Nice job it came out perfectly, I'm guessing you cut it like that so it didnt roll off the stump and take out the building next to it that's a smart idea. Great work
How to achieve such success? Easy: first you practice with a jigsaw on plywood, then with pencils, then a mop stick, a shovel handle. Gradually raise the level and - voila - you are a magician-tree.
It's now easier to remove the branches, but we also lost the widest part of the tree to the bottom.
