Tree machine



That's a shocking machine. The tree is cut down in 2 seconds, then bucked (cut into lengths) with all branches knocked off in about 20 seconds more. A tremendous saving of labor hours compared to, say, a couple of human loggers doing the job with a crosscut saw.

It makes the resulting lumber much less expensive for your house or any other use.

What an example of the difference technology makes. If you dream of becoming a logger, however, there are fewer logging jobs today:
