Local sawmill have a matador. The local estate wanted some big beech down and I mean big,that were on a bank leaning back over a road and row of houses. Their forestry guys would'nt touch them. We went in with matador, cable up 20 foot, little gob and about a 1/4 back cut, lots of black smoke,in digs the spades and over goes the tree. Unbelievable the power of that machine but still think I had some smelly stuff running down me legs at the time (I was doing the felling)
