Jr I need to speak with ya buddy asap

Bob, thanks for reposting your video. I know it is ordinary to you but when compared to most falling videos on the web yours stands above and speaks volumes to those aspiring to follow your steps and are willing to listen to a voice of experience. The guys frequenting this thread post a lot of nonsense in fun but I believe they all try to listen which is why I like to hang in here with them. I can't teach them much, if anything, about cutting or logging but occasionally I can point in the right direction. Thanks again, Ron

That Bob video was great. Looked it over, smallish Humboldt, backcut, pound a wedge, finish the backcut and walk away. Not one wasted movement.
I'm looking forward to TB's video. I wish more of the big boys would put em up. Bitz is about the only one who's good for a bunch of videos with good explanations.
Of course, this is a forum for those guys to hang out and not have to teach noobs technique, but I'm glad when they're willing

So. I had my phone uploading a vid to yt last night. This morning it said the vid was too big. :bang: so I'm working on editing them, splitting them in half. . . I think I got 1 put up. Measuring the stump. Try searching gumboot65 while I learn as I go. . Sorry I'm so slow

yup, hard on wedges but I can drive them heavy tops well with it. wedges are cheap compared to what these logs are worth. I cut all my handles off, i'm weird I guess.
