I would get at least three quotes from reputable companies and pick the one you feel most comfortable with. The tree is valuable to you only to get it removed and as others have said, you should not worry about what they do to the tree afterwards. I had 5 trees taken down in the backyard of my...

Why is that? I usually only stop to fuel up when the saw runs out which is usually in the cut. I will "top off" or check fuel level before felling though.

I can say as a current Parts Salesperson at Atlantic Tractor, my management would not allow any discount unless you had a Pre-Pay or Farm Plan account.

I've used non-ethanol fuel ever since my Echo hand-held blower carburetor issue. Haven't had an issue even after using ~2 year old mix. I keep it stored in a metal airtight can.

I think it was $22.99. So far, it works.

Got one of these as well since the wrap handle gets in the way. First time using a chainsaw with a wrap handle.

Finally put it together. Haven't started it yet but that will most likely happen in the spring.

I have a 34-Ton Champion. I've only used it twice so far but it does the job. Got it from Home Depot. I bought it last year for ~$1800.00. Only issue is that the pin that holds the lever to operate the splitter fell out in transit. I didn't think to make sure the pin was bent to prevent it...

I have a tool or product from: Craftsman Makita Milwaukee Dewalt Ridgid Bosch Kobalt Black & Decker Skil And probably some others I don't remember. I don't have a favorite but the ones I do have haven't failed me yet.

Just got it today. Will wait until I have time to set it up and test it out.

I ordered a 500i R with a 28" light bar last week. It's an upgrade to my 10+ year old 441C. Nothing wrong with my 441C but there were a few times that I could've (and should've) used a stronger saw. I've been debating for years on what to upgrade to and the 500i is probably the best option...

I guess there's ten attachment limit.

I started a new full time job back in October so I don't know what progress has been made since then. Here are the photos of where we were at back then.

A valuable black walnut tree....

Fourteen pine trees in a residential neighborhood next to the house, camper, and fence. I'm guessing minimum of $14K if a tree service company did it.

It's a bargain if it's "easy access"....

I get the VP 94 octane premixed when available but costs are climbing. I used to get a 5-gallon can for ~$85 and now it's up to ~$122. The 4 cycle in the photo below was because no one had the premix in my area. I fill the gallon can of "Stihl MotoMix" from the 5-gallon cans for easier...

I started using strictly non-ethanol when the Echo dealer said that the carbs in my Echo stuff were gummed up from using ethanol fuel and the warranty didn't cover it. I figured Stihl probably has a similar policy so I only use non-ethanol on all my 2 strokes. Longer storage is also nice...

I got the 34 ton Champion. Used it a couple times and it handled even the knotty wood.

Not sure about best practice but I don't think there's an improper way...except maybe upside-down.
