'Cause they need food in wintertime aswell.
I'm the opposite. Got no problem at all with a real car but in games it looks like I've never driven before. I do drive with a trailer often though, so I kinda have to know how to back 'em up
My mom didn't do anything at her house 'cause her, then, boyfriend complained and had to check everything she did. I've renovated pretty much my entire house and she's been helping with everything. She does a better job than he did at her place. The notion of females not beeing able to those sort of things is BS. Even my 80+ year old grandmother is helping where she can :-)
I agree. For some reason they've decided to fear nature and it's stupid. A moose should be respected and not feared. There is a huge difference. If given a good enough reason they can attack but unless they're injured, sick or the people doing something really stupid chances are *low*. I've read about attacks but they're rare
My old dog ate the medicine first, then the food. My current one is a golden retriever that's a picky eater (unheard of!) so I doubt he'll make it that easy
I still have the first computer my mom bought me and my brother when we were kids. It's one with the computer built in to the screen so it's just a big box with a small screen. I'm fairly certain that computer have a split motherboard
If you're not the one taking the tree down you don't need PPE, no. The people doing the work do. Accidents don't care how experienced a person is. If a person think they are too skilled to have an accident they are a moron. It's spending quite a bit of money on something one hopefully never have to use, but if an accident does occur the PPE can be a lifesaver. Chainsaws are insanely dangerous and have to be treated with respect. It is not a toy.
That's trivializing it but that is the gist of it, yes. You need to be able to read the tree and the surroundings, know how your chainsaw works, know how your other tools work (wedge, winch, etc.), know how to make the proper notch for each tree (they can vary wildly from tree to tree), know how to properly aim the tree away from obstacles (the notch is just a part of this), use the proper PPE (Anyone saying they don't need this are idiots), etc. Chainsaws are a blast if used correctly though
Had one of those 10 years ago or something in the northern half of Norway aswell. Driving down a pitch black forestry road and the sky got filled with all these amazing colours. Nature can really put on a show
No need to fear them but you do need to respect them. There is a huge difference between fear and respect. A moose can, quite easily, end you if given a reason. Leave them alone and you'll most likely be fine (As with any animal some of them are aggressive and can attack unprovoked). Got several moose living pretty much on my doorstep and it's no problem. Even had a cow with calf living on my front lawn one winter. Had to wake 'em up so I could walk the dog before work :-)
It was recently banned in Norway. From my understanding it's mainly due to forced marriage

My brother bought me a bunch of massive tools and it's amazing how often they get used. Didn't think I'd have much need for them when I got them
Yes, on a tree like you describe I'd do the minimum amount of cuts and make sure I have several clear ways to make my escape :-)
If it's a healthy tree you'd be amazed how much you can cut away without making it unstable (Depending on what tree it is of course)
It's not a gimmick but it's really situational if it's worth the time or not. I know people that lock the trees with this cut to skid other trees on top of them down hills. It's not done right in the video though
If done correctly the tree will stay in the notch and it will lock the tree from twisting. It's not supposed to fall down on the ground. A proper cut will give amazing control

I'm also a Norwegian and this is BS. The car, driver and tires makes a *huge* difference. This is my first time in 20 years I drive a 4wd car. Apart from my rwd Mercedes I could have easily done this with the other cars I've owned.
Chances are you have proper tires and know how to drive in those conditions :-) That truck is still utter garbage and looks like crap though
The new pole looks like concrete so my comment won't be the reason in this case, but I've talked to people working at power companies about woodpeckers. If they replace a wooden pole with a new wooden pole due to woodpecker holes, the woodpecker will make a new one in the new pole. If they save a bit of the old pole and do what they've done here, the woodpecker leaves the new pole alone. I've seen people put metal plates over holes on walls aswell, but they just make a hole around the plate
If you're in chronic pain you should talk to your doctor. Don't start self-medicating. I'm on 3 different kind of painkillers 24/7 (several chronic pain illnesses that needs different types of painkillers) and have stronger ones for the really bad days. I go to regular appointments at the doctor where he checks the medication isn't destroying my body. My medication only makes the pain bearable, it does not remove it
When the ice hit 6 inches where I live they start hauling logs over it with tractors and logtrailers. Can't really see how thick the ice is in the vide but it doesn't need to be all that thick to be safe to walk on. That beeing said, if I saw someone doing this I wouldn't join them
It does but it takes a long time. It's normal to light a fire on the ice while ice fishing
Proper professionals can read the tree well enough to know if it's needed or not. They can put a stake in the ground where the tip of the treetop will hit and hit it dead on. If there is a chance the tree will roll once it hits the ground they use this cut
If done correctly the tab slides down in the slot. You're not supposed to cut the tab like it's done in the video. I've never needed to do this myself but I've seen a live demonstration of a proper cut and it works like a charm. Looks awesome aswell
When it's that cold the only thing that will melt the ice are the tires om the car, and only a little bit. Unless it's on fire and they're staying for a really long time it's no problem.
Thankfully I've never gotten hurt while in the woods. I do carry a first-aid kit and my cellphone at all times though. Nicked my pants once but didn't even touch the fiber. I'm currently running a Husqvarna 550 XPG with a small Stihl as backup. To get the logs out of the forest I use a tracked ATV. It's a whole new ball game for small scale logging
Sorry if it seemed like I was having a go at you. I added the last sentence 'cause 50 years ago safety equipment was unheard of. My first chainsaw was something my grandfather bought a long time ago. No chain brake, no hand guard, no nothing. I think I started it once before I went and bought myself a new saw plus all the safety gear. Glad you were able to limp away from your injury!
