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

Ron,
I'll admit were just shucking and jiving over here and I know I don't know it all (and don't want to)
that don't mean we/I don't have a good idea what time it is either. I will also listen to the lowest laborer to the boss, everyone can learn from someone. Good day Sir

D9 and 100ft of 1" cable

 

[treeslayer2003]

lot of truth in what Robert jus said

 

[jrcat]

D9 and 100ft of 1" cable

and some anfo?

 

[treeslayer2003]

Robert, I don't know your wood out there. if they were yellow pine, i'd say hook a cable 30ft up um to a skidder. I don't like doin them jobs tho.

 

[treeslayer2003]

and some anfo?

if it make you happy.

You boys are a bunch of chatty Kathy's tonight. I can't find the TB's video yet, waiting patiently. TS, set ur phone up on a nearby stump pointing towards that big oaky (non-pine?) looking thing with the video camera on tomorrow!
I should get my 385 back this week. I'll put the 28" on her, borrow my son's helmet camera and do some bushelin'.
Hopefully it'll look better than the last one, but I figure with all the serious contributions I've made to the field of timber falling in the past six months, its about time I gave you boys a chance for some constructive criticism (revenge/humor?):hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

Stick out your humbolt and say ahhhh

 

[roberte]

Black powder.........then black powder the outhouse just for the noise of it... heck wire it up so they all blow in sequence ..... a couple of pound of anfo....let er rip.... now that we are on the terrorist watch list.. might as well make it worth the effort .

You're over-thinking the whole thing. Use explosives.

But I don't need to make that much noise. we are talking falling, the explosives thread is somewhere else

 

[jrcat]

if it make you happy.

A 9 with some 1 inch cable would make me happy lol
