A mere bowsaw! I felt slightly embarrassed as the builder of the group who turned up in his van and didn't have a saw on board 😳

Whenever someone mentions cutting down their own Christmas tree I always think of that scene from The National Lampoon Christmas Vacation.

Was felling with my Stihl 025 today. Not christmas trees though. Did drop a big chestnut that was on a good lean. Made a right old pop.

Definite man points for doing it yourself, but you loss 1 point for not using a stupidly over the top tool to do the job. Is it not a wee bit early to be putting up Christmas trees? Or is that just me?

I offered to take the battery powered circular out but it was met with a round of boos! Yes it's early, I said the same to the mrs and kids but that was also met with a round of boos!

While doing a chainsaw refresher course last Christmas people were walking around finding the best trees to take home including the instructor 🙂
