Awesome Tree Removel. I am wondering if a Gum Tree is like a Bass Wood Tree? Very Soft Wood and not to good to Burn. Keep safe up there Buddy. I used to do it till back in 2005 when I Fell out of a Box Wood Elder. I sustained a minor Concussion, and about 6 Ribs Brusied. Lucky I had a Helmet on as it Cracked. Now I cut Log Length Firewood for myself, and May next year sell Bundled Firewood. Time will tell. Stay Safe out there, well Hydrated. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.
