So as it was 8am of Christmas Day, I decided to fell a tree and this is how it looks:
Had issue with a chainsaw, so had to walk back up the hill to garage and try to find tools to fix the issue, then I continued to cut that large pine to rounds, so that it is easier to carry uphill to firewood processing area.
You might think that when felling and cutting a tree with a chainsaw it is not so heavy job, but it felt quite hard work for me, walking alone in snowy forest is lot more than walking stairs for example, chainsaw is close to 15 pounds then and it is constantly trying to bite your arm or leg so it is bit of wrestling with the thing :lol3:
e: First 30 minutes I spent sharpening the chain and refilling fuel + oil tank, still chain was not the best, but I got very bored doing that, doing it really well would take at least 45 minutes and my patience is not enough for such usually. I have sharpening machine, but it does not make chain really a sharp, I'm getting better results with filing by hand, however it is quite slow to do after cutting nails with a chainsaw...
