While driving down a back road I took a few pics of stumps. It's the first day I had off in 16 days, so I just took things slow and looked around for a change.

Looks like one of mine. Simple technique. Put in a standard face with an unintentional Dutchman. Next put in a too high, and gently sloping backcut. Watch as the tree sits back on the bar. Next, put in a conventional face on the opposite side of the tree, and throw in a too low, gently sloping back-cut until the tree goes over 180 degrees from the original face. Extra points for forgetting to take off the power head!
So modified soft Dutchman/?

I refer to it as the "flaccid Dutch". Instead of a few extra kerf cuts thru the lower cut of one side of u'r Humboldt, an entire face taken out below the new back cut. Genius.

Jon, if you're setting chokers and Northmanlogging is beating us with them, what's this choker doing in this tree?

Obviously the cutting crew can't keep up with the chokerman. They finally got passed.

It also looks like lumberjack dude had to hack some bark off just to fit that 6' choker.

Yes, oldie and mouldy.
Hahahahaha
Can't believe ya'll are making fun of my stumps I did when I lived near John. That was some of my best work. Just wish I could make em look that good now.
Thought maybe they were primitive chainsaw sculptures . . . kinda like a northern version of Easter Island . . . .

Ummmm..... well...... ummmmm..... as much as I hate to admit it...
I've been known to... well... be ashamed of my stumps on occasion.
Small saw + short bar + big tree + morning-after attention deficit disorder =

Yes sir, I'm that good. Lol
If I recall I stood on the log arch to hook it up, but had to shave some bark first so I could choke it. The farmer didn't want it in his hay field. It was 3' plus red elm.
