You guys that get to play with saws are making me jealous. I want to trade jobs! Nothing like warming up a Stihl, smelling that HP oil burning, tuning the high side just right, so it just cleans up in the cut, and making huge wood chips!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT. I need to cut something this weekend. Its been a while.

I'd trade you tomorrow, time to get the 60" bar back out sick of cutting over my head.

Not in cedar it's too good of money to do that with and we're not in Canada, even old growth stumps we'll board up them and cut them it's just too much money at stake plus you're never sure where they will. I do remember being a kid and an older that worked with us still had stump powder and was really good with it the stump would barely jump up then they'd roll them out with the cat.

There's a reason I'm out there it's quiet and not getting bugged other then a deer or elk.

I work for a company called Verdigris Valley Sod Farms. Obviously, our main focus is growing and installing solid slab Bermuda sod. We provide other erosion control services such as installation of silt fence and silt dikes, hydro seeding, temporary vegetative mulching, and sprigging. About 95% of our work is done under sub contracts with larger road construction companies here in Oklahoma. We do a lot of work for ODOT.

These are the only pictures I have so far. My phone is just a few weeks old. It's snowing here now, so we definitely aren't doing much. Haha.

All of the tree cutting and chainsaw business looks very interesting. I've never even seen saws like those before.

The big one was cut with the 60" bar with a 32" bar on a 372 to start the cuts, anyone know why the bottom of the face would be slanted? The other was a 4 footer done with a 32" bar on a 385.

directional fell...one side closes earlier allowing the butt to roll off to the slant. Not much holding wood on a cedar
