The second fat field maple - part 5

Now we found that the original cut was about 10 to 15 centimeters too high. Now is the time to correct this. It cannot really be seen from the picutes, so you have to believe me.

1) Great discussion
2) Monika does the first cut. But it was too hard for her after a while. The saw was not sharp enough and these maples have extremely tough wood.
3) Here you can see how hard this was
4) to 6) One has to be careful not to destroy the tree now.
