    Thanks for the education, Buckin’! Trimming the wedge never occurred to me. That’s going to be extremely helpful when I’m cutting later this summer.

    Buckin, I watch how you cut.
    Intensely. The notch, the crown, holding wood, the hinge, the plates. Not cut up.
    I fell trees myself. Why because, God gives us skill to help people. My chainsaw addiction is like yours. Seriously, dedicated to healing. Cutting wood the hard work. Helps heal my sole and puts smiles on many faces. Much love brother.

    How in the name of Maple Syrup did that old Humber survive all these years? The mice didn't get it, the salt didn't get it, hell just being old and British didn't get it. There it sits, happy as a frog on a lilypad, ready to go to work. Nice job on the tree today, Bill. Cheers.

    Humber made motorcycles as well, up to 1935, I have a 1926 350 model. They made cycles from 1868 and continued with cars for many more years, up to the Humber Sceptre in 1976.

    Funny, I was literally just explaining to my 19 year old son yesterday why the small trees can be a problem when they are leaning the wrong way and how you can end up with no room for your bar and wedge. The wedging trick was new to me though, I will be modifying one of my wedges in short order. Thanks Billy Ray! 🤩

    ill be honest i love the videos you make and the care you take when cutting most people dont understand one thing about trees most times the big ones arent the dangerous ones because you have room for good heavy hinge and wedges and all but the small ones are killers most that die in the woods are more often because small trees they dont take them as a big threat because its just a small tree and they make sloppy cuts and boom they have a tree on their head small trees are more dangerous

    There's no situation that's exactly alike, so every tree that you fell is another experience. Like you said take your time, look up, look around, listen you know what to is essentially going to happen, but sometimes one inconceivable minor detail can change the sequence of things and that's where you make decisions about your situation fast.

    Funny thing is I actually have a wedge like that but it was because I hit it with the chain and just kept it. Works great.
    Your video about cutting a leaning tree was a huge help for me. I never thought about cutting the top wood on the back cut 1st to get it to lean into itself like you do. I was always fighting it and now I have used your technique on a bunch of trees and it works amazing.
    Thanks man.

    Not a feller by trade . But talk about a punky tree that would make me nervous .

Over cut may not sit over the way you want it to , i have had that happen to many times Good video.

    I can attest to the smaller trees being a bigger issue than the "Big" trees. I come across small pines that are 80 foot up and only 6 to 8 inches in diameter. I haven't perfected my back cut first setup yet. But I do have a question in your circumstance. Why not take the saw out to leave room for the wedge?

    @briananonymous724 Місяць тому

    Question: Why not make your face cut, bore cut (horizontal) towards the back of the tree at the center of your hinge, pop a wedge in from behind, then cut both sides away from the wedge (cut to the side of the wedge) leaving the remaining hinge? You pound the wedge in as necessary and the back of the tree is never unsupported. And once you've cut the to the wedge, you can double up on wedges on either side of the first wedge. Does that make sense??
