Cutting a tree down

[raggie33]

I understand the process but a course its confusing as to how much control the wedge cut has in the directionof the fall. Ps im useing a cheap china chainsaw but has 20 inch blade and like 63 c engine so far its first start from brand new in box was easy but manuts loud lol

A wedge cut helps, but depending on how the tree is leaning can throw that completely out. Stand back and see which way it looks like it wants to go.

Thats what i was thinking i used a level to see tree lean but its hard to see what side is the side with heavier branches

If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.
