.

    To be a conventional logger in Maine you have to take their CLP ( Certified Logging Professional ) course and recertification annually. For your own safety and the safety of your viewers, Please, Please take this course.

    The last 2 trees I cut down using the lessons you have given, and they just didn't want to lay over. It was nice, and reassuring to see you go through the steps and have that result. Thanks for everything.

    I can hardly imagine the work that goes into your videos. Choosing your shots and maybe storyboarding the video, setting up the camera, doing your live action, checking to see if you got your shot, moving the camera and doing your activity again, and final editing. I found this to be an exceptionally well-made video. Thanks for all your hard work.

    Another great video. I spent my early life in the woods. I'm always impressed with your felling skill, but one big takeaway from this video is the immensity of the scale of impact good equipment makes. Yes, those fallen trees/limbs could have been taken out by hand, but what a comparatively ease of work you have with that tractor attachment.

    Great video, nice production and thanks for sharing. Check out buckin Billy ray. I'm not an pro Faller but if you open your face more, lower the back cut and take out a hair more hinge the wedges will work nicer and you will keep control longer. Good call using the tractor!

  • @henryzabel1746
    @henryzabel1746 6 років тому

    Back when I was felling quite a few trees I hated when trees were all intertwined up in the canopy .That is what caused me to do the only damage I ever caused . Hung up on a single small branch I could not see from the ground and the tree twisted a little and I put some scratches on the siding of client's house . Could not help but think about your $110 chain saw ( which I bought one of for larger ground work) . It already paid for itself on one cedar tree . I love my Stihl Pro Arborist saw , but for larger stuff , the cheap saw has done just fine .

    Definitely one of your most impressive logging videos, Mr Wranglerstar. It certainly looked like either a tricky trunk to good that weight on those 3 or 4 inches of wood or there was help from the dense canopy overhead...

    I am glad that it’s not just me who can’t seem to cut a tee even thow you obviously now what you doing. It’s hard to cut in a forest like that or on a back you think it may go but the tree has other plans. Guess that’s why cutting trees can be so dangerous.

    Good morning, and thank you Cody for bringing content second to none, happy to be along with you everyday. Love all the keyboard timber fallers... cute advice. How about y'all get out and cut some wood, and while you're at it, cut us a video documenting your perfect technique, equipment, wedge placement, bar length and proper use of loctite. Please include it with multiple camera angles, narration and mix an audio track to go with it, then post it for free to the world... (1.1 million subs) I am afraid that people don't really know what they've got here. I have been watching a few years now and always have to read comments, so many seem quick to advise and comment...

    I've noticed your cinematography getting much better. Certainly a huge jump from when you first started out. You should use a more shallow depth of field (widest aperture, smallest f-stop number) more often for the work you do. It will help draw attention to your subject and lets the most amount of light through your lens which will allow you to use faster shutter speeds and lower ISO for more detail. I think this will also help with your composition. The only time you really would want a large depth of field or high f-stop number is if your subject fills your frame, like a landscape, or if you want your focus to be on multiple things in your shot. Thanks for sharing your daily life with us. I love relaxing in the evenings and watching your videos.
