I think you'd have a pretty good chance of that tree coming down even putting a face cut in. Pretty high likelyhood of pinching a bar on the face as well.
I'd be worried about it failing at that crack about 10-12 ft up. Not so much at the backcut (if boring and then cutting out), especially after setting the hinge forward of that crack like sillogger was saying.
Too hard to tell from pictures really.
>>Take home message is really what the original poster said anyways. "I'm in over my head and I'm not going near that one!"<<<
Problem solved :greenchainsaw:
I passed it tonght and the 80mph winds have sorted that sucker out and its now on the ground
Even better it went in a safe direction and didnt take any other trees with it, But theres a 15' stunp to come down yep it broke off at the top crack abd took a chunk of the centre down to the bottom.
Pics to follow on monday if anyone cares.

Push it over the direction you want with an Excavator it has the reach and power and saftey to do this right ive used one sevral times for trouble trees .
dont worry bout the grass just walk it out on some old tires thrown out in front of it .

Excellent, Glad it's down safely.
What kind of tree is/was that?
Our new firewood processor only takes 14" wide so looks like a lot of handwork[\QUOTE]
