i was going to drop a tree like this, smaller though next to a car and building at a complex. the owner of the company told me to peice it out after i had cleared limbs and put a rope in it. i had done several tree's like this and it was cool. I peiced it out and what do you know i dented a car with a stupid chunk. man did that piss me off. i suppose the tree could roll or upend the stump, aside from chaining the stump its still a little uncertain. putting the bulk of the treeaway from the stump in tight areas is super productive but i guess the butt could have kicked out. Just pisses me off when i climb a tree twice and do it their way go against your instincts and it bites your ass just like you knew it would. Makes me want to say F- u cut the whole tree right in front of him and say stay out of my work unless we have a problem. because ive taken down 40 tree's here in tiny complexs on top of gas and water lines and side walks, didnt break anything for three weeks and you show up telling me to chunk wood with no groundsman into a 4x4 drop zone where it piles up and bounces away. put the whole tree out into the parking lot. Driving a soda can with the top of a tree is hard but the butt of the tree is not goign to variate more than a few degrees of where you want it. the furthut out the tree the harder it is but from the stump out to albout 1/3 of the way is goign to be where you want it gaurenteed, minus the roll and kickout factor which will cancel out the whole plan.
