What happens here
Utilize electric chainsaws to cut the lumber according to the previously marked lines. First, cut off the checked ends to square the boards. Then, cut the longer boards into 8-foot and 4-foot sections. The video demonstrates using both a Worx 14" electric chainsaw and a Stihl MSA 140 C electric chainsaw for these cuts. For safety and convenience, the builder uses the forks of a tractor as a workbench, but sawhorses or a stable elevated surface would also work.
Goal: Produce 8-foot and 4-foot lumber sections for the raised beds
