Some of the basic chainsaw stuff is buried in the back of my head from my time spent with dad in the bush as a kid. That's over 45 years ago. I'm amazed it is still there. The other stuff is 90% "borrowed" from other websites and talking to people, and 10% constantly trying things out. I'm an experimental scientist by training so all this comes as second nature. I also like fiddling with "difficult" logs which is one way to learn about how to handle problems when they arise later. The one log I would like to have tackled recently but I chickened out on was a 1.2 m diameter marri, but that was because it had partially fallen over and was still tangled up amongst 4 other trees - that sort of thing I reckon is best left to a pro faller.

Hi Bob,
Just wondering if you have been back and slabbed the BIG JARRAH yet? If so, are there pics of it on here? Im very interested to see what it looks like inside.

Thanks
Rob

Me too but I'm not holding my breath though - it's been there a long time.
