Tools for Cut a Trees

Tools for Cut a Trees

Helmet, my helmet has saved me from falling branches more than ones. When you start to cut, dead and dry branches from the top of the tree can get lose and fall to the ground. When you're concentrated on the saw you don't see the falling danger. And if it is a big branch it can cause serious injury.

Safety boots, Fresh cut wood are very heavy, if you get the log over your feet if will crush it. Next it will also protect your feet and toes from the chainsaw.

Ear protection, a chainsaw is very noisy you will lose your hearing if you don't wear ear protection. Most helmets have built in hearing protectors.

Gloves and eye protection. This you already have, that's good. If you use helmet most of them have a face screen that protects the face and eyes. Plus it will not get misty in bad weather like glasses."

 

The wedge is what determines what direction the tree will fall in. It compromises the integrity of the tree. The direction that the wedge is facing is where the tree will land. 

First cut in a downwards direction about halfway into the tree. Your next cut should be perpendicular to the tree, and lastly upwards. Remove pieces of the wedge as you can. If you were to cut upwards first or second, your chainsaw would likely get stuck under the weight of the tree.

Once the wedge is removed, the tree may begin to fall on its own. If it does, use your escape route to get away. If it doesn't, you can begin cutting from the opposite side. It's best to cut slightly downwards. Pretty soon the tree will fall. As it does, remove the chainsaw and use your escape route to get away from the falling tree. Keep your eyes open, this is the most fun part of the entire instructable. Feel free to yell "Timberrr!!!"
