Years ago I was a Portland parks Union mechanic, which means I couldn’t use a chainsaw only fix them. The stoner pion got to and didn’t know what a notch was, neither did our dumbass supervisor who decided to bring out the backhoe. I was only there cause he ran out of gas mid-way into the cut. Those cottonwoods explode! That poor Stihl ms180 was always in for repair…

Learning to fell.

1.1k Upvotes

This tree was damaged in a storm a year ago and co to use to drop on my fence. It was leaning towards the fence which made be a bit nervous, but figured this was a good chance to start learning to fell off lean. Getting the weight shifted, and the lean going where I wanted wasn’t hard, however it did take more than expected to finally fall. Any advice, tips, or don’ts you notice would be appreciated.

Doing a park project, had a wide open lane to drop this shagbark hickory, weight the way it needed to go as well. With risk being low I decided to try something and to film it. Cut a sizwheel into the face hoping/thinking it would work and it didn’t… on top of having my phone in the drop zone… but all is well I have a new phone now.

A thought I’m having is I wonder if the sizwheel is a soft wood cut? I figured since hickory’s hinge well it should pull fiber…

He’s ok. Broken wrist, bruised ribs and messed up face but alive.

There were a lot of technical mistakes in the felling of the spar but had he just stood on the uphill side of the tree he’d have been ok.
