Tapered Hinge is very strong strategy in tree or on ground.
>>Can use as side ballast on 'off-side' than sideLean that starts at first motion
>>Also can use on 'more 'horizontal slides' in tree w/rope
Even so powerful ballast can do crane lift from horizontal to vertical with Tapered Hinge against sideLean etc. to allow crane not to fight that side load thru range until tearoff at (near) vertical (last direction to fell something is up!)
.
The re-apportioning to leveraged positioning of increased side pull in hinge to offset side pull in head is very proper mechanix.

1man chainsaw sold in 50's, Dent and Beraneck luckily first on scene and wrote definitive texts to hand down. Dent describes tapered shape as does Beraneck. Dent does go further with Dutch/stepDutch and swingDutch. Showing powers of, which MOSTLY to me shows are powerful mechanix, and why to even more purposefully plot to NOT invoke, except where need a dot (or blob) of that spice (after 10+ yrs hard at it..)
.
Bypass along fibers from upper slant cut, is just a close ACROSS fibers, but on the FLEX axis
>>can force hinge stronger w/o the 'forward backstop' that gets engaged on close to give even more support than when hinge 'birthed'.
Analogous to forcing strip or tapered hinges stronger by added FORWARD force of rope or wedge, that is then relieved after hinge birthed stronger, becomes like added support of VERTICAL close.
The front horizontal cut , as a front backstop , presses across vertical fibers in normal use anyway, vertical bypass just doesn't let do as strongly as start to handicap situation to needed more hinge backfield (most leveraged positions) to make up for the lost support, that is then added back in later..
.
HORIZONTAL close of Dutchman is totally different, it is a mechanical stop command, not re-flex again. for the close is up the fiber bundle strength columns, (not across) as to hold temple roof, not the Samson angle across . Horizontal close full face is full stop command at front, if can go forward but rear of tree must, get split decision of BC. Step Dutchman offers 1 side of relief, that full face doesn't. Step Dutchman is to specialize the close on 1 side w/compression, just as Tapered Hinge specializes to 1 side with tension. Both impose radial arc across towards off-side , even more powerful as used together. For each is actually a pivot of the other and this compounding VERY powerful, especially w/o stabilizing patch of hinge on lean side. Can get swing w/o step if remove stabilizing patch of hinge on lean side, but not as powerfully as w/Dutchman in the mix.
.
Mostly show Dutch and 'MIA Patch' strategies to show the power, and to know NOT to especially accidentally invoke their forces. Tapered Hinge uses greater sideLean to pull stronger with same hinge (as strip hinge will also try to do, stretching out the harder stretched fibers on the off-side. Dutchmans , also close harder with harder sideLean to invoke the forces, BUT also use the speed of the sudden slap of faces. E=MCsquared (Mass x Speed squared), means the speed is much more potent change input, therefore output. Tapered Hinge is ballast until tearoff but not speed dependent for output, Dutch comes later after speed builds from Zer0. Dutchman can bind to 'overload constitution of tree as a container of forces' to crack etc. or even BC. Tapered much more plottable and friendly, Dutchman much more volatile/risky/deadly, especially in these MASSIVE machine leverages x MASSIVE weights. A Dutchman carries with it, the 'Impact of Change', Tapered was there all the time. Tapered capitalizes on the Natural fiber tension patterns tree uses in daily life, while minimizing hinge strength towards target/as fortifies against side lean, tree doesn't Naturally Dutch, it is a contrivance of ours.
