Alex`s large Butt !!

[Big Beech]

A little bid of video of the large Oak that I cut for Alex. When someone says "its big, 8ft wide" you think yeh, and?

But to see that size of log in the wood is something else

The first few images show the saw against the tree at its widest, just over 8ft top end.

even taking the first knuckle of was near bar length

I am 6ft 2", and I am standing on logs when cutting to get height to work at.

 

during the main cut, the saw was just so impressive and you will see me shake my head in disbelief to how that thing just pulls in big wood full bar buried and heavily leaned on as well. Awesome

sorry for the cap video, and for some reason the audio is slightly out.

Thank you. Even trimmed down to 7ft still a big lump. Just sorting out transport. When it goes to the mill I will take some pics.

I read the thread title then watched the video and spent all of it thinking "that isn't a Beech"?!

 

Maybe I need to read thread titles and User names more carefully!!

 

Certainly was a big ol lump!

That's a mighty piece of wood! I find the 090 a much better saw on a long bar than the 880... easier to handle and just keeps on pulling!
