    An interesting video documentary. "Roughing it"

    I do quite a few odd jobs from fixing things to building new stuff. Built some utv parts, log bunks on a flat deck, aluminum cr125 cylinder repair... Not real busy with it but enough to make some cash on the side.

    Scary thing

    What he said! Use this alot when cutting trees off of powerlines, most of the time uproots from wind/water. Notching it and steering the butt where you want it can be a big help sometimes.
