103. Sketchy Bucking & Rotten Cedars 

I don’t know how you don’t have more subscribers. This is hands down one of the best on RU-vid period.

Some nice-looking fir trees. That chunk of wood came close.

Bjarne for future reference Loctite Blue and Purple are removable by torque, Red by heat and torque, and Green by Grace of God. Pick your color for fasteners accordingly,I personally wouldn't use anything but blue on a saw, also if the socket head of the bolt is in any way deformed from previous wrenching use a new bolt before applying Loctite so you won't strip out the head if you do need to ever get the bolt out. I know that's your new saw so if that spring retaining screw backs out again clean and inspect the threads on the saw body and apply the easiest to get apart Loctite to start. Gotta keep them saws running right, Happy Cutting Bud..

BJarne your right got to thinking 🤔 SAFETY and always put SAFETY FIRST BUDDY 😊.

That was a gambler tree. Know when to walk away. Know when to run. 🎵

Wow! What a lucky, lucky day! Big limb chunks flying back at you and last tree goes right over sideways! The Gods / karma were definitely with you! Shows how even with all your knowledge, skill and planning it's still one of the most dangerous jobs there is! Really enjoyed your talk on way back to heli-pad! Wild berries and fruits always have more flavor. I think it's true of organic garden produce too.

It's the little things that can take you out in the blink of an eye yeah. No days a bad day when you get to take a ride on the wild side with a scenic route home thats as priceless as yours... @ 1:11:17 could that small cabin you zoomed in on have been a hunters or recluses get away, looked like it was quite a well built cabin, and definitely plonked in a prime location. At the end of the day when it's time to reflect what better spot could you be to reflect in...Cheers for a mighty fine reel Fella.

BJarne Tks million for making the video and your time buddy . 😊

Hey Bjarne I'm not a faller but if I was... I'd be buying some power wedges ;) Thanks for all the vids... cheers!

Beautiful scenery from a bird 🦅 eye 👁 view BJarne cool 😎.

Another amazing video.. thank you

Had that happen the other day, 65" fir and it was all good wood except for literally the holding wood. went off about 30ft to the left and smashed onto a road. had to do a bunch of bucking. sometimes it happens lmao

thanks

Bjarne love your choice of music 🥰

Put some blue Loctite on that chain catcher screw if it keeps coming loose, been using on all the little screws for 15 years even if they don't need it. It makes them stick a little better so they don't vibrate loose, even the screws that go into plastic.

Raining wood

That piece could have done damage! One can actually hear it coming in the audio (although it is off camera) and impacting nearby. It was heavy enough to cause bad fractures and/or bad cuts if it had come at you with the jagged edge first. Even small branches or chunks that are propelled backwards by the branches of other trees acting like giant springs as the cut tree falls can gain incredible impact force in the direction of the logger. I bear a good reminder from an actually very small larch branch that broke off and came at me as the tree was falling and cut a deep groove which required a good amount of stitches. I made a walking stick out of it. I know it was the stick that hit me on account of its blood-stained jagged edge. As we used to say in the army: "there are no atheists in foxholes." There should be none in logging, either. Each healthy day is a gift from God.

With so much rotten wood at the center, I am surprised that the mill can make money out of some of these large cedars.

👋🏻

Just wondering, do you cut that tape very often?

Hello Bjarne, Looks like you’re running a lower ratio fuel-to-oil mix today (blue smoke). Is something different? Thanks again for your great experiences.

What the heck is that building out in the middle of nowhere? Hella random lol

I reckon the bears ate the goats that made that trail....

What mix and ratio do they give you guys.? Rings don’t burn, if anything happens to the piston you’ll know immediately. The aluminum chain catch is supposed to be removed when the roller chain catch is installed. 3 chain catches is a bit of overkill.

Hi bro do you come across snakes 🐍 in the forest cutting trees.
