A No-Nonsense, Notch & Drop Felling Compilation

Felling a couple of firs (and one hemlock) for a site-development project. Just a face-cut, back-cut, wedge and send it. Saw is a 500i, 28" light bar, skip-tooth chain, Westcoast dogs and Barkbox, and a MaxFlow oiled foam air filter.

Fun to watch.! If I may ask, what was the purpose of trimming off the sides of that last tree. I get it in the back for the wedges but why the sides?

[@cuttingincascadia5412]

Just to narrow up the stem a bit. By removing the 2-3" thick bark on both sides, I was able to make the back-cut in one pass instead of having to cut from both sides.

@@cuttingincascadia5412 so you are able to make one clean cut?
