Thanks again

 

Nice vid reg. Is there any particular reason you use a humboldt cut for the last blocks? As I understand it, they help the block to fall off the cut rather than jump away. Obviously they were fairly short lumps, but I was wondering about the implications of your ropes being underneath the gob and a block dropping off close and hitting them?

 

I favour the Humboldt because its so easy to match the cuts having the big dogs on the saw. There's obviously a trick to it but beyond that its quite effortless. The same could work just as easy for the conventional but I've just gotten use to doing it this way now.

 

Apart from that no, there was no other benefit....the hingewood was always going to be nothing more than powder so undermining i.e Fred Dibnah (on a mini scale) was the order.
