    “The fella we’re felling today is this fella” my brain just exploded. My Highland blood pressure elevated a bit but that might be the most well-crafted most Irish phrase I’ve ever heard

      That's from "Portrait of the Arborist as a Young Man," if I'm not mistaken.

    Beautiful beams of oak there lad, shame about the use of them. Nice to see a proper start to a project for a change from someone, I mean nothing wrong with buying timber cut ready but so much more meaning felling the tree yourselves. Good graft 👍🏻

    Is it wrong that I half expected him to use a hand saw... 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 I watch my husband cut trees all day. Still fascinates me.

    I've been involved in this sort of thing enough to smell the chain saw running even though I'm far, far, away. I've never seen a 12"x12" beam. That's pretty spectacular to me.

    I thought it would be only ethical to inform you that I'm going to be using your videos as an immersive tool for helping me with my Irish accent for roleplaying my D&D character on my Wednesday night game.

    Ladies and gentlemen that chainsaw the old chap was running is no joke. Thats the biggest engine husky makes for their saws. Its 120cc engine. Those will wear you out just running.

    Lad you and your mate are handy with axe and chainsaw. You fell the oak smoothly. I am impressed by cooperation between you and the elderly gentleman. Continue on building and creating lovely pieces furniture.👊👍

    Fine furniture indeed! Every single piece of furniture in my house is made of oak, over 100 years old and still going strong.

      Family heirlooms or purchased? Either way, I’m sure it’s some beautiful, practical, and functional stuff that you or anybody else would be really happy with.

      Husky doesn’t get enough credit if you ask me. Everyone wants a Stihl in the PNW maybe that’s a global preference 🤷‍♂️
      I like my husky

  • @tet2122

    Nice job!! Only tips I would say would probably be is to sharpen the chain and maybe a wider face cut for less of a chance of barber chair

    • @UberGringo
      @UberGringo ปีที่แล้ว

      I thought they needed a deeper bed cut too. Could have eliminated the winch.

    I remember doing this with my dad, 25/28 years ago, I was doing the wrench while he was cutting, and then carrying the wood back on the tractor to bring it home and chop

      I’ve thoroughly self educated myself on organic chemistry, electromagnetism, all with the vast free information on the Internet, there’s free college courses, massive PDF files with in depth but easy to learn curriculum, I honestly learn better just reading the raw definition/function/example of something and going into every tiny detail rather than a course designed to teach, i’m currently learning how to forge metal all from a PDF I downloaded, 178mb of fantastic material, built my first blast furnace with an old propane tank. All hand tools btw! Keeping it alive.

    • @Strahlendersonnenlicht

      I’m about to 3d print something I’ve been designing for a while on paper never used a 3d printer before, I’ve done 3d modeling but I’m not great. The plan is to then electroplate copper onto the component, use it to make a mould in sand, introduce smelted material and get to work on my first engineering product.

    Cool. I have a GIANT ash tree, in Utah... this is odd enough but the neighbor has the "female" tree. It's so close to the house. If I ever cut it down, we'd have to get a potable saw mill or something. It would be a waist to just chop it all up!

    • @amishmonkhermit

      Its probably english ivy, not poison ivy. Eoin can confirm.

    Do your co-workers ever get annoyed at you for filming instead of working? I’m curious. If a co-worker of mine was filming and not working, his phone would be put up his bum.😂
