Target market is the 1 saw homeowner group. Handy tool for any
saw owner.

When you just take one saw to the woods, it will invariably get
pinched first thing! My son had to leave a saw in a tree one
evening until I brought another saw to cut it out the next
morning.
So be prepared. That Miracle Wedge would have come in handy for
me a few times.
I always take at least three saws and a couple wedges with me. I
have plenty to choose from.

Glad to hear you testify .In addition to rocking a chain
,installing a chain backwards ,oiling the gas tank you will
given enough time hang a saw .You might even do two in the same
tree .Anybody that hasn't either has had very little time on the
trigger or handles the truth carelessly .

How about hanging two saws then dropping the tree on one of
them. :-[

Knock on wood I've yet to squash a saw . I did however back over
a tool box with a D4 Cat if that counts .

As far as pinched saws the above post was my worst experience.
But this past summer I went to drop a 18" DBH yellow pine and
despite the lean of the trunk in the direction I wanted it to
fall, apparently the limb weight was wanting the tree to go
across the neighbor's fence. The grandson and I detected this
early on by watching closely and I started wedges. Finished the
cut and couldn't get it to go over even though I considered the
notch to be rather deep with a one inch hinge and the wedges
were sunk. Put a 7/16" double braid Dacron rope pretty high up
in it and pulled the tree down with the truck. But I will not
always have that option? I may need one of those levers?

The worst I ever did was hang a little Poulan about 40 feet up
in a silver maple I was dissassembling . The next smaller saw I
had with me was a Stihl 042 to cut it loose with .While is's not
a bad saw for ground work that's one heavy SOB hanging from a
belt up in a tree .

Got my saw jammed between first and second logs in a 20" spruce.
Spare saw was 20 minutes away and porter was on the other
cutter. Miracle wedge had me out in 20 seconds. Paid for itself
today.
