Stihl 064 Rolling One Off The Stump | Grabby Chain

Stihl 064AV back in action!
I haven’t done any felling with this saw in a couple of years, so I missed the far corner a little on the face, and I cut the hinge wood up a little too much, but I’m still “getting in the groove” as switching saws can throw you off a little. At least that’s my excuse lol. I was also feeling a little under the weather as well.
The chain is a little bit too grabby for felling hardwood as seen.
The saw has an early model 066 non decomp piston and cylinder I installed a while back, as well as the factory Stihl dual port muffler. It runs really good!
Running a 32” bar and chain.

Just curious, is there a valid reason for NOT wearing eye protection? From first hand experience, getting shards dug out of your eye at the local ER is NOT my idea of fun. (I was wearing safety glasses at the time and a piece of sharp metal ricocheted and embedded in my eye)

[@scottw.2450]

Well, there are a couple of reasons; When falling/felling timber, safety glasses fog up on you, so that’s no good. I heard of a guy that lost his eye, due to the glasses getting busted when he got whacked by a limb. Probably would’ve just bruised him otherwise. The fallers glasses with the screens are what a lot people use. I grew up around old school loggers that cut the chain brakes off their saws, and wore nothing but a hard hard and gloves so safety wasn’t something that you were lectured about too often, not like it is today. I try to wear chaps and earplugs, (especially if on KZbin) but I cut for years without any of it. But you never know when your number might, (but hopefully not) come up, so I try to reduce the chances of that anyway I can. All we can do is be aware of our surroundings, and be as safe as possible.

You're poor skidder operator has to drive over them dang high stumps

[@scottw.2450]

Without being there I guess you assume they were all this high. The wrap handle only allows you to cut them so low. I normally do cut them a little lower, but the chain was grabbing bad enough as it was. This tree was close to the edge of the line and next to a leave tree, so a stump like this wouldn’t be driven over much if any. Even some trees on the edges cut with feller bunchers, (like a double) can have stumps a lot higher than this.
