The roots of the tree are upturned by an inch, and the trunk is already leaning by almost a meter.
Once the saw wedge is fully driven into the saw cut, the felled tree will make a creaking sound and fall to the ground.
"Xiping, will sawing a wedge work?"
Wang Jianshe and the others had no experience with this and were quite worried, fearing that something unexpected might happen if they weren't careful.
Such a thick tree, the force of it falling is enormous. If someone were to be hit and injured, they would be dead on the spot.
"It's alright, don't worry. Just give me the saw wedge."
Sheng Xiping shook his head and took all the saw wedges from Wang Jianshe's bag.
Insert the saw into the tree through several openings, then use a steel axe to strike the saw wedge and force it into the opening.
Logically, as the saw wedge is driven into the saw cut, the tree should gradually tilt and slowly make cracking and creaking sounds.
Once the saw wedges are fully driven in, the tree will slowly fall down.
Even though Sheng Xiping had driven the saw wedge in more than halfway, the tree trunk was tilted, but not as much as he had expected.
"Li Dazhuang, are you sure you sawed it all the way through? This doesn't make sense; you clearly didn't saw it all the way through."
Sheng Xiping frowned. Something was wrong. If it had really been sawed through, there should have been some movement by now.
"I... I sawed it all the way through."
When Li Dazhuang was asked this question, he was momentarily speechless. He wasn't actually sure whether he had cut all the way through.
The key issue was that he had never cut down such a thick tree before, so he was unsure of his skills. Once it looked about right, he stopped sawing.
