How about cut the whole tree really low?

You gotta watch for the b-chairing in that scenario. The fact you're still asking questions has me wondering if you are too stupid...err...inexperienced to perform this task. Fall the right lead to the right, left to the left. If you can't reach up high enough to comfortably cut above the union, do a bore cut on each side, set your hinge, and start cuttin toward the seem...fast.

Too stupid? GFY. maybe I like learning every trick or way of doing something there is. Or maybe i like talking to educated people about the crap I do every day.the wife listens but people in the field understand! Next time just write the second half of your post.

Stupid people dont ask lots of questions and that is why they stay stupid.

The only stupid question is the ones unanswered or not asked

Simple just be sure of the lean study it from all angles mouth it very low, backcut it and run like hell the proper way when it goes!Make sure your footpath is clear leave the saw if the tree does anything you dont want it too just get out of harms way is all!

Nope this is the first for me
ive had doubles triples quads but always low enough to take one at a time. Or high enough to not care.

Just above root flare. Nice even conventional or open face, no dutching, even hinge, perpendicular to seam. Ants or anything else that questions integrity of inside for face/ backcut, test bore it. Grade chain twice, once below crotch and again above face cut, hooked on face side and ends neat.
Gut in from face or Coos Bay.
Sharp chain, long bar and power.
Hard hat. Look up
