Hey...I watched your video one time...went out and made the same cut...bullseye...Thanks much!
Perfect. Just what I needed. Going to go try this right now. If someone could warn both neighbors on either side of me, that would be great.
All I can envision is that old Droopy Dog cartoon.... the bully dog yells "Timber!" then the tree hits him and it's Timber, timbur, timbuurrrr.....

Lol

For a novice such as myself your tutorials are perfect. The manner in which you teach is deliberate and concise.
I greatly appreciate your terseness as it is often said, “Less is more.”
Thank you for your time, professionalism and for sharing your knowledge. 💯
It worked exactly like you demonstrated, no rot inside 50ft dead pine tree dropped it right where I wanted it!!!!
Thanks
Finally a straight forward video on how to use the felling sight. I have a tendency to way overthink stuff.
Actually, walking around to the side of the saw after making initial contact could cause you to lose track of the fall path...most accurate to stay behind the saw. We were taught in wildland saws to make the complete top cut while standing with our shoulder to the tree,
@@johnrobertson7583 ok thanks for the tip.
Awesome short video and explanation on how to fell a tree. Thanks for sharing!
Your training videos are awesome. Thank from Kiwi down under.
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
thank you. stay safe!
Had to cut 4 cotton woods with trunks larger than the chain saw. 3 went where they were supposed to go, last one was 180 degrees off taking a fence. What could I have done with the shorter blade on a bigger tree trunk?
Thanks mate, you saved my washing line
Trees have a mind of their own especially when dropping them
It’s nice to get as many good pointers as you can have 👍
👍thanks appreciate your expertise
Well done
I had a dead ash that had a severe lean in the opposite direction that I wanted it to fall. There's so much down and on the ground that I didn't even bother with it.
I cut around it removing a few 1 4 to 18 inch trees loaded up and went back the next day to finish picking up the firewood on the ground.
Mother nature made some 40 mph gusts and it was laying where I'd parked the day before.
Nice job!!! 🎉 🎯🎯🎯
This was an awesome video and you are awesome!! 😎 🌲
and Loved this video bro 🔥🔥 really helped me more on understanding how to do a scarf cut 🔥
Nice fell casey. Do you guys process the wood for firewood sale?
Its great that the 3 brothers work together!
I know there are a million different types of hang-ups from blow-downs/wind storms/etc, but could you do a video on how to safely assess a blow-down that is hung up on a nearby tree? Thanks!

Agreed. Very clear, informative video. How do you compensate for an incline?
I have a tree that’s like this one, two trunks… mine has white disease between the two trunks and the roots do too. Looks like a huge amount of foam! I’m going to cut it down by hand bcz I think that it’s small enough to. I love the STIHL brand!

Nice Tutorial
A first class vid 👍. Well explained and executed. A quality job. (From UK)
Does this method work if the tree is growing out of the ground at an angle?
hey bro im new to the tree industry currently on my Last day of course tmr to becoming an arborist any advices and tips for beginners 🤙🏽
Good stuff
You are probably the best I have ever seen.
Do you have any videos of how to fell different trees using different techniques to make the job easier
Thanks god bless
Good day Sir, may I asked what is model and brand of your helmet
Whats your trick to making a level bottom cut on the face?
You drop a tree like you do deer! Great job.
Top Cut could be any angle depending on what you want to do like if you're cutting up or downhill and why is your stump so tall
When I'm making the bottom cut on the face cut, I sometimes have trouble telling if my saw is level. Any tips for this?
Start with the saw pressed right in place at your dogs and just wrap it around. You can see your chain cut the wedge out if you look down into your 1st cut. So you dont cut to far. Makes it super easy. Just remember that you can always clean up BUT you cant replace wood. Try to clean up the extra not cut more then you want out of your face.
Casey makes it look so easy... Very enjoyable to watch... * I know my limits 😀
Maybe somebody have an experience to answer my question: did you cut a dying tree which is rotten OUTSIDE while core is firm?
I had that one tree but it was not very big: I tied a chain around the tree above my cut to prevent barber chair, cut open face, cut bore cut and finished with no problem.
However I don't know generally what is the best procedure in such cases?
This is the same method as taught in Scandinavian countries. Keep the bottom face cut level is also important. Thanks for sharing high quality advise.
Where is the awesome helmet from?
I want to get one
what if the tree is weighted the other way from the way u want it to fall ? i have one that was a V half of the V came down in a storm. the remaining half of the V is grown away from the way i wish it to fall... about 6 inchs to a foot off center away from spot i want it to fall ?????????????? anyone help please.
I like the idea of doing the angled (in this case top) cut first, as it is difficult to meet up if you do the horizontal cut first! Never seen anyone do it like that until now.
NZ felling std right there. Look through first cut, to see saw when on horizontal 2nd cut.
Hello buddy, I have a pine tree that is about 36 inches around the bottom. It was struck by lightning years ago and is hollow all the way up about 12 feet from the ground. It forks out at around 30 feet or so. In the bottom where it is hollow it has a core . The top is heavy towards my cabin, do you have any idea how I should handle falling it and not ruining my cabin?
Move your cabin. Soon.
get the pros in with a bucket truck to top it down
Rope it and have tension from a truck. Make sure you have plenty of rope and distance so tree doesn't hit truck
Aim small, hit small
❤❤❤❤
👌🏻
Hi Casey Your safety glasses appear to be built into your helmet and flick back when not needed. Is this a mod or is it available as standard ?. Really informative videos . Thanks John
Pfanner has safety glasses that you can add to their protos helmet! Pretty slick.
👍👍🙏
👍🏻👍🏻
If after cutting the wedge and you check the fall line and find it wrong, how can you correct the cut? I am a casual and as needed home tree feller since I was much younger than you. You have effectively taught me how really to do this. I can’t thank you enough especially here in Maine where we have lots of this going on. Thanks again.
😊
cutting trees👍👍
When you lift the bar up before tightening the bar nuts, which is very common practice, you might always feel like your tree is landing slightly to the right side of your gun line. This is why.
So are you saying you shouldn't because that's the correct way to tighten it. ???
@@scottrose7728 No, I am saying you will have to compensate slightly, and I gave the reason why. Think about it, If you can wiggle the bar up or down and tighten it at different angles, it's impossible for the gun sight to always line up, it's just something you have to get used to, "compensating" and I bring it up because some people might think they are doing something wrong when inf act there is a logical explanation as to why. If you move the barrel of you rifle up or down are you going to shoot point of aim? No. The tree will fall slightly to the right of your gun sight, if the bar is lifted up and tightened. This is the way all four of my husky's act. YMMV, but the fact remains, if you can change the angle of the bar, then the gunsight is just a static reference.
Olá amigo tudo bem estou aqui acompanhando o seu trabalho você é bom parabéns grande profissional 🙋
Your channel has taught me so much. I will be moving into the bush soon in rural Canada and have been loading up on saw knowledge, worksafebc has a lot of great videos too.
I am finally a certified arborist
I've been a climbing certified arborist for 37 yrs...always cut as low as u can when felling,not at waist high or higher. The strongest fibers are at the base,control is so much better.I see all these videos and it's wrong..dangerous too Andy, A.D TREE & KEY CO.
Well in reality you need to make your own video to show what your method is other then that this video was right on what he shows cutting a tree regardless of where he started to make the cuts it was well done job.
Thank for speaking plain English

Jatuh nya kayu sesuai arah yang kita inginkan, pas coakan nya
Nice sawdust
What if the tree is leaning in the opposite direction of the fall?
Then the wedge cut is useless, too many of these posts don’t explain that if the mass of the tree is on one side, it’s not likely you’ll get it to fall the other direction. Also, cutting a tree on a windy day can either help or hamper the situation.
Do the face cut on the leaning side. Do the back cut on the opposite side of the lean' that way you won't get your saw stuck.
You stud
Como 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
This is my way of cutting trees. Im not a huge fan of the Humbolt. This method you can SEE the chain come up to the first cut so you dont over cut. the first cut. Less of a chance of a dutchman.
Wanna work with you
Tried this. Went the opposite way… but it was on a hill anyways so..
How to cut a palm tree down
Message unclear my shed is demolished.
UM.... You shouldn't cut down trees if you are not sure how to do it. EVERY tree tells a story. ONLY a tree professional can read the story. NEVER cut down a tree unless you have the ability to do so. This would be the same thing for rock climbing up a straight cliff. Never did it dont just jump into such a dangerous event.. Chain saws dont have training wheels. If you dont know what your doing DONT DO IT... Even pros make mistakes and miscalculations. A novice is playing a game of death and destruction.
😢
Здравствуйте скажите пожалуйста это модель как часто ломается ?
When you explain the hinge wood differences for timber vs firewood maybe you can give an example difference between this kind of notch and the Humboldt... just to keep those high stump Nazis at bay 🤣
Humboldt dont save you any wood. You must make same amount higher cut 😂 Its only for guys who wannq be cool.
@@loodusefilm7881 You don't do tree work professionally, do you?
@@ScottWConvid19 No i dont, but it really isnt that big saveing. But sure it may depend on region also.
@@loodusefilm7881 the Humboldt not only allows for more board length, but also allows the tree to release from the stump at a lower point, allowing the tree to impact the ground with its weight more evenly distributed, which can preserve wood from the entire length of the tree. It's not so much about the amount of inches at the stump as it is board feet damage throughout the entire tree that can be mitigated.
I offered this suggestion in my OP, because there's not a lot of videos explaining this and most people that watch these videos don't understand why the Humboldt is the best option on hilly landscape.
Keep learning. You'll learn that you really don't know as much as you think you do
@@ScottWConvid19 Never heard that point, its not even in the felling book.
What brand is your helmet?
Rookie, where's you wrap around, and then tell us how to fell timber, not branches.
and you use the word basically way too much
Not an ideal face cut, poor angle, hinge is too high up, and it's a bad idea to fell a tree perpendicular to another down log as it will cause the but of the log to jump often in an unpredictable direction. Cutting trees is dangerous be careful of tutorials on the internet
IM SORRY TF ARE YOU DOING????? IM SADDER AND ANGRIER THAN THAT TREE IS NOW
DO You Know Jesus Christ?
The Good News to Our Sin Problem Cause We’re ALL Sinners and Need Jesus to Forgive us our Sins through Faith by Grace
Romans 3:25-27
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Hell or Heaven?
Matthew 10:28
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Matthew 24:51
And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
HELL IS A REAL LOCATION
ALL NON CHRISTIANS WILL BE THERE
The Gospel
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
1 Timothy 2:4-6
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
What does it take to be Forgiven?
Faith Alone in the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ (God) to Forgive your Sins through His blood. By believing in this you have become a new creation in Christ, and have a promise you’ll be with the Lord in your death, but also have the Holy Spirit living in you forever as a guide for you). If you believe, from that moment on to eternity you are saved (No matter how much you struggle with sin after).
A PRAYER FOR SALVATION THROUGH FAITH
“I know that I am a sinner and need your forgiveness. I believe that Christ died for my sins and rose three days later from the grave. Thank you for forgiving my sin on the cross. You alone Jesus is now why I have forgiveness and eternal life. Thank you in Jesus name. Amen.”
If you have prayed this with faith you are Forgiven and now in the body of Christ.
Welcome brother or sister into the Body.
Ephesians 1:13-14
In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
What if I continue to Sin?
What if I stop having Faith?
What if 5 years after being saved I have an affair?
What if I aborted my child?
What about suicide?
When you first had faith in Christ in your heart you were sealed and justified from that day forward, no matter what you do or don’t do our Lord has saved your soul and made you a new creation. Eternal Security (100% Going to Heaven)
This is isn’t a license to sin, it’s a realization that God gave you the best gift ever by saving your soul from hell.
Your old habits of sin go away over time when you walk with the Lord. No one is perfect, that’s why Jesus had to Justify (Impute righteousness) us through his righteousness by the blood. So don’t be discouraged you will grow and your old habits will shed away over time. You will always have struggles but God always remains faithful.
Loving people is what the Lord wants us to do, so I would encourage everyone to minister the Gospel and be an example of Gods power through the renewing of your mind on Gods Word. When we listen to people speak and show them love God will shine through us. The “small” things in life like a smile, a hug, a great attitude, a conversation with a stranger, an encouraging word, cooking dinner for someone in need, loving your parents, and having a heart for people as Christians should seek to have daily.
I’m looking forward to that day when i meet the Lord and all the Christians in the clouds at the Rapture. Our time on earth is running out so lets spread the gospel in love.
Titus 3:8
This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
GOD WANTS YOU TO BE SAVED
Have you received Jesus Christ inside of your heart?
What do you do if you have a tree that is already leaning towards your house. How to get it to fall away from the house
Stihl are best.. Well done, man.
You need to put the saw down before you hurt yourself. Dull saw, wrong wedge cut, no idea what you are doing
