Can you describe how you're deciding on poles, bolts, pulp?
@ponsseguyАй бұрын
The poles are marked with rings of paint, one yellow ring is 37', one orange 42', two orange is 47'. Then we're taking 8' bolts to 8" and 12' to 6". I mostly let the computer decide what length of bolts to take, it's leaning toward 12' but taking 8' if that makes less pulp in the top. Also the 12' can't be over 20" on the butt.

I don't know. We won't get out with a chainsaw unless there's no way to cut it with the machine. Not saying that's the best or fastest but it works for us.

@@ponsseguy I guess this way you avoid the hard work of delimbing the tree manually. I often wondered how tiring it is to operate an harvester like the Ponsse Ergo ?

How would you compare this to a dangling head such as a Waratah or Logmax etc ? I would think the fixed head would be a lot easier to control. Not as much movement.
@ponsseguy8 ай бұрын
Personally I don't think a dangle head is harder to control, especially in this type of cutting where the timber is pre felled. For myself I prefer dangle heads.

Don't you realise that trees are planted as a crop to be cut down every 40 to 70 years and replanted and so on I bet you don't all go on about farmers doing their crops to feed you all while you all go on about forestry that provides wood for your house and so on wtf
