It Begins! Let's get out the Stihl!
What happens here
The creator demonstrates felling a Virginia Pine tree using a Stihl MS 500i chainsaw, emphasizing the precision required to control its fall towards the field. After the tree is down, he meticulously limbs the tree, removing all branches. He then proceeds to buck the log into manageable sections suitable for milling, creating several 8-foot sections, ensuring to make clean, straight cuts.
Goal: Safely fell trees and process them into manageable log sections.
