I like the fact that when something doesn't work your willing to admit it. We're guys, we do things, we learn things from others, and we just go out and do it. We don't usually have cameras recording us. When we sometimes fail, we learn from it. It's the only way we succeed. But none of us want to admit, nevertheless show it on video. You are a true "Man with inspirational meek qualities"! That's a God send; Hold Fast and stay true!

Most important part of chopping down a tree: After you finish punching the trunk out, you need to look up inside the tree and punch the hidden trunk out, otherwise the top of the tree will stay floating in the air, then wait around a minute to collect some saplings and apples that fall.

I've done some fighting in the SCA (medieval fighting), and I've discovered that for gals, an underhand blow (upward swinging cut) is easier for gals while it's harder for guys, and an overhand blow (downward swinging cut) is harder for gals, but conversely easier for guys. I did some research, and it turns out the physiology of it has to do with how the tendons connect to muscles & bones, and the subtle differences in how our joints fit together. So for guys who are swinging an axe, it is definitely harder to swing up into the tree from below, but ladies who are equally conditioned to the work will probably find it the better angle of attack for them.

A dutchman in woodfelling isn't a bad thing in itself, only if you didnt plan on doing it. It is a technique where you use the bit he explained as a hinge to perfectly aim the tree. The technique hes using does not benefit from having a dutchman, hence why he explained it as a negative thing.

A barber chair is when the trunk of the tree splits up the lenght of the tree. not when your holding wood brakes off. dangerous cause the trunk will donkey kick way up at you depending on the sevarity. it could split way up like 4 feet or more like ive wittnessed then brake off and fall down beside the stump. and hit you or your expencive saw. for those of you who learn by doing. take a 4 inch tree works best on ash. back cut it without a knotch about half way or a small bit more. grab the tree and pull it over and you will then under stand what a barber chair is. next you have to learn when to expect one out of a tree.

I was fortunate to take the Game of Logging course before and a technique they taught was to make the hinge cut to be about 90 degrees in total, 45 up from horizontal and 45 down. This let's your hinge function for the complete fall and not buck when the hinge breaks after falling half way down. Something I've always done since.

Cut down my first large tree with a hunters axe (my sharpest axe and I was working in close proximity to another trunk). I didn't have a crosscut saw so I had to make the upcuts. Honestly the hardest part was making the back cut at an angle to where I could fell it without a wedge. I ended up sharpening my full size axe to get some deeper cuts using more of my body to leverage the head deep enough to start the tree over. Once I heard the first crack, I hightailed it out of there because I wasn't sure if that log wasn't going to rebound! Fortunately she fell clean and I can say my first "large" tree (a 10 in white oak) took me about 45 minutes. Now processing the sucker will be something else without a splitting axe or maul.

With great videos like this i feel better about trying the old ways to harvest a tree that may not be leaning the perfect way. thank you for the safety part about the where the flat cut meets the angle. i have cut many trees and have never paid much attention to this part because well i didn't know. these videos are a real inspiration.

@bob_frazier

Lost to antiquity and open to debate. But there are lots of different Dutchmen cuts, all designed to move a tree against where it wants to naturally fall: hard, soft and swing Dutchmen cuts for instance. There are some fallers that can truly do seemingly unbelievable things against the lean. I've seen someone palm a wedge into a falling tree's closing face to swing a tree. That's a hard Dutchmen of sorts too. (Not me.) Some say the Dutch were sloppy cutters and the technique of moving a falling tree opposite the direction of the added (or sloppy) undercut began quite by accident. Some say a really expert cutter who was Dutch developed the "artistry" of making tree's "fly" away as in the flying Dutchmen - opposite the direction they would otherwise fall. I don't know.

Standard stump height through much of the Western US is one foot or less. Cody usually exceeds this when he "mushrooms" the stump. Hope you move your truck Cody. For all your good work, trees sometimes do not obey! "Timber!" is not a directional phrase.

Would love to see a video about restoring a crosscut saw. I have wanted one for many years. I recently inherited one as i helped my father-in-law move. It has all the teeth, but is rusty and dull. I can only guess careful file work is the only way to sharpen. Should there be a set on the teeth?
