FEL Chainsaw

Do those ever get hung up in a tree when a branch twists? I would hate to get a boom mounted saw hung up 15' high :(

The saw can get hung up. Reversing the chain rotation generally releases it. Also it seems to make sense to cut some of the weight from the big limbs by cutting farther away from the trunk to start with. On limbs up to 5 or 6", the saw is aggressive enough to cut thru the limb prior to the branch sagging enough to cause a pinch. In my opinion these saws are mainly for farm tree rows to keep tree encroachment at a minimum.

The perfect thing for trail/roadway maintenance are those boom mounted flails or sicklebars. They can also be used around ponds or at ground level of course. Kinda pricey though.
