Is that a 'eastern conventional face cut'  ???

Would be laughed at making such a 'non-control' cut here and wasting wood.

Stephen I am glad you saw that.  We just about had to give Buzz blood pressure medicane he was so pissed. 

They had a CROWD of people standing all around that pole and the guy was bragging about what great control he had and even claimed after his back cut that the pole would stand there for days. 

I am sure Buzz will share his verbal words of concern over this one!
