Hello everyone.
My dad asked me to come and help him cut 2 trees today so i loaded up the saws and took off early this morning. Was a little surprised when i seen the trees and thought this may be a little out of our league. The maple was 40" across bottom and i only have 18" bar and the oak was 46" across the bottom. We cut around as much as we could then drove wedges in to break the last couple of inchs off. I used a tank of gas every three cuts but was ready for a break by then anyway. So after 7 tanks this is what we had by 1 pm when it hit 90 degrees and we decided to stop for the day.
After today i see that the big wood is a lot more work but still enjoyed spending the day working and cutting with my dad.
