1) First tree "done right", enough face cut angle, bore cut a little out of the center of the hinge, and a little "high wood" in the back after being bore cut from the sides. On these tree's a way to minimize fiber pull safely.
2) Second tree, LESS face cut angle & it WILL close before fibers are crushed & broken. MORE bore cutting from the front to poke out sides for a "flat" no high wood back cut. So TWO of three parts taken from the "right way" for me. No high wood, too small a face cut. BUT a "nice" looking result is U didn't care about fiber pull UP vs. down.
3) A Back leaner so left MORE hinge, no bore cutting out the center of the hinge. Looking for more hinge strength but at what cost? A safe felling for one. :) HAS open face, HAS the main portion of the tree bore cut from the side. HAS a little high wood. But.......has a little fiber pull anyway in the "center" part of the hinge. ::)
Basically do a variety of Cuts to simply demonstrate / collect video data on WHAT happens when things like NO Partial Face cut or NO high wood is designed into a felling strategy.. RATHER than do as most do, speculate & wave hands around trying to predict what happens. Lets just try and see.....real time :) I have another 6 or so with "varied" cut angles, even another attempt as the Start Low go HIGH on the back cut. Just goofy stuff, CERTAINLY not a :How To". Definitely raw visual data / evidence that maybe someone can learn from to validate what they do
