Stihl MS661 Chainsaw Cutting DANGEROUS TREES for SHOP PROJECT !

What happens here

After the oak tree has fallen and initial limbing is complete, the presenter continues to cut all remaining branches off the main trunk. He then proceeds to cut the main trunk into sections (bucking), specifying that the larger portions will be sent to the sawmill for lumber, while smaller, less valuable pieces will be processed into firewood. He indicates that a metal detector will be used on logs intended for the sawmill to check for nails from nearby old structures.

Goal: The fallen oak tree is further processed by cutting off all remaining branches and then bucking the main trunk into manageable sections suitable for either firewood or the sawmill.

[Music] guys you might wonder why in the world a stoney ridge farmer cutting these big beautiful trees well what you really need to know is that these trees have to go they could blow over on my new building and destroy my investment and also leaves are just the enemy they're just the enemy of any building water damage is a huge factor when you get leaves in the gutter so it's just a matter of being able to take care of this brand new building appropriately all right that's 10 minutes that's one tree down this tree right here that will be firewood that will go on the sawmill being that these trees are really close to the uh buildings and to the woods right here and also to the old tobacco barn over there they may have nails in them so i'll go over them with a metal detector that's one tree pretty much done i just scoop up the brush and we'll get that in a future video now we gotta drop these two critters this one phil no problem absolutely perfect so we'll get those
