Wow, loved this! Great technique for keeping a tree falling in a straight line.

Remarkable! This video gave me a new perspective on sawmilling. Watching those giant logs being handled with such precision is captivating. The clarity and detail in this video are outstanding. I'm excited to see what you share next. Keep up the superb work!

Clean video best on youtube I've seen clear and easy to understand from a Québec logger

[SawmillJourneys]

[EdFousel]

Best one so far I've watched. Very understandable. Think I'll try it today

[paulrumbold]

Just a perfect cut . Thank you sooo much

[WoodworkWhispers]

Outstanding! I learned so much from this informative video. The skill displayed in processing these huge logs is amazing. The clarity and detail in this video are outstanding. I'm excited to see what you share next. Keep producing such fantastic content!

Tell me our phones do not listen to our conversations. Two days ago i was talking in person to a friend and he told me about this video. He did not share it and I did not look it up. Yet two days later it is at the top of the videos You Tube recommended. No way this should just happen.

[toddb]

Thank you for the VERY useful technique.

[spiritintheforest]

The video would benefit from a commentary on when such a technique is useful. For example, when cutting on a steep slope where the intended fall is perpendicular to the slope and you do not want the tree to roll down the hill after it falls.

Ich bin aus dem Metallbereich, ich hab keinen blassen Schimmer warum YT mir das grade vorgeschlagen hat, auch frag ich mich warum ich jede Sekunde von dem Video so genossen habe. Aber eins steht fest : Das war das coolste was ich seit Monaten hier gefunden habe!!!
Ich sag mal nen vorsichtiges Danke, das Du "nicht" kommentiert hast. Das hab sogar ich als Laie verstanden. Die Einsatzmöglichkeiten kann man ja hier in den Kommentaren nachlesen.
Was ich aber hervorheben will : BRO ! Dein Outfit ist ja sowas von Best in Slot! Helm, Maske, Gehörschutz, Schnittschutzkleidung! Geil

the lower horizontal cut could be done at an angle to completely prevent the tree from swinging backwards if there was a lot of weight at the back.

¡Impresionante video! Estas máquinas de corte de árboles son realmente increíbles. La precisión y velocidad con la que trabajan es asombrosa. ¡Un gran avance para el sector forestal!

[susancampbell]

This gal just finished 10racks I did it ole fashioned way now I learned a new way

[rthomas]

I can't afford to waste a butt log, pencil out the time it takes for this cut and the waste of a good butt section, just doesn't seem to make sense in most situations. I appreciate the cut though and certainly have practiced it on a few back leaning small diameter trees destined for firewood or fence posts. I do see that you are harvesting this tree for firewood. And, I do appreciate your videos, always informative.

[PurpleNovember]

Nice work! Clear and concise demonstration.

[MrHangerone]

Well done mate , looks like it warming there for you no snow cheers Kevin down under Australia 😊

[ArborJacks]

This seems great if you are trying to keep the butt from falling on something or bridging something or keeping it from rolling after the fall. There is a time and a place for this but it should not be used in every situation

[kombarris]

Ser väldigt fräckt ut! Finns det någon anledning till varför man skall göra detta dock?
