how would i go about felling a 100 foot eucalyptus with a 41cc saw with a 16 bar?

[ROOTSXROCKS]

Cutting 40-60" trees "All day long" with a 20" bar is dumb.

I could just laugh at the site of grown ass men stooped over a 20" bar, working those big sticks up!

yeah thats bout what Id call it too.

Ya, no, a half competent timber faller will pick up on any forces that will affect the tree in any particular manner, thus compensating for said things with a trick out of his big bag of solutions.

Yes, but he's NOT!!!

I know that certain trees (ones that are brittle to begin with) once dead can start cracking and splitting inside. If you go to back cut it, it could barber chair on you and thats no good at all. I've seen guys strap the trunks before cutting them.
