removed a couple trees

37chief · Sep 3, 2015

I needed to remove these two eucalyptus trees, they were a very messy trees. I used my AC Model M with a long rope to make the trees fell the right direction. I have a good supply of fire wood for a while. Problem with the wood is: the limbs are twisted and hard to split, but it is free. I used my Dad's 63 ford to haul away the chipped limbs. Stan

Nice job! I desperately want a crawler like that. Keep seeking an Oliver oc series. Nothing yet.

I know about twisted trunks, had 40" trunks delivered for firewood and it was so stringy and twisted I couldn't split it by hand.

Had some wood like that years back when I was teenager that I had to split that was twisted so bad it would not split.

Dad told me to wait until it was frozen during winter. Split pretty good then. Just a thought

there's an oc-12 gas for sale on cletrac.org for $2000, needs track work. doesn't seem bad.

Euc has a lot of creosote, make sure your flue is clean.
