Handy tool for any saw owner. #Post#: 6809-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: w8ye Date: January 18, 2012, 9:09 am --------------------------------------------------------- When you just take one saw to the woods, it will invariably get pinched first thing! My son had to leave a saw in a tree one evening until I brought another saw to cut it out the next morning. So be prepared. That Miracle Wedge would have come in handy for me a few times. I always take at least three saws and a couple wedges with me. I have plenty to choose from. #Post#: 6813-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: Al Smith Date: January 18, 2012, 6:13 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Glad to hear you testify .In addition to rocking a chain ,installing a chain backwards ,oiling the gas tank you will given enough time hang a saw .You might even do two in the same tree .Anybody that hasn't either has had very little time on the trigger or handles the truth carelessly . #Post#: 6816-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: rgclmc Date: January 18, 2012, 6:31 pm --------------------------------------------------------- How about hanging two saws then dropping the tree on one of them. :-[ #Post#: 6820-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: Al Smith Date: January 18, 2012, 9:35 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Knock on wood I've yet to squash a saw . I did however back over a tool box with a D4 Cat if that counts . #Post#: 6822-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: w8ye Date: January 18, 2012, 10:25 pm --------------------------------------------------------- As far as pinched saws the above post was my worst experience. But this past summer I went to drop a 18" DBH yellow pine and despite the lean of the trunk in the direction I wanted it to fall, apparently the limb weight was wanting the tree to go across the neighbor's fence. The grandson and I detected this early on by watching closely and I started wedges. Finished the cut and couldn't get it to go over even though I considered the notch to be rather deep with a one inch hinge and the wedges were sunk. Put a 7/16" double braid Dacron rope pretty high up in it and pulled the tree down with the truck. But I will not always have that option? I may need one of those levers? #Post#: 6824-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: Al Smith Date: January 19, 2012, 6:23 am --------------------------------------------------------- The worst I ever did was hang a little Poulan about 40 feet up in a silver maple I was dissassembling . The next smaller saw I had with me was a Stihl 042 to cut it loose with .While is's not a bad saw for ground work that's one heavy SOB hanging from a belt up in a tree . #Post#: 6844-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: Chainsawrepair Date: January 19, 2012, 6:56 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Art PM me the price please. I just got to know. I cant find nothing like it here, yet. #Post#: 7417-------------------------------------------------- Re: Removing a pinched saw ( Miracl Wedge) By: Old Iron Logging Date: February 9, 2012, 6:05 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Got my saw jammed between first and second logs in a 20" spruce. Spare saw was 20 minutes away and porter was on the other cutter. Miracle wedge had me out in 20 seconds. Paid for itself today. ***************************************************** (DIR) Next Page
