Ya , good idea...Stand directly under a limb your cutting off with a wire
saw on a rope...Is your life insurance paid up to date ?? If not do so for
your family....

Two people standing far apart would work well with a saw of that sort.

With a long enough rope, one can stand as far away from the tree as the
rope allows. You don't have to stand directly under a flagpole to raise
or lower the flag with a long enough halyard.


"You don't have to stand directly under a flagpole to raise or

True...but why wouldn't you?


Er... it was an example of why one wouldn't have to stand directly
under a tree to cut a limb above.
