I fell for that one
use ax as plumb line
Lol sure, if you're the kind of noob who doesn't carry a plumb bob with them.
I wonder if you can fell a tree with a shirt on too?
Trees don't wear shirts, silly
No.
Only a plaid shirt.
Well, once you take yours off, naturally you hang it on the tree. Problem solved!
Step 1: use a chainsaw instead.
A few years agoI started dropping a ~10" tree for my parents. They had an axe, so I said "ok, whatever, it's good exercise".
Thirty minutes later I was driving to a friend's house to borrow a 12" chainsaw... Which was all he had.
That must've been the world's dullest axe.

You local troop needs to eat more fibre :(
I'm already lost at step one. The diagram doesn't really explain wtf he is measuring
Plumb lines are used to find how off center something is from straight up/down. I think this is so you can know which side the tree naturally wants to fall towards and work with that
