Could I cut up a tree trunk if I cut it in thin "slices"?

it is a chain saw, it will do the same as any other chain saw of it's size. So yes it will . I cut a tree down, and cut it up into manageable pieces.

You can cut up a tree trunk in thin or thick slices. The only limitation is the thickness of the trunk and if larger than 17" you have to cut from opposite sides.

Perhaps. You would have to use some kind of saw to do so. But it's not too thick to cut.

No it is meant to cut wood. I would try a hacksaw with a metal cutting blade.

You could very lightly cut but I still wouldn't recommend it. If you want a nice lightweight cutting board, I highly recommend this: MSR Alpine Deluxe Cutting Board

You could cut it down to size. It is made of very heavy rubber and it is about an inch thick, so it will take a little effort to cut. I would recommend you use a heavy duty utility knife with a sharp / new blade in it for a clean cut. This way will most likely still take several passes trying to cut through it because of the thickness. I'm sure you could use other tools to cut it as well.

Yes, you could, just have to be really careful, as the sheets are very thin and yes, you can cut it with scissors as any piece of paper

I said no and my husband said yes. He also stated that it depended on the strength of the branch and you could use the chains etc that come with it. I wouldn't use the chains as they would eat into the bark of the branch and eventually harm it. It is your swing and your tree so you will decide anyway. You got two versions with us.

Frank, I suppose you could, but you would have less control of your pruner to cut any branche's or limb's so high up. If your saw blade get's stuck, how do you remove it ...!? I say three (3) pole's is the limit to avoid trouble...

Yes, you could. It's thick enough. The only thing is you would need to use an exacto knife or other blade to get a a good cut, since scissors don't work well (it will crumble on the ends.)

You could but it really isn't ideal. I imagine you'd burn through your blades pretty quick unless you were super careful to make sure they don't torque up against the wood and snap. I might suggest one of the other blades designed to cut wood.

I have used it for trimming branches, it worked well, as long as the branches aren't bigger than the blade

Yes, you could cut it into separate pieces. I actually bought the Easy Gardener 40020 Plant Blanket, 10 x 20-Ft and cut it in half to wrap my spiral pine trees.

If you can cut it with the dull back of a knife, then yes. Because these cutters are as dull. But most likely the shreds will just stick back together.

It can do a small branch, say 3/4 of an inch up to 3 or 4 inches in diameter. I have cut 5 in trunks with it, but you are there awhile. It might cut a bigger one. But you would be using up your blade; when a bigger saw would be better for the job. I like to save this one for all my smaller branches so it stays sharp longer. I don't have anyway at home to sharpen the offset razor teeth on this saw. Hope this is helpful.

It would depend on what your cutting. Light brush and small branches would be fine. I made wood handles for them and wrapped them in para cord. They are very sharp and you need to know how to sharpen them.

It should be able to handle it just fine. I cut down a tree that had a trunk that was at least 8 inches. Just make sure the chain is well-oiled and snug. The chain on mine came off once, but I was able to get it back on. I think it has a tendency to do this when it is new, so you may have to do some adjusting for a while.

I don't think so, did try to get a small tree trunk flush to the ground and ended up bending the blade. Was too bulky for me to handle at that angle. Others may have better info..
