John, Pedro and Buck the Saw (P7070027.MOV, movie by Eric.)

John and Pedro, note the quantity of saw dust that Buck the Saw makes from a little 10" tree on each cut. (P7070028.MOV, movie by Eric.)

John and Pedro trying to pull a cut tree section out of the way. Since I wasn't helping them they were not successful. So I stopped taking pictures for a bit. (P7070031.MOV, movie by Eric.)

This is when John said I should stop taking pictures and help them more. (P7070032.MOV, movie by Eric.)

Pedro and John with another section of stuck tree. (P7070033.MOV, movie by Eric.)

More block and tackle work for Pedro and John. (P7070034.MOV, movie by Eric.)
