What happens when the roots undermining the foundation start to rot and collapse? Be interesting to know how they plan to deal with that.
If the trees gotta come down, then they gotta come down, but what's with the two man chainsaw operation from the high lift?

Seems like one guy cuts while the other holds the kerf open. When they get all the way through the round, the bar sticks out in the direction that they want to push off the round. One hold the saw as the round is tipped, tilting the saw. When the round starts to fall from one pushing it, the other guy has the saw to prevent it from falling.

Isnt that what they make saw lanyards for? You trying to come up with a plausible explanation makes it seem even more ridiculous than it began with.
Wouldnt a guy working on spurs need a guy on his shoulders to hold the saw and push stuff too then?

I'm just giving my interpretation of what I'm seeing, not suggestions on how it should be done.
I don't use a saw lanyard to drop my saw onto every cut. I use it as insurance that if I drop the saw, that it will not take the deep 6. Othertimes, with a top handle, I can drop the saw, catch the lanyard, and lower it down to full extension (maybe 15-20 times in climbing most every work day for 2.5 years). Generally, I drop the top handle saw from shoulder height, catching the large ring next to the saw to hook to my saddle before continuing to deal with the brush, if need two hands to maneuver the brush or wood.
What other explanation is there for why there seems to be a two man saw show?
