[QUOTE="woodchuck357, post: 4290778, member: 89993"] I can't believe someone advised you to make a top cut further away from the trunk than the under-cut. If you were hanging in the tree above the limb and you knew when to quit cutting so the saw would be out of the cut when the snap happens AND your saw is on a break-a-way lanyard THEN go ahead and make the cut that way. I would have cut a foot or so further out the limb, but looks like it cleaned up OK. [/QUOTE]
