[TRADITIONAL LOGGERS]

Good firewood materials and interesting pictures but the HSE would have a wobble including the machines! Not all from the "old School" work in normal clothes.

Cracking sequence of action shots Ace. Nice Set up with Some contrast of seasonal changes there as well.

 

And a wee laymans question here - Was wondering about this situation in the photo below. I have seen forked trunks like this in trees before, and often wondered what the favoured felling method might be. Would felling from below the fork not be easier? or is it potentially more dangerous and felling the individual fork trunks is a most? Thanks Rowan.

Because the fact you haven't lopped a leg off yet means you never will.... some people eh.

Nice pics. Going to put a mulching flail in to tidy up or pile the brash with the grab and have a good old fire.

Depends on the tree. if they're leaning away from eachother it can be best to treat as two trees. some occasions its best to take them all as one. Don't have any pics the 28" triple stem sycamore i did a year or so back but that i did all as one. All depends how joined they are. I've also put ropes up in both stems and pulled them over 90 degrees to lean.
