Mr Butler, I grew up in the logging industry. I always figured it would be my career. Then one day I went and joined the Army. Figured I would pay my dues, give them 3 years and get back into it. 3 years turned into 22. Very very near the end I got in a fight with a parachute. After severa failedl surgeries, procedures and therapies I was medically retired. I still go out and oiddle around a bit on my property and occasionally can drop a tree or two here and there. I am now living my dream job vicariously through you and a few other select content providers. Thank you. Stay safe, never get complacent, and keep up the awesome work. PS, love the sweater.

[@BjarneButler]

Thanks for watching and buying a sweater too. I’ve always wanted to go skydiving

[@jonathandickson5698]

@@BjarneButler full disclosure: I haven't purchased a sweater yet. That will be in the coming months. From what I have seen, they have all the appearance of being very functional, and not just for logging. Get yourself out skydiving soon. Its so much better than being a paratrooper. You will love it.

Great video. I like the thumbnail too. Your chainsaw pants and boots look good in this video. I like how the pants don't come too far down your boots so they don't drag in the mud and get caught in the heel of your boots, but they're still far enough down to prevent all the sawdust from getting down into your boots. Great felling too.

I remember bucking a 7 foot full length cedar that was facing downhill i was up by the roots and a lot of salal and moss and crap..bucked it about halfways thru and it let out a big crack and the top half took off down the mountain ..i just had time to step back and withdraw my saw ,,bottom half was the perfect tobbogan for it.. wish i had some of that wood now...cheers ..

[@timbermen11]

I notice a lot of fellers runnin a stihl light bar on husky saws. Is there an advantage to that setup or does husky not make a quality bar? Cannon recently released a light bar and was wondering if you had a chance to try one out yet? I enjoy the way you cut and describe your techniques. Safe fallin to ya pardner🤙🏻

[@BjarneButler]

I don’t like the husky bars. I believe that Stihl makes the best light bar and canon is comparable. I’ve only used a couple canon bars so haven’t had enough time on them to make a good opinion yet

[@douglasthompson2740]

How many hours do you put on your saw in a year? How often does it need a full rebuild? Enjoy your videos.

[@BjarneButler]

No idea. Every faller has to show up to work(camp) with 2 saws minimum but usually it’s 3-4. And then they also have more saws at home. So your always switching saw throughput the year. If you run one saw for most of a year then you’ll get about a year before it starts to get tired. I don’t rebuild my saws anymore I’ll just buy a new saw. I’m not a saw guy that gushes over the newest saw thing. It’s just a tool. Although a modified saw is the way to go

[@kellychase579]

[@IRONHORSE427RACING]

Very nice job on a very Sketchy Tree buddy ! I have a lightning Struck Ponderosa that was hit last late summer and took the top out of it. But it's split in about 3 directions from what's left of the crown down to the ground ! I have to get it down and it's in a place where we can't get anything to insure it goes one direction (it's just about Straight up and down) the tree is about 3' across the stump we figure...I studied it several times going past it each day in to fall and then out again in the afternoon and I have what I think is a perdy good plan but there is that little bit in the back of your mind that says.....uh ...maybe.... If you know what I'm saying. We're going to video it just in case something goes wrong. It's not an option to just walk away from it either so it's gotta come down. I keep hoping mother Nature will bring it down in a wind one day but nope.....

Yes there is a lot of value in cedar. Yes it does matter where it falls. If you fall it the wrong way you can break the wood, break other wood(logs), be unsafe to buck, difficult to yard.

hey, i do have question, why do you cut these tree ? i mean, what they are ment for ?

[@Stgpop]

mostly americans buying every mill in BC and the damn well country, our mills are not large enough to process the lumber which would make pretty valuable materials but instead its a run who can fell the most old growth to reap the benefits of whats left essentially out there to cut with the licenses there. Old cedar is great for construction and instruments like guitars, yahama likes our soft wood a lot but so does the rest of Japan. China also cannot seem to get enough

[@navydogsadventures3500]

How tall are those cedar on average? I know they are big on the butt but don't grow super tall do they?

[@BjarneButler]

Cedars can vary a lot it just depends on where they grow. If it’s buggy/swampy ground then they be short and mostly smaller in diameter. The tallest ones can be 250+ ft and 20+ ft in diameter.
