Need advice on chainsawing a tree with my blade?

[Metals406]

My neighbors-sisters-girlfriends-cousins-daughters-boyfriend. . . Works at a place that has a tree growing out of a deck. The tree is 4' in diameter and leans heavily toward the building. It also splits into two trees 7' above the deck level.

My question is, should I wear white socks or black socks when I chainsaw it with my sloped backcut? Also, is a 12" blade good enough on my chainsaw, or should I use my 16" blade?

It was a serious question you guys. :msp_sneaky:

I have 35 years of experience cutting trees off with a blade, I don't need advice about chainsawing.

On the other hand, I have no fashion sense, and really need help with my socks. :help:

What are the other colors in your ensemble you will wear? Since it is after Memorial Day, white shoes are OK.

Only if he shaves his legs. Stockings can be annoying for hairy leg wearers.

Come on guys/gals


The man needs help and you are giving him fashion tips..

What you really need to do is Drill a hole in the tree and place a whole bunch of TNT in it and light it..
you will not have to worry about your DECK any more..

Besides it is more exciting to have a tree lean towards your house... you just never know when it will fall..

Watch out for nails in the yard tree (ask my dad )

The REAL question is. . . Should the socks be inside out? I hear the seams are more comfortable that way.

You have to be comfortable when blading with your chainsaw.

Make sure that the stripes on yer socks are coordinated with the color of the log claws on yer saw which should contrast with the color of yer blade.
