Hi! I am Drew Finn here for Expert Village.com. We are going to discuss how to cut down a
tree safely today. This video is brought to you by Black Dog Video. You can visit it on
blackdogvideo.biz. Perpendicular to this line right along here, is where it wants to fall.
So if you took a T square and put it perpendicular to that, that’s where it should fall. Now
a big factor in that obviously is where the tree initially wants to fall which is a little
bit this way. We have got the cable going this way to counter it back and when we cut
through the back, we have got to cut through evenly on both sides. We cut through one side
first. It is going to tend to fall away from the side you cut through first. So our next
step is going to be cutting down at an angle here to actually make the felling cut.
