Hand Cutting

[Spruce Pirate]

Short (??) video of a job we were on the other month. Felling the bankings, oversize and hairy trees to the harvester. Forestry, not arb, but might be interesting/entertaining for some.

Good to see some of the more mundane aspects of tree work.

Good video, well done

good stuff, is that up by the rest and be thankful? you can always tell a good feller by the way they step back as the tree begins to fall,as to avoid being hit by falling branches etc. nice straight spruce too.

Great video , well worth it. And a good early start , I've known woodcutters to show up 10am and be gone for 2pm on a daily basis.

What's the red light flashing against the windscreen.

Thanks all.

Yep, up at the bottom of The Rest, and good timber. A couple of the big ones were getting two 6.2's from the butt.
