[ThePruner]

What's ripping? Sorry..

 

[Greystoke]

Stay tuned...I have another one uploading...I made a deal with him, that if I let him use my chainsaw, he would let me have one of his trees. Last vid was mine...one uploading is his...a lot better video.

 

[Greystoke]

What's ripping? Sorry..

bucking the logs lengthwise...with the grain, to make them lighter so the helicopter could fly them.

All that work and it goes plop, just like it is suppose to.

Cody, did you have much time with a long bar?

 

[Greystoke]

Not nearly as much as I wanted with anything over 42" I fell a lot of timber with a 36" or 42" bar on my 088 that would have been nicer to have a 50 or 60, but I was single jackin and rarely carried a smaller limbing and bucking saw. The 60 inch bar in those vids was a company bar, along with the jacks. Longest bar I ever used was a 72" Custom made bar with a huge belly. I used it once to fall a big fir that I did not feel like springboarding, and I was close enough to the pickup, so I mounted it up instead. I also used it to do some ripping. Like I said...they need to hurry and find another planet with huge trees to clear so I can get some more long bar time like all you lucky old boys!

Keeeripes! I could build an entire kitchen full of cabinets out of the wood that was used to fit the jacks and get those monsters to go over.

 

[RandyMac]

Blocking out an undercut is real work, a good chance at getting injured too.

Awesome movies Cody!

All I could think about was how in the hell did they do em before power saws. I mean I know how, but jesus that must have been some work.

Thanks for sharing! Great stuff man!

Theres several of those black labels around here. Most of them good. Depends on the mood. Usually run toward the sour or dry myself. Let me know where.
