O.k. so forgive me , I am kind of new to this.
I have been cutting firewood for the last 3 years now. I have taken down a whole bunch of 20-30 ft trees on my property, and maybe 5 or 6 big trees, probably 45-60 ft.
So far, I have fallen every one right where I planned, and managed not to hurt my self, or anyone else. Now, I have 3 big ones to take down, that have the potential to end up in my living room if I am not careful
Can you ABSOLUTELY control which way a tree will fall by the cut you make? The next one I am taking down is already leaning in the direction I want it to fall, but the two others are a little bit iffy.
I am thinking of climbing up and roping off to my dump truck and have someone in the truck to help give a little tug just to be safe. .
I just dont want to end up one of those guys who ends up on America's funniest video's . And this would be hard to explain to my insurance guy.
