I recently did a small tree with a lot of lean and put a Dutchman in the lean side. Then a block face cut 90° to the lean but very closed and tight on the lean side and very open like a sizwheel on the opposite tension side. Thing swung well over 100° to the lean!

The whole point of siz is to keep the hinge fibers attached longer so your face cut/dutchman can pivot the tree where you want it to go. Siz does not do the pivoting, it is a help to that which DOES the pivoting. Likewise, Siz does nothing in non brittle trees as shown in this video.

I'd love to see someone do the math on these more extravagant joints. I'd bet the numbers would reveal some really effective joints, and a bunch that are just hokum.

Alright I have a question bro. What kind of saws do the pros use. Like is that saw you use is that one you can just buy? And if not how do you get them? Is it common for pros like you to buy saws off the shelf? How many chains you bring how long does a chain last? Sorry I have 1000 more questions that I'll ask later lol 😆 I'm really curious about this line of work

So yes we do buy saws off the shelf but we will typically have to buy them at either a Stihl or Husqvarna dealer to get a professional series saw. But there is a lot of money in getting these saws modified after you buy them off the shelf. I will typically keep 3-4 chains in the truck but only use probably 1-2 a day

Great explanation of the sizwell. You should hear my Hawaiian friend explain it. Much more entertaining explanation also a lot less accurate.
@LTawesomesauce

Not really a sizwell? Maybe a minor one? A sizwell is when you would cut out that part of the face entirely so that side of the face cut never completely closes allowing the hingewood fibers to hold on till the tree is almost on the ground

Depends how hard you want it hold. The wider you cut it the longer it will hold on.

Face cut to small.. thus eliminating the affect of the sizwell. It just pulled out instead of holding on, controlling the fall.

The purpose of this cut is not to make it spin one way or another especially when you are trying to overcome severe side lean. It is made to help “anchor” your holding side just a smidge longer allowing you to bring it around further than if you hadn’t used it. If the lean isn’t crazy you could make it “spin”

You can also make them hold on longer simply by leaving more hingewood on one side.
