Running Saws for Therapy
Inspired by blsnelling 372XP stock in Oak 36" at base
Brad-
I've seen in your videos the "line" you make around the tree for the back cut and got into a decent oak this past weekend and making that line worked great. This is the first time I've been videoed cutting and thought I'd share. I know some of the guys may yell at me for no hard hat -- this tree was healthy w/ little risk but I'm listening and will get a hat. I'm on my 3rd weekend in a row of many hours of saw use (lots of storm cleanup) and I'll take the advice -- more people keep asking about cutting trees for them and I really enjoy it and I'd like to get better at it / stay safe. I'm getting the chainsaw addiction I think people have mentioned on here... once snow flies I'll be sending the 262XP to Randy for rebuild & port job per your advice!
Person taking video says "hickory" but's it's oak -- one vid doing the notch, 2nd is back cut.
This is my 2010 Stock 372XP X-torq 24" Bar w/ 73LGX chain.
