Default Cutting 8x8 PT Railroad Ties

In article ,
says...
I have six pieces of pressure treated 8"x8" railroad ties (8' long) that I
need to cut into short, 8"-10" long sections. What is the best way to go
about it? I can't use my compound miter saw with such a large cross
section, and I am not sure I can get a clean cut with a circular saw (not
with my skill level). Any suggestions?

Thanks,

MC


Even a small-ish chainsaw will do that without a problem. Hint: mark out top,
front and back to get a nice square cut with a chainsaw.
