Did a ponderosa for an elderly couple years ago. The yard was beautiful, flowers and such everywhere. They sat on the back porch, drinking margaritas, her calling out which lovely exotic plant she wanted smashed next, while her husband wagered nickles on my aim. I destroyed that yard at her encouragement, with guiltless glee. She had a landscaper in the next day, completely revamped the property. Cool folks, fun job. I guess the old guy was allergic to just about everything that was planted.

Hey August, I hope your continuing to recover well. It didn't look like the Stihl battery saw lasted too long. It sounded a bit weak, but it would be interesting to see it with a Panther setup to compare more closely to the Husqvarna. The first tree I removed for someone was a locust. It was a job for an elderly lady from my church, when I was first started my construction/remodeling business and would take whatever work someone had. If only I knew then a fraction of what I've learned in the last year from you, and your content. Keep sharing this gift you have with us.

the saw is really strong, but has an "uncomfortable" center of gravity with the light bar, try a heavier rail, then it doesn't tend to kick-back as much. Furthermore, it should be emphasized that it is extremely dirt-resistant and therefore low-maintenance. all in all, in my opinion, the best battery top handle at the moment 
@dancutting8940

Curious about the rigging, it doesn’t get the press that it needs to. At 18:20 is that one rope to pull the two together, plus running a redirect for the strength? Might be your climbing line.
