Falling pine on a property boundary line

CCC4 · October 06, 2013, 03:03:12 AM

Some head leaning timber I cut the other day while cutting along a property boundary. Fence was 12 feet from the last 2 trees and they were felled running adjacent to the fence, could see an oppurtunity to fall the timber on their sides, so I took it in order to save out the fence. Pretty decent job I thought. MS 660. Thanks for viewing!

Good Job Colt. I noticed from your vids that you cut pretty close to the ground. I took down a large older pine in my backyard that had 15 pieces of rock in the stump. Kept ruining chain hitting them. We burned the stump in a bon fire and found the rocks in the ashes. I guess it depends on your soil?

Must depend on if someone has a rock garden around the tree too. :D
I have cut many,many trees down close to the ground and I mean close. I have not found any rocks in the stumps. And I have rocks on my land.
