Always impressed by how you cut the second half of the face...and getting the far side of the back cut without cutting into the hinge...yes definitely impressive cutting skills on show here :)
I miss my logging days nothing like being way up in the mountains when the sun is coming up and the mist is starting to rise and all the smells and sounds when the machines are quiet ..savor it my friend because when its over you'll never get that kind of piece again
When I'm hanging by my toe-nails cutting on steep banks I've said to myself, "What would Bjarne do?" After seeing this video I may amend that to "If I have to do what Bjarne would do I'm not doing it!" Nice save!
Apparently the Butler method is never say uncle , make the best of whatever and don't whine ! Billy Rays been trying some synthetic bar oil that keeps the saw and bar cleaner .
🤣👍
I had a new bar bend when a big oak I was limbing rolled .So I appreciate your luck in gitting your bar and chain back undamaged. Those big old holl9 trees can be treacherous!
Wanna see the best part of an hour and a half fly by on turbo wings? Just watch this episode of Bjarne's woody expertise! It has relaxation (the view), instruction (a good way of retrieving a pinched bar and chain in a very awkward situation) and information (saw related matters and the value of wood in a well-rotted trunk.) 😊😉 Col, NZ
I'm a retired Carpenter from back east. New York. On weekends I used to help out a friend as his Ground man. The only tree we worked that was as big as the ones you fell was about 6 ft. A Tulip. He had to climb it and cut off all the branches I wouldn't want to make it a career. It must be tough working slopes like that. I'm impressed. Stay safe Brother.
I don't understand some of these people with their text messages. You've said it I don't know how many times: "Snags get priority and have to go because they're dead or dying trees. Because of that they pose a collapse risk & must be taken down". Bjarne you're lucky you don't have to work with some of these people commenting on your videos. Some people show little or no respect for safety & are definitely a huge safety risk. The person with the stupid question asked why didn't you save or skip a snag so that birds & insects could use it to live in/on. I heard you say "Snags have to be gotten rid of & why." You do what you have to the way you're supposed to do it. Anyone has a problem with that, well that's tough. You're just following company rules. Good luck & great job!!
Hi there big sisters stazi enforcement orificer , you really would not like me !
Calm down
Man I love watching this dude ..his experience is astounding
Retired Logger Here;Like your Videos Great Job!
👍💪🇺🇸😎
Thanks
The Butler method was convincing.
Surprisingly it landed perfect!! Nice shot!
Another amazing segment
Wow dude! That was intense from start to finish! How you were able to not only bend your bar but also to save your chain was impressive to say the least. Well done buddy. A cold beer was most definitely worth it. 😊
Twisted towards the hemlock and it pushed it out!! Strong little hemlock
Top job on a bit of a challenging tree, neat tip with the axe on the bar and chain.
What a job!
AWESOME JOB
Absolute genius method to release bar and chain.
Thanks for walking over and cutting that blowdown chunk out of the way for just us. I owe you a merch order! Gotta get my bride to transact it, ha.
Good stuff
Thanks for the future order 😁🤙
Very impressive! :O Thanks!
Thank God for those straps!
Awesome!
Love what you do so jelus would love to do that don’t have anything in England
nice work, new AXe,play safe, Clarkie
Hi bob. You from CR?
37:50 is the money shot. The perspective makes the tree look like it's 20' across!
👍 WOW great show !! Loved the 2 camera view 👀 did that tree look like it would have
" barber chaired " had it not been for the straps 🤔
stay safe Bjarne 😉 better to error on the side of safety in your line of work
love how some of the trees jump off the stump
I've said it before, but I love to see those big saw chips fly!!
WOW!
that’s a big one
Great videos and very instructive, plus the bonus is the scenery.
Are there any cedars which do not rot out the middle ? It seems that even small cedars, I have on my land are already starting to rot out at the center.
Is there a spray or trick to not have the centers rot out ?
It’s not uncommon for the bigger cedars to have rot in the middle. It also depends partly on where it grows. Some areas the cedars are mostly solid. Other areas they’re all hollow.
Bjarne, as far as the “adding an extra drive link” goes, Donny Walker covered the problem by just milling out (or filing out or whatever you want to do) to make that additional room. THEN you’ll be able to run a typical Stihl drive link count chain. It’s the same way for ALL the Stihl bars when used for another brand of saws IF Cannon tells you that it “fits”.
Hey Bjarne... how long is your ax handle, and the weight on the head. Trying to fine tune my rig. Thanks
Hey Bjarne- what’s that extra mudflap on your clutch/chain cover?
Wonder how much money worth of cedar left in usable slabs quite a bit i am guessing
Kayu super rsksasa mantap
Damn I don't know how you stand the wallpaper in the office you're using recently 😀Is that on Vancouver Island ? Take Care
Aye it must be hard...I was watching from across the pond and just thinking that could be a Scottish glen....well apart from the giant cedars!
All I can say is it’s western BC. 🤙
A subjection hopefully,as your rocking your saw back and forth,you can put a broken branch in between your saw, inside bar part and the tree as you rocket towards you, which gives you leverage,to hopefully removing it easier,🦅
The most powerful felling wedge today is now available for pre-order
The lean and a tree is so great if you just make a cut it'll go down
Perhaps you have said in previous videos. Can you tell me what the straps on tree are made of. Once again great video.
It prevents the butt from splitting apart when it hits the ground
This I know. What are the straps made of / Material
Hi Bjarne. Have you heard anything about Husqvarna working on a new 80cc saw? Sounds like they may be coming out with one. Thanks
Nope. Haven’t heard anything about it. I hope it’s fuel injected because they’re already falling behind Stihl with their 500i
@@BjarneButler Yep. Donny was talking about it a while back. Maybe we will hear something pretty soon.
c/- The Banana Boat Song: "6 foot,7 foot, 8 foot stump!" :)
Question why did you not save the snag as habitat for birds and insects? Steel toes or composite? Who bands the trees, the surveyor? Thank you and have a good week.
It’s to unsafe to leave a snag in the block, removing it keeps future workers in the block safe. Safety trumps everything
@@mke6445davis Thank you.
How much of a "tooth skip" are you running on your chain? In your line of work, do you ever use a "full house"? Asking as Im an amateur only cutting firewood.
Don't bother with such stuff my man , if you are running a max length bar for your saw just don't file depth gauges to low ,
less filing is more better ,consistent high chain speed is the goal , if motor bogs down you have filed to much off . I have saws that are older than you lol .
An avalanche of saw dust, off that one.
Why do you put straps on the tree for does anyone know?
Screw hiking for another bar Butler method for the win😂
👍👍👍
What is the purpose of the white strapping around the base of large trees?
It is an attempt to keep the trunk from splitting apart like this one did, for better salvage. Normally there are three straps on these big trees, and normally they don't fall quite so far!
You must have some tuff tough hands. It doesn’t look particularly warm out there.
What saw is that?
You obviously know how to fell monstrous trees, but what’s your rose pruning like?
bonjour bjarne, super video, quelle est la signification des 3 rubans autour de certains arbres que tu coupes. Nous en France ils sont soit marqués avec un flachis et une empreinte au corps et au pied soit d'une croix ou un trait à la peinture.
Those bands around the tree are to help keep it together after falling, it really helps saving the tree out
@@mke6445davis OK et ça marche chez vous ?
. Nous On a essayé cela sur des peupliers clone I214 avec 3 ou 4 feuillards et bien nul si l'arbre a envie d'éclaté les feuillards acier ne résistent pas.
@@bernardmacari5897some fail but I think it a pretty high success rate, maybe you need better bands ?
@@mke6445davis vous mettez cela sur des arbres en fin de vie ou sec avec risque qu'ils soient creux, nous on mettait cela sur des arbres verts de 30/35 ans mais trés nerveux,
la nervosité du bois venait du sol même de la chaine ils arrivaient à l'exploser et parfois ils ne fendaient pas tout de suite mais é ou 3 minutes aprés l'abattage, dans la coupe on aurait dit des crocodiles avec la gueule ouverte !!
Wonder what plan C would be?
Full credit my man, rather thee than me😅.
Bjarne you try the 8 ball in the side pocket. Tks god it flat out your sandwich 🥪 in your bag BJarne. 😊
lol i dont understand how you got pinched but then went back in the same cut and carried on cutting more without getting pinched again ?
1:14:37 and 1:16:55 he explains a bit there. I assume what is still holding some space apart in the cut section is the hinge at the front and the holding wood at the back. Once the tree sat on the empty space at the low side, when he went back in again he took out more wood in that space. It's true, it seems impossible when you see it. He went into it quite fast without doing back-and-forths (to evacuate the chips and clear more space) but it worked out for him. Pretty impressive!!! Note: this is my assumption, I have a chair + screen job ;) (I am happy to have a 372xp with a 28'' bar and use it from time to time though ;) )
Seems like you just got to have one of those days every once in a while💩no sweat Bjarne you got this
Like I expected, you make chopstick for giant guy.
❤😮😮
Need some captive bar nuts on that saw
Pas di ukur diameter nya sangat besar
exhausting go, lot of shattered wood
👋🏻
Watching you I can almost smell the sweet aroma of fresh cedar sawdust.
Maybe Donnie Walker will put his think'n cap on and devise some captive bar nuts for the outer felling dog. I keep some with me in my possibles bag.
Ya me too. They’re too easy to drop and lose
Westcoast saw makes a side cover with captive bar nuts
Just wondered why you don t put a longer bar on for big wood, easter, safer and less work and faster. I mean I can kill a bear with a 22 yet when I go bear hunting I use a much bigger gun. Just saying. W e always had a big gun ready if we needed it. I watch all your videos, love them brings back good memories with good people.
Most of the time don’t need the 42” bar. It’s a real pain limbing and brushing out around a tree and cutting the smaller trees with a bar that big. So then I’d have to switch back to a 36” bar. That’s the main reason nobody runs a 42”, only when absolutely necessary. And usually if the 36” is too short, then we cut a window 🤙
Just wondering if loggers in camp still play "99" or are there a generation of video gamers
Never heard of “99”, some guys play video games after work but most don’t.
I’m sure me has no Workmen’s comp🙈😋😋😋he does have impressive skills
WCB coverage is mandatory in BC
You're going to get stuck like that😮
I know what you did with that hang up , but I won't tell big sister .
🤷♂️🤘
That was a tangled up looking mess of trees you had.
WHAT ARE THOSE WHITE THINGS FOR THAT ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TREE
The bands are to hopefully keep a hollow tree from breaking apart when coming off the stump. Safety purpose.
If the bands hold the tree together they save any good wood that is in the tree.

Dynamite safer
I dnt completely understand ur method of havin time takin from day to retrieve ur pinched gear
But then immediately get right back into the pinch..
A tree like that is jackable right? Why not take the time to set the jack before u get to far into ur back cut...
Love the content tho.!!
Hi Tyler thanks for watching. The tree had a down hill lean and with the center rot there wasn’t much solid wood on the low side. So I got pinched in this scenario but if the tree was solid then I wouldn’t have been pinched because there would have been more wood to hold the tree from compressing the low side. Also, in this tree I suspected that I was also stuck mostly due to sawdust binding up in the chain. If the tree compressed my bar heavily then there would be no way it could get it out like I did in this video. Which is why I was able to continue cutting again afterward. Hope I explained was that well enough
@@BjarneButler absolutely! Thank u for replying
You mad at that tree ?
How come your having to cut trees that are barely shakewood. No way it can pay to fly or even conventional log that stuff and make money. Lot of risk and time too
I often wondered that too. We usually leave them behind as a wildlife tree
The person making the call, does not know what the ceter of the tree is like.
Cruising is not an exact science with cedar and hemlock, it's an educated guess on really old timber.
Once that treeline is opened up, that tree probably would not stand a good blow, it would come down eventually in a wind storm.
@@als1023 Also, I think it is a clear cut job and all the trees have to come down 'cause d'boss says so
Not trying to be a jerk. I cruise timber for a living and can tell that tree is 100 percent shit from youtube i dont even need to see the crown lol
from my standpoint, I wouldn't try to second guess the man in the field@@toucanvanbeak
😂😂
no gloves and few other bad habits......safety first
Gloves not required and a lot of guys don’t wear gloves. But some still do especially in the winter. There’s always room for improvement 🤙
Trying to be real fancy, I'm on camera😢
