    TEXT VERSION OF TITLE SLIDE:

    Title: Making the Cuts
    Type: Text and Image Slide
    Content:

    1. Top Cut
    2. Bottom or Undercut
    3. Back Cut

    The notch created by the top and bottom cuts in the picture above is called an "Open-face Notch." You can compare this notch with the Humbolt and Conventional Notches. Special techniques are used for difficult trees.

    [Image 1 - Top Cut. A tree marked with a red cut line angled downward 70 degrees]

    [Image 2 - Bottom or Undercut. A tree marked with a red cut line angled upward to meet the end of the top cut making a notched corner]

    [Image 3 - Back Cut. A tree marked with a horizontal red cut line toward the notched corner (made by the top and bottom cuts) creating a "hinge" (the uncut remaining tree between the notched corner and back cut)]
