Now if it could just saw itself into smaller pieces everyone would be happy.

couple grand??????? WTF?

I recently had a tree cut down. 15m high, roughly 1m diameter (so much larger than this stick). 200 bucks, 1 hour of work.

Where the hell do those prices come from? You could also ask your friendly neighbour owning a chainsaw and a rope,- he'd probably do it for a crate of beer.

True. We both use wood stoves to heat our houses, so I’m going to go over there and help chop it up later today. We’ll both get a good start for next winter.

Because it’s so close to structure they’d have to take it down piece by piece. We’re also in a high cost of living part of the country, so that doesn’t help. It would definitely be a couple grand easy.

Holy fck! It probably is illegal to do it yourself, or you won't get insurance cash in case something goes wrong? I mean, how can anyone afford this???
