best and easiest way to make a leaner chair (don't try this at home...) hook a line into it as high as your ladder will reach, like a good 1/2 cable, saw it from the back side only say 2/3-3/4 through, then get a good head start with the biggest 4x4 truck and the dumbest driver around, make sure to attach the other end of that cable to his truck. One of three things will happen, 1 the garbage pincher clamps will let go 2 the cable will break AND take out the rear window of said truck, 3 the tree will gloriously chair right up to where the cable is tied off and go in an indeterminate direction, missing the #### house of course.:potstir:

just encase you're wondering I've witnessed all three out comes, some times all three on the same tree, cable breaks, fixt it, cable breaks again and takes out the window, and finally a total cluster#### of branches and mayhem...

:ices_rofl: finally, I got one of the answers I was looking for.

also gonna use a real shallow humbolt to help with the snapping chair effect, oh and maybe a vertical rip cut back to the stump of say 18/24 inches :chainsaw:
 
ok from deep consideration..........3 part plan........airbase........Apache gunship or an A10 would do.......then stand back and boom.......problem solved .....you give em free target practice and ya get a pool dug out as a bonus.........how's that

by shallow humboldt you mean just a slopped kerf face? Cause gun guts are for sissy loggers and hooking that tow chain in that there tree took 3 hours out of my beer time ya know...

and a slopping back cut for good measure just so it doesn't try to jump backwards when the cable snaps?
 
Ok why not forget all the good cuts that been advised and get a pick and shovel and juss dig til they fall over ya will save em out that way
 
this is great your just waking up, I'm getting ready to wrestle my pillow for a few hours... I do like me the full fry up Irish style... white pudding only, (the black has a funky feel... kinda sticky and slimy at the same time... weird, not to mention all the blood in it) hash browns instead of beans, two eggs, brown bread, marmalade, tea and coffee, mushrooms, tomatoes, rashers, chipolatas... thems good mornings...


No wonder I'm a fat ass...
