There are plenty of videos with trees crushing perfectly good trucks, decks, houses, porches, etc.I was waiting for the tree to fall on his trailer. It's not fool proof as it still requires human hands.
I'm definitely afraid of Widowmakers.
On a windless day anchor a rope high up before any cuts are made. The leverage you get does wonders for trees that want to misbehave.We have some trees along the fence line that need to be cut down. I'll talk to my neighbor about the tongue and groove system. We're trying not to destroy his fence.
