Today I'm using my Stihl MS 261 and Husqvarna 372xpw to fell two trees near the house that have been dead for a while. These two oaks have been dropping large branches during recent storms, and it's time to take them down before they fall on the house.
This was so much fun. I got to use my chainsaws, tractor, and now I have a bunch of wood to split on the wood splitter for next winter. I used my ported Husqvarna 372xpw and Stihl MS 261 c-m to cut down these two trees. I hope you like the chainsaw sound, because there is a lot of it in this episode!
