I love how boredom can lead to me learning how to chop down a tree. Great video by the way.
Bjorn RustyNut bkk
Same
@Man I'll Probably regret this lol
Trust me one day u will thank you watched this video. Never know when u need to cut down a tree
Best Corona 2020 skills to learn
I absolutely love this channel. It's so original. And it's one of the few channels that I can actually sit and watch the whole video with out skipping ahead. Keep up the great work Cody!
Thank you Brandan,
Same here. Not disingenuous.
I'll second that!
I'll third that!
brandan bellotti it's probably one of the top channels on TH-cam. Great content. I make videos similar on my channel. Check them out if u have time.
Takes 10 inch of bark off, cuts right where bark starts
says that you need to learn axemanship
uses a saw
@@velazquezarmouries he did say methods used 100 years ago. saws were used almost exclusively for company felling, axes still being tools used in the process.
@@dedompler but the skill he is presenting is axemanship so i thing he should have fell it down 2ith an axe
@@velazquezarmouries oh really, and that also includes 20t presses
😂😂😂😂
After your suggestion I got fined for trying to master axe skills in Central
Park, lol.
You should move to a place that isn't full of liberals who despise freedom and the Constitution of the United States of America. You know, a place where they actually have trees, fresh air, and water, and a real Red Blooded American is free to chop down trees🌲, and possess guns ;)
American it’s park tho ?
@@jamieofalltrades536 And shoot up schools and die of obesity by the age of 35 ;)
@American so you see um, how do I say this in a really simple way🤔 it’s public land ya dimwit, and cutting down trees isn’t a public use, it’s personal. Oh yeah and also if you want an America with trees, don’t vote for the guy in office whose opening logging in Alaska, the last frontier in America, and opening beautiful public lands to uranium and oil drilling. That was my Ted Talk. Bye bye
@@321findus 😂
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.
Especially the oak apples
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!
Haven't finished the video yet - but who thumbs down a forestry maintenance video? You are helping the environment and teaching at the same time!!!
Tree huggers who dont understand the importance of forestry because deforestation from over harvesting wood has given it a bad name.
Hah! Thought the exact same thing.
cutting a tree 1,5 meters above ground level because you don't want to work on your knees is not forestry maintenance...
Belt and suspenders?
I dont know man...
How am i supposed to trust someone who doesnt even trust his own pants?
Belt is for the mic to clip onto
Or gloves .
Funny. I just noticed that. Doesn’t make sense
he got a lapel/mic boxy thing, that needs the belt to equip it without worrying about it falling somewhere else because his pangs was too soft for it to.cling on
I use suspenders to keep the pants up,and the belt to keep it all at the same height.
me who most of the time don't leave the house
also me, watches these survival tip series til the end
This is really neat because my grandfather worked for a logging company and this would’ve been the techniques he used. (He was a Forman after a bit though so not sure if he still cut then).
*We live in Ontario Canada just for some extra clarification*
6:52 anyone hear him collect that XP orb from Minecraft?
Don't listen mate made me laugh CLAP CLAP Meme Review
What"s Mine Craft ? Does this guy have a vid on how to removed land mines ??? That would be useful.
@ You're watching an instructional video on how to fell a tree, don.t come here with that attitude, this is the nice side of youtube.
Nah didn’t sound like that at all bud. Get outta this vid
@ come on dude do you have to ruin the joke!
I can't explain why but these videos are so relaxing to watch. Great content that never misses a beat. Good job wranglerstar family. And greeting from Ireland!
Sean Rammell I am Irish
@@damienmulligan6840 You are irish.
@@CitizenSnips69 he is Irish
It's relaxing because you are not having to do the work and he is......lol.
I really do not mind having to wait for each episode for the multi-part ones. It helps me learn patience which is something I am a bit lacking on.
Plus...I am learning so much on this subject! Thank you so much for everything you do, Sir!
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.
Probably not, hitting downwards will provide you with extra energy due to gravity.
It's not about the extra energy due to gravity. It's about how the shoulder joint, the tendons, and the muscles are all put together. Please consider reading "The Armored Rose" by Tobi Beck, to understand the differences in physiology at play. @@bavarianpotato
I love coming back to old videos like this and relearning some basics.
You guys really don't understand what kind of an impact you make on my life! I've been off work due to a back injury for about a month now, and let me tell you, being able to watch your videos, even ones I've watched countless times really keeps me encouraged and spiritually lifted! i pray for you guys daily and hope you're all doing well! have a wonderful day!
Thank you Kevin. I hope that your back heals.
I like how you went through all the trouble of debarking but then cut into some of the bark on the edge anyways. Nailed it.
was looking for this comment, thats what I was thinking why not go in the middle of the girdle?!
@@foxsaint1051 - Or at least a inch above... seems odd to do all that work and then still cut into some bark.
@@GameLoot agreed
Man this videos are so good and relaxing. They encouraged me and my friends to go to the forest to chop some wood and camp! Keep up the amazing work! Cheers from Bolivia
We need more wonderful teachers like you! Thanks for all you do!✌️❤️
You’ve truly expanded my knowledge and I appreciate you for doing so. You tell the little bits of info I’ve not gleaned elsewhere. THANKYOU very mucho. Outstanding.
The fact that cutting with an axe was a rest shows you really how amazing it was back in the day!
Down the youtube rabbit hole i go.
i was a forestry tech/hotshot for the FS, and i have to say. altho i already know most the things in your videos, i still love watching your videos. reminds me of my past days
I always look forward to the axe and crosscut videos. Man, you really have to admire the men that spent there work days taking down timber by hand...they were some real men.
"I'm going to remove the bark from the tree to keep out the debris from dulling my saw blade!"
[Starts sawing at the bottom part with bark]
im a forest fire fighter from Australia and i have to say when you started chopping with the axe the wood seemed extremely soft and easy to work with.
Yeah generally american woods are soft. Dont get me wrong there are exceptions such as oak or hickory but compared to australian woods they are very soft
Lachy Parker bloody red gum
Or maybe he's just one tough s'umbich (autocensoring myself here)
@will Smith i wonder what trees are they
@will Smith I've been falling oaks of all types with axes for quite awhile, a good sharp axe with the right bevel and a live wet tree isn't too awfully terrible, nowhere near as easy as a pine or fir, but with a good sharp axe a person can make chips as big as the ones in this video.
You look sooo much better today with health, physique, agility, endurance. What a gem of a video. Watched a “short” today of you chatting of this axe on Amazon; i got one for 1/2 the price of normal 🥳. Thank you for now teaching me how to properly use this beauty. Much love form the arizona high desert🙏✊😎🌞👍
Cody,
I really appreciate the detail that you go into on the videos. It shows how much thought you put into each of your videos. I know how hard it is to do that and even more so on a video. I subscribe to many channels but yours is the only one that I watch every video from. Keep up the great work!Sam
Title: "Skills Every Guy Should Master"
Next part: "THIS WAS A BAD IDEA!!! AND DANGEROUS!!!"
Me: 😨
One thing that bugged me about this video... You debarked the tree to save your saw but cut right into the bark???
What can I do to make it up to you Brent?
I was thinking the same thing. All that work taking off the bark to saw through bark still. Was on the upper edge so maybe not as bad. lol
Maybe on the backside more cutting will be made saving the saw.
You do not have to make anything up to me... Hope you didn't take that the wrong way... I enjoy the fact that you take pride in what you do and the tools of your trade... I was just pointing out what I noticed...
How can you call that cut to be RIGHT INTO the bark? That was a debarked area and the cut that the saw went threw was like green wood all the way.
A saw and a axe are two different tools that wear differently. I'm no expert but personally I do the same. Bark is brittle and can make starting a straight cut hard. And it will save your saw.
You do a great job balancing the volume of your videos. This is something most you tubers struggle with.
Seriously I’m a city guy and only rarely have been to the woods. However: I’m watching these videos because they are not only calming as hell, they also teach me a lot. I just like to think that sometime in the future I will hang out with people in the woods and show of skills they would have never ever expected me having 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’ve owned the same hatchet since I was 8 years old. Such a great tool.
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 like to watch your videos to relax, and it's even better for this purpose than proper ASMR videos, because it's not only relaxing, but also educating.
Some times I love TH-cam suggestions. This is one of them. Thank you for your hard work!
It'd be cool to actually get out and learn these things in person. I'd love to be able to actual do some outdoor work
What's stopping you?
@@bradysmith3024 the powerlines in my backyard
7:40-7:43 run that by me again now?
😂😂😂
I was dead!!
You heard him " jack it off!"
This guy just has so much knowledge to share. Love it!
Thank you for the video! 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.
Great job Cody!
xBeau Gaming What are YOU doing here? 😂 Went from M&B to to WranglerStar videos?
Oh your the guy with the smithing exploit 😂
I love the axe guide trick that is a classic!
Love the shots, the music, and even your voice. Wonderful feeling watching you work in those woods. Thank you.
Great job Cody! I worked in the woods for years outside of Roseburg, Or. It's great to see someone putting safety first and demonstrating to green horns the proper and safest way to felling timber against a lean.
00:55 - Film me, film me - rake enters stage left! ;-)
He dressed like engie from tf2
Tamás Turú he solves practical problems.
Lmao
It's very relaxing to watch you take your time working while doing projects - thanks for all your videos
His videos are so satisfying and that's probably why it's so nice to watch his videos
Ok so I'm 4 min into this wonderful video and after you Girdled the 10 maybe 12" section to avoid hurting your crosscut saw with the bark I am wondering why did you start your cut right on the bottom part of the bark free area? I dont know why im thinking about this but it does seem weird to me.
a 2 years ago comment lol: he started at the bottom part because he chopped down the "tree part" (i'm french, i dunno technical language of woodcutting) with the top part of bark free area ! no need to switch your axe into bark when you're attacking the tree to cut it down, it's boring af ! (did you notice the strenght ? low on the bark, hard on tree part)
Hi Cody, do you have several cameras at work or do you re position when you get puffed or take a break? Just wondering
Love that Gransfors. Perfect all round axe.
You have some very good insight and excellent points that you demonstrated in this video! I grew up in Northern Michigan and I've been cutting trees for firewood and clearing nearly all my life and I've known how to do it enough to not get hurt or have accidents, but I never really thought about using the axe handle to guide the saw blade and I never really thought about doing the "girdling" thing that you did. Great video!
I should be sleeping.... I have work tomorrow.. i never learn.
I sorta wish i had someone like this to teach me these things and also thats a nice axe
at 9:50 I heard a metal on metal "ting", it was probably nothing but that's why I like cutting low.someone made have pitched a tent,hung a temporary clothesline or a piece of barbed wire. Great job.
Thanks for the part 2. Like the 'Gunning' with the saw and the axe.
Where did you learn this skill? I enjoy your videos immensely. Wait for them daily. I enjoy the longer videos, 20 minutes or even longer. I'm waiting for the wine to be ready as well. Thanks Cody!
Why dutchman? We dutch are good fellers too!
No you are not
@Bunty McCunty antisemite= someone i can trust
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.
I really appreciate your hard work and teaching methods. Thank you for all these videos. New subscriber, so I’ve got a lot of catching up.
excellent video again! thank you for sharing this knowledge i enjoy cutting my own firewood as well even though all i use is a power saw. 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. God bless your family
When i was like 10 I wanted to be a lumber jack so for 10 bucks I bought a small dull hatchet thinking it was big enough for the job so for about three days I choped and choped and it finally came down then I realised I needed to chop it into logs i put gas on the tree and burnt it all up
Hey Dennis did they have 20 ton hydrolic jacks back 100 years ago
Nah they had 30 ton ones his is extremely outdated back before the egyptions
Cody has always been the father I never got for me. As a person, I aspire to be self-reliant and know my surroundings, while owning land to call my own. I never got that, I got a sheltered suburban life. To have someone like him to just listen to, learn how to use the hardware I bought, and figure out my self reliance has been a true blessing.
That's such a beautiful one-man saw. Glad you brought it out for this series.
i want to spend a summer with this guy and learn all he has to teach lol he is the definition of work smart not hard
wrong
Dont know who this guy is or what his story or how youtube got me here but dammit i want to become friends with this man and go camping with him so he can teach me bushcraft and wood processing.
You would love Bertrams craft and wilderness he's more than just a survivalist he also make all kinds of amazing bushcraft projects.
gordoxium You were raised by a woman huh.
@@gregflores8959 no sir, my father raised me by him self
Now you see Mr.W i preffer way more these type of videos or wood working then having a video of guns . Thanks for making me lurn something that i did’t know 😜👍🏼
Really stoked to see you putting out some more walkthrough/experiential/educational content. A Wranglerstar is more unique than a reality TV star.
Thanks, keep up the good work.
Nobody: Which axe do you need?
Wranglerstar: "Yes"
Wranglerstar this is what i subscribed to this channel for please do a few more videos like this :D
Bradley Pearce I make videos similar to this on my channel.
Bradley Pearce brother?
Thank you so much Cody for sharing so much valuable information. I want to benefit the environment around me and am thankful for your generosity of spirit . God Bless you and your family ;)
I always learn something! I have been dropping trees for years and had a always just had to really guess where they were going....LOL Its nice to have someone explain it. I am sure my dad did when I was younger...wish I had listened more while he was still around!!
I am confused.....You don't remove the bark for every round that you buck for firewood do you?
If not then how much wear on your blade are you really preventing when you just remove the bark for your felling cut?
Joe Tittiger chainsaw chainsaw chains are easy to sharpen cross cut saws are complete opposite

Very Interesting, thank you for your effort to spread the accumulative knowledge that has been passed down in your family.
The Wranglerstar, out alone in the woods tending to his forest. Some of my favorite videos. Looking forward to the next upload
Great video, not sure if anyone has said this but did anyone hear a kink or metallic sound at 6:53 ish??
yup
wood chip hiting tri pod
Or a old nail in the tree
Man's really confident, cutting a huge tree down right next to his truck lol
Love your videos brother, have been watching you for many years
Love that. Only the gravel in the bork info was great. Thanks from northern Germany
Long time fan, first off. Now, I'm not saying this to be a jerk, but wouldn't a draw knife take that bark off a little quicker? I'm legitimately curious.
Yes
Harry Parks Walk sidways duh
no, draw knife requires your body weight to work
Chainsaw:
Im about to end this mans whole career
Chainsaw: *Literally ends thousands of people's logging careers*
I just lose track of time watching your videos. They all entertain me and I learn a lot by watching them.
You're right about using "old" quiet tools being somehow more satisfying than powered noisemakers. I'm enjoying this series, thanks! Somewhere I have an old one man saw from my grandfather's contracting business. As I unpack my storage area in the barn I'll keep an eye out for it. I sure wish I'd been able to snag more of his equipment when dad broke up the business...
Lol completely defeated the purpose of removing the bark hahaha he's cutting right at the bottom ON THE GODDAM BARK.... Real smooth Einstein
the tree helps the saw, that kills him. wp
Really enjoying this one!
you realy know how to let someone anxious. cant wait to see the next episodes! keep the good work Cody !
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.
By exceeds it is meant that he does better than the 12" standard. He cuts the stumps quite low for mushrooming.
how often do yall clean ur chimney? specially with you using pine or ceder for fire and heat.
i has been told never use pine or ceder in fireplaces cause resin will build up and cause an chimney fire.
The answer is twofold. First is very thorough seasoning of the wood. The second part is annual chimney maintenence.
Millions of people enjoy burning pine. But the trick is to do it right.
He said he was cutting it because it was sick,but you can mix it in with hardwood
What a magnificent channel you have! A true gem. I applaud you sir.
Great vid again mate completely agree on skills men need I cut up wood all time and work with live stock, hunt, skydive, bungee, flew a plane, ride motorcycles and love my 4x4s been doorman boxer and mma fight and have 7 kids 8th on way do try to be the best a man can be
Takes time to take the bark off to protect the saw, proceeds to saw on the bark.
I wish this guy was my dad.
Geo Explores as someone who has watched loads of his videos over the years, i say hell no I wouldn’t want that lmao
Snacks Kassian You obviously have very low parental standards.
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.
ive heard of the barber chair effect but this is the first time ive seen how to prevent it. thanks for the video. info might come in handy some day
Did you hit something metal around 6:52? Heard a weird ping.
Yeah, I heard it too.
A wood chip hit the camera tripod,
i think it was a piece of wood hitting the tripod

We'll never know... :-/
I know its your channel but a clearer structure would be helpful. For example, I can't instantly tell that this is a follow on video from the other "skills every guy should master" video. love the content though.
Amazing what you can learn with the power of the internet! Very educational video 👍
Yet another great video from this great channel
