    Thank you for simplifying what is often made more complicated and convoluted then it needs to be. Your method is the most expedient for felling trees and this video is all substance and no frills or time wasting embellishments. Thank you for the straightforward education sir.

I am alone & there are things that need to be done. I thank UA-cam for all the men that are willing to make videos on How To! I fixed my own riding lawn mower because of UA-cam videos on How To!

Some of this work, especially cutting up the tree and the limbs, would tale 2-3 hours until my muscles are numb! But just scooped a Stihl MS250 Chain Saw today, can't wait to speed things up with this force multiplier.
