Hey Cody, I had a thought when I saw you putting on the trauma kit. I watch a channel about blacksmithing by a guy named Alec Steele, he had a shop in the UK but he moved to the US last fall. He did a 3 part series on trauma self-aid where a medical team advised him on some of the risks that can happen in a blacksmithing shop and what to do if they occurred. They then did a mock scene where he would act like he got hurt and had to save himself. I'll link the three videos at the end of this comment if anyone wants to check them out. Fair warning: they use fake blood to simulate injuries and it is kinda graphic. Would you possibly be able to do something similar for chainsaw, ax, and felling injuries? Not saying you would have to bring in a medical team or simulate the injuries, but maybe just go through step by step what you would do if anything were to happen in these scenarios? Alec Steele's trauma self-aid: Part 1: th-cam.com/video/Q6JziunEdZQ/w-d-xo.html Part 2: th-cam.com/video/FHaV7hKEPeo/w-d-xo.html Part 3: th-cam.com/video/o1EKkVowXGI/w-d-xo.html I highly recommend checking out more of his channel as well. He's very talented and does great work!
Every sound in this video is really pleasant. From the ambient noise, twigs crackling under foot, and even the sharpening of the chainsaw. It makes me want to change careers.
Good to see you put that classic wranglerstar gear on!!! Give us more of this content. This is the reason I got sucked into your channel and your families life 10 plus years ago! When i get the hankerin for this stuff i go back and watch the back to basics, and timber framing vids you did some years back.......never gets old!!!! Take care and god bless my friend!
Nice one! We were taught a slightly different technique in Scotland. We are told to be no more than 1.5” above your sink cut, and that the sink cut should only 1/3 depth of the tree! 😁
I recently restored a stihl 021. I'm somewhat of a mechanic for small engines, so after getting a new 16" bar and a new half-skip chain, I decided to modify the muffler to give it more power. Living in PA, which is very rainy in my area, I did not see this as much of a safety hazard, as long as I was careful and observant of my surroundings while running the saw. As my first saw, I especially like how manageable it is, and it is a great saw. if you are looking for a saw for jack, (if he doesn't already have one) I think that this would be perfect.
Your storytelling and cinematography have really progressed to a wonderful place. Thank you for the hard work, it really is paying off, and I appreciate it.
Cody, seriously, you keep putting us rookie homesteaders to shame :). We heat our homestead (heat and water) entirely by wood. for about 10 days I've been cutting and processing ONE tree per day in preparation. I was just boasting to my wife, how I am getting pretty darn good with my chainsaw skills...AND then I see this! All joking aside, great video,I cannot imagine how much effort it takes to film and edit something this well. You've once again inspired us. If a job is worth doing, it's worth doing well.
This is great. I've been around 3-4 trees while they were being cut down but nobody ever explained what was happening and why to me. If you'd asked me how you cut down a tree before watching this video I would've told you to cut a wedge and then go in from the other side and I wouldn't have known to clear the wedge first(Which makes perfect sense to do) and that your back cut should be 2-4 inches above your straight cut(something I just didn't notice while watching over peoples shoulders). And those plastic wedges sure look useful. Every time I've helped I was on rope duty along with a couple other boys helping to guide the fall. But then again those were some old and fairly thick trees so maybe that's why I haven't seen them used. Would the steps be different on a bigger tree?
i'm not the one to tell you what kind of content you should create but I do miss this style of videos from you !!! it had the back to basics feeling to it thank you for that and God bless us all !!!
Always fun to watch. Great informative video for those who need to cut a tree for the first time. I was thinking, now that is a lot of precautions you take before work, but that is how it should be. Only difference i noticed is the starting procedure. In Latvia in accordance with the safety norms you would have to place the chainsaw on the ground and only then start it. Working with the chainsaw is no joke, always think and then act.
When I used to work for a tree cutting service my boss taught me everything including chain sharpening. He said to do the chain the teeth 3 times and make sure that all the teeth are in the same measurements.
While these videos are enjoyable to watch, it's important to emphasize the safety precautions and steps you should take when felling a tree. I really nope no one interprets this as a "How to" video and then goes out and tries to cut down a large oak tree. Hazards, escape route, tree leaning direction are extremely important. This is not an attack, I enjoy your channel, just looking out. - I would love to see a follow up video showing how to bore cut and fell a tree that is leaning in the opposite direction that you're trying to fell it. Maybe try to pound a stake into the ground with the tree. This would be a cool video. Keep up the great work
Thank you. I had learned how to do this by watching your past videos and I’ve gotten to use what was learned...twice. Both times is small yards where the landing area was small and both times the tree fell right where I meant it to. Thanks again for the life skill.
I have watched most of your videos, I could not say 100% of them but at least high 90's and how is this the first time I can remember seeing you lace up your boots that way. I do not wear high boots like those but the few times I have I never thought to try to lace up that way. I will have to remember it for the future.
From the get go... instant Emmy Award for that brilliant beginning!! Epic dude!! Co-Staring all of the things you have always talked about and use as you always do no matter what. Safely and consistently successful is always best. The silence was peaceful too. Beginning to end, this short film is another treasure. Wow!! Thank you for the magic here and the work it takes to produce all this WS. Great Video!!
No offense, because I love your talking head vids, but these no talking ones are some of your best videos editing wise. Love them coming up occasionally! Always a treat.
1:55 I used to work for a utility company with LOTS of overhead work. Yes, I hooked poles. I would lace up my Wescos (don't hate me) like that. It's great to see someone else who laces their boots 2 at a time, side 2 side. ;)
👍 I like a conventional notch for almost all my cutting. I like the back cut even with the back corner of the notch because, in my experience, it gives more strength to the hinge, which gives me more control over the fall. But, there is more than one way...
Respectful... Sad... Honest... Necessary... I'm not often one prone to sentimentality in it's extreme forms but seeing someone else such as yourself, Cody who shares, as I do, such a deep affinity for the trees both in their utility and symbiosis with man... It made me well up a bit. This video is just right... In every way. Thank you.
"Mommy, does Mr. Wranglerstar do all his own stunts?" "No, baby. He is one of those Hollywood actors that uses stunt doubles and green screen backgrounds." "Well, he sure makes it all look real!" "We have to give him that. He is one of the best. But he drinks green vegetable smoothies and has no real strength to lift heavy chainsaws and tree limbs."
I do not agree with the back cut being 2-4 inch’s above the face cut. It weakens the Hinge wood. August hunicke has some content explaining why. Great video tho. 🇺🇸
I agree, on a very large tree, 4 may be acceptable but on smaller ones, anything over about an inch is going to change the dynamics of the hinge wood and make it more unpredictable. All you want is just enough nose to keep it from slick stumping off the back and the more you bypass the backcut over the notch because you're too far above the notch and therefore the hinge wood is too thick and strong, the more chance for shear and barber chair.
@@digbyodell2924 even on a large tree... why would you do such a thing? you have 0 control over the tree, it makes it very unpredictable. by going 4 inches high your accomplishing nothing but endangering yourself and others. the guidelines for fellers are "face cut 1/3 of the dept of the tree and the back cut should not exceed 1.5 inches. one day someone is going to try that on a hardwood tree and it will end very badly...
@@ryy597 I personally wouldn't, I don't think I've ever met the tree big enough for that in person, but, there must be some source that Cody got that information from, presumably a reliable one, therefore I adjust the parameters to suit that information based on my accompanying knowledge.
Classic......always enjoy this type of video. I won't scan the comments for how many commented on your bar being upside down. I always try to guess how many will tell you " do you know your bar is upside down" Cant wait to see Jack doing this in the future.
Great Job with the video! These silent videos are my most favorite. It always seems so tranquil when you're out in the woods. These videos let me get just a few minutes of peace; away from suburbia and the concrete jungle.
You are a great guys with great content! I been doing tree work professionally for 4 years now and the back cut should be even with the notch. You can lose control over the Hing wood when you are higher or lower of the notch .
I've been searching lots for info on this, is this the same for conventional face cuts also? You can find diagrams showing both ways on the net, level with, and above .
You ARE a film maker cody, this reminded me of the prospector chapter from the coen brothers the ballad of buster scruggs. In the same way the lone prospector toils over his pan, a lone man fells a tree. Camera capturing the beauty in the small details aswell as the gorgeous backdrops of the landscape. I love this content
Ive enjoyed all your videos and watch regularly but just want to say FINALLY you are back out in the woods! Thanks for bringing us back to the good old fashion axe/chainsaw videos!
You're always so good about the different shooting styles. A real filmmaker if you will... These ASMR videos are always so refreshing to throw in there every once in a while. Thanks for working to keep the channel fresh. Even after 8 years subscribing, I still catch myself looking forward to your posts.
I enjoyed the opening of video the birds eye view of the meadow and tractor, that was great. That tree cutting was very instructive too. Enjoy and learn from your videos. Thank You!
I gotta say; the felling videos continue to be my favourites. They have an almost meditative quality to them. I suppose its the ritual of the entire thing. Peace and Grace my friend.
Love the ending with the drone shot from overhead. Your videos are often very instructive. Clear the Dutchman - never heard that one before. Maybe you showed it in the past, but I'm 76 and don't remember.....LOL
Just before watching this video, I watched the one you took the intro music from. It took me a while to realise I didn't have both tabs open! Crazy stuff.
Hey Cody, as apways I appreciate your videos and your attention to safety. I'm looking to purchase my first chainsaw to work the mostly-wooded 40 acres my wife and I acquired. Do you have any recommendations for which model of Stihl I should buy? We're in SW Pennsylvania, and I'd rather buy once cry once than go through several saws to get to the one I need. Thanks for your time, ~E
LOL i would be out there in my basketball shorts and white t-shirt with running shoes on and chop this tree down in 2 minutes with my 16'' walmart chainsaw.
I just love videos like this...since I live in an east coast beach town in NC, it's a good 4-6 hours to our Appalachian mountains...Cody, your videos are my escape to the mountains...and boy, the Lord sure has created some beauty up there in the PNW
Am I the only one perplexed by the way Cody tied his boots? I dont have that tall of a boot but I'm curious now. Great video as always. Always an inspiration keep up the great work.
Although, I prefer the videos with you actually talking, this video was nothing short of amazing! Your video editing and production skills are fantastic. This video is truly a work of art!
Im always so happy to watch your videos regardless of what they are off. You are The man i aspire to be after growing up in a unloving house without a dad that cared.
Love your channel, videos like this are really awesome too because it's right to the point. Most men are visual learners, this was an awesome basic tutorial. I've felled some trees in my day, but never knew about clearing the inside of the face cut, learned something new today!
This is what originally drew me in many years ago Cody. Now, I’d watch you bathe a cat or anything else. But I’ll always love this the most. Have a beautiful day my friend, and thanks. 🙏
After watching that I'm not sure if I feel more like taking a nap or putting on my work boots. Great video! Relaxing and motivating at the same time. Nice!!
Another thing that popped into my head was how this reminded me of being a small boy just watching my dad work. Not necessarily explaining anything, but seeing the process and not really know the reasons why, but still seeing the effort and dedication to doing a job right. Silently...
WRANGLERSTAR'S FAVORITE TRAUMA KIT amzn.to/2VWmGqN
Have you added anything to this kit to upgrade it?
No, this kit is complete,
I’m cutting 3 big old pine trees down this week
Best TH-cam channel!
Simple but, that is what you need, tells a story and you know what they are doing.
Man these silent vids are the best sometimes. Relaxing.
Silent but... that squeek right when the tree goes down made me giggle. Such a perfect sound effect.
Doesn't take a lot to satisfy you, does it?
100% love these
I agree! Great video. Love the silent ones.
Not for a blind feller lol.
Easily the highest quality content out there. Noticed big improvement in the audio. Keep up the great work Cody!

Really enjoy this style of video, well done
@Outdoors With The Morgans nice to see you here
nice to see you here but please do not take this advice, your way better at falling trees than this man!
Every sound in this video is really pleasant. From the ambient noise, twigs crackling under foot, and even the sharpening of the chainsaw. It makes me want to change careers.
You said what I was thinking. I also like his music selections, especially some of the Bluegrass music.
This is top-notch video editing!
I prefer both, btw: Silent & beautiful like this, and non-silent, filled with wisdom/rant.
the way he laced up his boot is elite
Ryan Hagadorn used to lace up the whites like that, I bought boots up in Redding ca, old hotshot guy showed me that back 2001, fast and one handed
Good to see you put that classic wranglerstar gear on!!! Give us more of this content. This is the reason I got sucked into your channel and your families life 10 plus years ago!

They way you laced your boots blew my mind. It's the simple things like that that I pick up from your channel that keep me coming back.

Great videography and amazing audio. Commercials scared a little bit of pee out of me, but I'm glad you're getting paid for this quality of work.
Classic Wranglerstar. I think the second of Cody's videos I ever watched was also felling a tree; the first was the windmill sawmiill.
I really love these type of videos. They are so calming and I love to watch them to relax and learn something!
Fell my first tree today, I remembered an older video you did on felling to help me with it!
Nice one Cody. Have an amazing weekend, Andreas from Off Grid Sweden 🇸🇪
Man Cody, watched one of these from 2011 the quality difference is on point. :)
Glad to see how much better the videos have become over the years!
You are a master at your craft,
And I’m not talking about felling trees,
But making soul fulfilling videos 👍
I gotta say; the felling videos continue to be my favourites. They have an almost meditative quality to them. I suppose its the ritual of the entire thing. Peace and Grace my friend.
Love the ending with the drone shot from overhead. Your videos are often very instructive.
Clear the Dutchman - never heard that one before. Maybe you showed it in the past, but I'm 76 and don't remember.....LOL
Buckin Billy Ray... He uses the saw to do the clearing though.
This was always one of my favorite videos of yours and I'm glad it popped up
Nick's boots, small forest ax, trauma kit - all get labeled. But not the tactical clogs?
They look like Dansko. My wife used to buy them when she was a restaurant manager. They make them for men.
Just before watching this video, I watched the one you took the intro music from. It took me a while to realise I didn't have both tabs open! Crazy stuff.
Hey Cody, as apways I appreciate your videos and your attention to safety. I'm looking to purchase my first chainsaw to work the mostly-wooded 40 acres my wife and I acquired.

Not a word spoken, but extremely informative. Brilliant. Regards Paul
LOL i would be out there in my basketball shorts and white t-shirt with running shoes on and chop this tree down in 2 minutes with my 16'' walmart chainsaw.
Awesome video! Makes me crave the fall when we cut our fire wood.
I liked this. Very simple, easy to remember tips (for a city boy pining for the forest like me who might cut a tree every couple of years).
I just love videos like this...since I live in an east coast beach town in NC, it's a good 4-6 hours to our Appalachian mountains...Cody, your videos are my escape to the mountains...and boy, the Lord sure has created some beauty up there in the PNW
It's interesting to see how method differs between countries. Altho I think your pro style is more old school (still valid ofc).
Shoulda played the music from commando while you were suiting up.
Am I the only one perplexed by the way Cody tied his boots? I dont have that tall of a boot but I'm curious now. Great video as always. Always an inspiration keep up the great work.
Although, I prefer the videos with you actually talking, this video was nothing short of amazing! Your video editing and production skills are fantastic. This video is truly a work of art!
Some of the nicest camera work and editing I’ve seen.
Im always so happy to watch your videos regardless of what they are off. You are The man i aspire to be after growing up in a unloving house without a dad that cared.
I really enjoyed this kind of video. Reminds me of @Primitive Technology Well done, Cody and all who edited and filmed.
I like that you added the walking sounds onto the drone footage also. Subtle
Love your channel, videos like this are really awesome too because it's right to the point. Most men are visual learners, this was an awesome basic tutorial. I've felled some trees in my day, but never knew about clearing the inside of the face cut, learned something new today!

This certainly my favourite video you have ever made Cody. I have watched it at least 5 times already.
After watching that I'm not sure if I feel more like taking a nap or putting on my work boots. Great video! Relaxing and motivating at the same time. Nice!!
Thanks for this. I'm trying to sure up weaknesses and this is one of them
Both the felling and the filming are a work of art
Loved this. Music was very nice and camera work artfully done. There is a quietude in many of your videos.
Amazing video. I’m 19 going into my 3rd season and it’s amazing to see how far I’ve come, yet how far I have to go. God bless.
Codeys getting better and better at videography everyday. This is a pleasure to watch
Every step pretty much how I do it ! Love the humboldt notch !
I use the saw to prep the cut site, also like to wedge the nose of bar while sharpening against the tree,
You make the best videos on TH-cam. It is so suthering to watch these videos.
Love it! Great silent video, plus instructions! It's a two-for-one!
You have really stepped up your game with these videos. Keep it up.
Thank you. Thats the videos i want to watch. Thats why i started watching. I watched you fall a tree and i would watch it again. So satisfying.
Excellent video production. Your attention to all the details is a cut above the rest.
I love these silent stories!!
Beautiful cinematography! Great content!
And here I thought this would be in your typical style with tons of info nuggets for the inexperienced to hear. This was amazing.
Another thing that popped into my head was how this reminded me of being a small boy just watching my dad work. Not necessarily explaining anything, but seeing the process and not really know the reasons why, but still seeing the effort and dedication to doing a job right. Silently...
Your basically Ron Swanson without his moustache
Bring back the forest stewardship videos! Really enjoyed watching a dense patch of trees turn into a healthy stand
Pretty big saw for such a small tree.
Rick Trapper Riley my guess is he is completely sorry about that.
These are my favorite type of video you do. Short film style.
Cody the video quality is outstanding.
Be safe cody. Life is short. We just learned of grant thompsons thekingofrandoms passing.
