Stihl MS661 Chainsaw Cutting DANGEROUS TREES for SHOP PROJECT !

What happens here

Several trees are identified for removal because they are too close to where the mega shop will be built. The presenter points out a red oak, a willow oak, a maple (which grew from a stump, resulting in multiple trunks), wild cherry trees, and two large persimmon trees. He explains that these trees pose a significant danger to the building, as they could fall during storms, and their leaves would clog gutters, leading to water damage. The trees are also on rocky terrain, making final grading difficult without removing them. He expresses personal reluctance to cut down the persimmon trees, noting their value, but confirms it's necessary.

Goal: The presenter identifies specific trees that must be removed due to their proximity to the future building, citing risks of falling, water damage from leaves, and the need for a level grade.

What they say

Hide

the building is 112 feet long by 50 feet deep so this is the 50 foot mark right here in order to put this building up there are a lot of trees that are really close that pose a huge danger to this building not only from the leaves that would get in the gutters and we'll probably put gutter guards on but trees that will blow over and fall over and damage the building so i've got to take out several of these trees this stuff is great for firewood it's also good to put on our wood mizer sawmill and the sawmill shed will be right there okay so awesome awesome stuff we'll be harvesting a log out of this tree it's a red oak they'll probably be all firewood out of that and that is a willow oak there's a couple trees in here that really breaks my heart to cut them guys it really breaks my heart and i'll take you over and show you those this is a maple that is stunt growth in other words all these sprouts these sprigs grew out from a stump i've got to drop every single one of these okay all of them have to hit the ground what do you see on the ground right here rocks tons of rocks so we can't get back into the woods right here we don't want to get back into here because if we do we're going to run into rocks and that is going to make the land very very difficult to do the final grade on this is the final grade area it's just about perfectly flat i've been working at this for a very long time the trees that i hate to cut i saved these trees i didn't cut these trees when we cut the timber on the farm this is a wild cherry tree i really really hate to cut this tree this is not big enough really to go on the sawmill it's just kind of a waste that's just it and the last but not least trees that i don't want to cut it just totally breaks my heart are these two guys right here these are the biggest persimmon trees that we have on the farm and i got to cut them and it breaks my heart to do it but we've got to get some trees on the ground we've got to get this mess cleaned up and our grading contractor will be here very shortly now you might wonder like ah josh why are you getting a grading contractor in here when you've got a skid loader that you can do the work i will be doing most of the work however he's the expert with the laser he's going to help me pick this up and move it right over there so it will still be a tractor shed but it's not going to be right here because the the building's actually going to be on it so there's a flag right behind the skid loader there's…
