cull scale? ya have to cut trees ya not sellin? or is that rotten or bad.

Cull scale is ( root cuts. Riggin cuts. Break cuts. School karma. . Snags. )
A Bushler gets paid for all his cuts. Or at least we used to. . I was day wageing this job. 300$ for 6 hours a day. Plus travel and room. Dan supplied the gas and oil and crummy. Sometimes we worked longer. Which I gave him as I really want him t do well on this sale. And because being a small time Gypo logger myself I know what its like wanting everything to happen in a day that is supposed to. I used his Simington 451 and since I changed his angles a little I did all the grinding. . I had his 372 cutting so fast that sometimes I wondered why I was packing a 390 .

School marms

ron,
im cool if you are. no offense taken and none implied. were not saving lives, just having a couple laughs.

I'm cool with you and all here. Just a little hot at myself for how I worded that post. The implication arising from my wording would have ticked me off. Thanks for helping me see it. Ron

Gutted a great set of oak today. Camera was full on the memory side so I just took a couple pics. Me and the skidder OP were turnin' and burnin' so I only got to take a couple pics of the timber. The small set had (2) 5 cutters, (4) 3 cutters and the rest were 4 cutters. I put htem either straight down the hill or 1/4 down the hill or side hilled. The red oak was side hilled due to a fence.

School Marms lol......use yer imagination bro as to why they got that name lol .....could also come from the old rivers drivers as those things didn't roll over in the water lol

Clint ; on this coast we call a double top or more tree a school mom / school marms. If it is just a sucker that took off
Like is common with red cedar. That's just a sucker.
Most school moms are relitavly equal diameter and length. 2 trees which seem to be growing out of the same stump is just a double stump.

Sounds like you had a good day.

 

[twochains]

Yeh, it was kinda stressful though. I had to time everything just right with the loads. Pine yard still hasn't opened up yet and the truck is having to make a 7 hr turn. So I have to have a load of pine the day before then he comes back for oak saw logs then I have a load of pine saw logs for in the morning. It not bad but it's a hustle.
