Wedges
By: Chainsawrepair Date: January 21, 2015, 2:59 pm

So what is some good stackable wedges? School me.
I only have a small stihl one, large generic wedge and a old
steel one that dont get used. Figure I might want to update
with my date with some big poplars this spring. Just in case.

Madsens has some that are rifled made for stacking. K&H do
pretty good and are my favorite ones followed by the red heads
and madsens brand.

Yeah those are the K&H. The black bear ones are the ones made to
stack.

The black bear rifled wedges are pretty nice I have two of them
for just that stacking them to get more lift. I have used them a
bunch and really like them. I also got a double taper double
lift wedge but have not used it much to say weather I really
like it or not. I would have to say you are going to get more
lift from the black bears then the double taper. I would also
like to say I am a big fan of the hard head wedge. I know that's
not what you asked for but if you are updating i think you would
be happy with them they sure can take a pounding.

and Husqvarna wedges
I have some steel ones too.

I like the cheaper ones in case they somehow get left out in the
woods and not found. A dozen of Madsens house brand were $36 a
while back. Some the of the longer K&H are double taper for
lift. If those poplars are 30" or bigger you can get 12" wedges
that will lift a lot at the end. The shorter K&H are nice as
they have more lift than the Madsens and redheads.

The h
Hard Head (steel head insert) are nice if you need to persuade a
stubborn tree.
