Local climber/ timber feller in Mendo/Humboldt!! Love seeing these videos and the excitement people get from our trees up here!! Hope to run into you guys in the Garberville area at Milts! 🤙
This video is just one more reason why I joined this channel. Gordy, the owner, never fails to deliver high quality action. Furthermore, I never fail to learn something. And all the guys in this video with Gordy, are A,-NUMBER-1!!
Another fantastic video. Gordy, your camera work makes it. Good to see Anton more comfortable being filmed and what a fun crew. Can't wait for the next one.
I went on vaca to northern cali 15-20 years ago and those redwoods are so impressive. Coming from the east coast, those big trees were just awe inspiring. I suppose like anything, if you live there, they just fade into the normal scenery.
Aside from the amazing skill that you guys demonstrate, one of the most enjoyable things about watching your videos is the comraderie and how much fun you have working together and supporting each other.💪💪💪
Nice looking trees and awesome felling from you guys!🤠 Your saws sound gives good vibes, better than stock saws just like a good ol v8 versus 4cylinder! 😎👍💪
Awesome 😎👍. Some days I regret not moving that way to be a faller . But now running my own business and I do like the arborist side but sure do enjoy a big falling job!! Great work super smooth 🌲😎👍.
HOTSAWS 101 territory...Those are what I call Hero Trees,..... flat ground, soft wood, small canopy- small limbs, straight stems,alive not burned, not a lot of big neighbor trees blocking, great weather
I've been in the tree biz for about 4 months now ( because of watching your video) lol. I told my wife that my dream is to go out west and cut some big timber with you, great video keep them coming
That’s awesome keep it up glad I could help steer you the right way nothing better than working with your hands, and feeling accomplished at the end of the day
When I served in the USAF in the early 80's, In No. Cal ( Vacaville) I worked night shift so I did side work all day, built some decks...20 foot heartWood Redwood 2X4's were 5.60 a piece. I imagine they're a few cents more now...:)
I captured that picture of Jed and one of Jacob standing on stumps from when you all went go that tree felling course. I have to watch it again or hopefully I'll find one of you Gordy. That would make a great shirt sticker or poster. Something. Maybe just for you guys to have or to sell like the t shirt for Jed's family. I'm going to get a couple of the one. It is a great thing you are doing. Also this is a great video too that gentleman can teach a whole lot about falling, that tape measure triangle sight is cool.
I'm a commercial Scalloper on the east coast (commercial fishing) & grew up w/ my grandfather in the log woods here. I bet there is a shit load of people thinking they can run a saw like that right about now *haha*
I live in eastern Oregon so it’s a 6 hour or more drive to see timber like that. This is me being jealous. I buy your products though. Bark boxes and felling dogs. Love them. I buy them at T Shop in Bend.
Nice to see some people who actually know what they’re doing for a change on TH-cam. I see you do things the old way as I was taught by my dad grandfather and great grandfather all who where timber fallers in California in the Eldorado county area for 4 generations my family logged the area up until the 2000s when my cousin quit the woods because of all the political bs and illegal immigrants illegally working taking jobs from American citizens. We have since left California for Missouri and they don’t log the same hear for some odd reason they love to bore cut everything. So it’s good seeing some people who still do things like they are supposed to be done.
They also run tiny bars back east trying to kill themselves due to kickback if one ever does hit the top of the nose... Never understood it either. Love breaking their backs bucking.
@@w8stral I agree. Why work harder than you need to and make more work for yourself. Using a longer bar making fewer cuts and only making a plunge cut when you have to makes more sense. I only use a smaller saw when it makes sense to for example cutting the tops and limbing trees because they don’t throw the chains as easily in thicker brush especially manzanita and live oaks . It made lots more sense when I was cutting and splitting firewood for people. I saved the big saws for larger wood saving the chain and wear and tear on the bigger saws. A smaller saw is easier for smaller wood and falling smaller trees up to 1 foot across anything larger I used the bigger saws to make it easier for me. Faster cutting less bending down. My 14 inch sthil 250 is perfect for tops limbs brush and small stuff. My 18 inch saw was the workhorse though it was lightweight fast cutting and the perfect size for the wood I was cutting at the time most of it was small oaks only a foot across. I saved my 20 inch and 36 inch for the larger trees after I had cut up the tops and limb wood. It was even more efficient for 2 cutters one cutting the tops and limbs while the other was cutting the main trunk or trunks . Or in some cases one falling trees with the big saw and the other clearing the tops and limbs to get them out of the roadway then both cutting up the trees after they were cleared off the road. We could cut up to 20 plus 1-3 foot oaks that way . When I say 1-3 that’s across the stump not how tall they are in feet .
Your comparing apples to oranges hardwood timber in the midwest and east will barber chair if you try to cut like the west coast,they usally have lean and any damage or fiber pulls to the butt log will bring a big deduct. The only way to prevent this is to bore cut, some species like the tulip poplar tends to grow straight up and reacts more like softwood so the smaller ones can be cut without boring but most fallers around here bore cut.
@@jda72 I have fell many hardwood trees out west and only have had to make only a few bore cuts and have had no problems falling leaning hardwood trees and not use a bore cut you just don’t make as big a undercut and have a fast cutting sharp saw. No problems and no barber chairs falling black oak white oak/ valley oak various live oaks broad leaf maple and dogwood trees.
@@danrobsonjr247 It won't work out here the value is in the butt log and good oak walnut cherry is very valuable and it splits easily the tension in the tree will usually beat the saw,that being said I had a Stihl 084 and if it didn't lean too bad it would cut fast enough the problem was control almost all timber sales are a select cut and they expect the logger to do as little damage as possible. The worst is probably white oak a good log goes for veneer and it's very valuable so you can't afford to take any chances it must be a clean cut off the stump or at best it will pull fiber from the log or worst case split as it starts to fall and barber chair or bust in half very dangerous and costing thousands$. Walnut is about as bad and even more expensive.
love seeing the chainsaw work in the redwoods. so of the trees you fell appear super deep in the forest, how do you get them out? can you show that, and also the milling process? interested in seeing the end products too. Thanks!
They are being skidded out with a dozer and they will be going to the mill 👍 I do have some more footage coming of another trip that shows possibly some logs going through the mill
You guy's are master's at your craft.💪Should come down to flagstaff arizona & help me cut down some burned up trees from the fire we had not to long ago.
@jay robert The 460 and 460 are oldschool 77cc saws. The 462 is 71ccs just like the old 044/440/441. It’s a smaller displacement strato saw which flies at high rpm like Gordy said. If it’s going to spend it’s entire life in big wood fitted with a 36” the 046/460/461 is a better choice. More torque = grunt when pulling a lot of cutters through a lot of wood.
so, does making sure the butt hits first on big trees like that assure that it doesn't splinter the tree by the top hitting first? What was the diameter of that last redwood? It looked pretty huge!
@@westcoastsaw1368 that’s what I was thinking it looked like but hard to tell from the video. Does this mean the lumberyards will get flooded with some nice redwood this year?
You boys need to get into precision rifles and handloading…mixed in with tree work and saw stuff I couldn’t dream a more perfect channel…I worked in Portland a day or 2 then went to bend Oregon a few wks and we drove down 5 to coos bay back in 2000 doin telecommunications…wasn’t into trees n saws then but I regret not goin on down to humbolt and mendiceno county’s to see the big uns..

Wish I was learning from these guys ❤ 2:58

That’s a good airport
@@westcoastsaw1368 super easy to fly in and out of for sure.
Sure wish all our Western Cedar were all that solid at the Butt, nice cutting

Hi Gordy, really love the content. I have a question about your Makita 7900. Did you have the muffler worked on or gutted? Thanks!
Yep it’s all the way gutted and we put 3 ports on it 👍
Sick vid fur sure. Anton is filthy. Fun to watch.
Nice, using Jed's 044?
Do you guys ever sell pine or redwood by the truck loads?
That black flag shirt 💪🏻
where was this? Santa Cruz?? looks like it
nice
Big ass trees there. Growled up in crescent city
Great video, I think a 461 and 500i? Iv got a 460, how do the 461-462 stock compare to a stock 460? Keep the awesome vids coming,
The 460 and 461 have more low end grunt but chain speed on little stuff the 462 really moves

Thems some good r unning 660 men !!
what are some reasons for thinning?
Love watchn u guys cut id love to be able to to fall some monsters out west. Nice to have a dream anyway lol
so, does making sure the butt hits first on big trees like that assure that it doesn't splinter the tree by the top hitting first? What was the diameter of that last redwood? It looked pretty huge!
Yes we are doing our best not to break the tree by getting the butt on the ground first it doesn’t slap the top and snap it
I think that last tree was around 5 foot we didn’t measure it
You know you’re cutting a lot of big wood when you don’t put a tape to a 5 footer. I would of taped and got pictures to frame for the wall.
@@westcoastsaw1368 that’s what I was thinking it looked like but hard to tell from the video.
Does this mean the lumberyards will get flooded with some nice redwood this year?
Fully equipped with the best gear money can buy and no eye protection to be seen.
Or chaps…..real cowboys 😂
So many baby firs in there...
Thats a dream of mine.
Hey Gordy, do you run the stock 461 coil or a 460 coil on the 461?
Stock 461 coil
how long have you been running a chainsaw
Who makes the rafting style axe in the beginning?
Conrad blacksmithing... Custom made to order. Every axe is a one of original no two are the same.
They don't grow em that tall in Ontario......gives " timbeeeeer" a whole new meaning
