lol, plenty of room to the left for now.
 
That's the slowest possible way to reduce a round, not to mention harder on your saw. Instead, lay them on their side and make noodles

Must respectfully disagree! been doing it for years. much easier to do when working solo. to each his own.

Yep... but if you haven't already done it, you have to lay one round on it's side and give noodling a try. It's about 10x faster than vertical ripping (a.k.a. milling), and a heck of a lot easier on your saw. There's a reason the milling folks use BIG displacement saws.

got my bar spacers thanks to a generous member here and made some mods to the bar to fit. Threw the stihl bar and chain on and kicked the piles ass. I should be done with it by this weekend at this rate

All the chips can't act as mulch, which might not be a good thing on a lawn. :)
there is no lawn right now, raising the grade up so its just all fill
