Well I've been busy. I love spring. Working on the water lines to the trees, tree trimming and cutting.
I started on a tree a couple of days ago and totally botched it. I did my cuts in the reverse order. I did my backcut first then started on the notch and prompley jammed the chain. Took the motor off and put it in the shed.
Yesterday I went to town and got a new chain for the electric saw. This morning I checked my mail. Yea I got a response from Mr. Steve Nix About.com: Forestry http://forestry.about.com who is a real tree expert.
He needed a picture to see what was going on.. So I took the photos. Looked at the tree. Realized I just needed to start all over about a foot higher. So I put the new chain on the saw.
In less than 5 minutes the tree was right where I wanted it. I spent the last several hours delimbing it.
No papercrete today. The downed tree is in my drive thru path.
