BSA Shaun Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Girth, now that's a word Now mate on a serious one, your felling notch doesn't want to be any more that 1/5 of the trunk girth and when you make the back cut MAKE SURE that you do not cut all the way through, you need about 1/10 of the trunk as a hinge. That way you have control over the direction of the fall :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobt Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 you certainly dont need a chainsaw for that. a normal bowsaw would have it down before the chainsaw was even started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
