Step 1: use a chainsaw instead.
A few years agoI started dropping a ~10" tree for my parents. They had an axe, so I said “ok, whatever, it’s good exercise”.
Thirty minutes later I was driving to a friend’s house to borrow a 12" chainsaw… Which was all he had.
That must’ve been the world’s dullest axe.
I’m already lost at step one. The diagram doesn’t really explain wtf he is measuring
Plumb lines are used to find how off center something is from straight up/down. I think this is so you can know which side the tree naturally wants to fall towards and work with that
Boy Scouts call #2 The Blood Zone
I wonder if you can fell a tree with a shirt on too?
No.

Trees don’t wear shirts, silly

Thank you, I didn’t realize how poor quality this was until I posted it
You can edit OP with this link.

Lol sure, if you’re the kind of noob who doesn’t carry a plumb bob with them.
