  • @MattGlynn
    @MattGlynnАй бұрын

    The trees on the site have regular surveys. On this beech there was a large bracket at the bottom of the tree identified. The tree could indeed have potentially stood for a number of years but with its size and location I believe it was decided to remove the tree sooner rather than later by the school.

    Hi Matt I have some really big conifers to cut down they are roughly 20 to 25 inch branches and the stump is roughly that size what Stihl chainsaw would you recommend I am looking at a good decent chainsaw like the Stihl ms 500 I c- m and the Stihl ms 661 c- m chainsaws what would you recommend tho

  • @MattGlynn
    @MattGlynnАй бұрын

    Yeah sounds good. The 500i would be the most versatile you can rock a 32/34" bar if its softwood. Then down to a 20" really. The 661 is great for big stuff but thats it really. The husky equivalent are good saws at the moment too.
