Maybe we could research bots that fly around and slowly chop down trees for wood?

1. Standard bot
2. Circular saw (made from like plate and iron gear
3. Combine them
4. ??
5. Profit

Will be a good way to clear out forests because it's annoying to walk/drive trough them.

Takes too long to chop down a big forest D:

Yeah, jut use the deconstruction template to "remove" the trees. So you'll see little red "X" and your construction robots will pick the trees up. Remember to have a storage chest or a requester chest that requests wood, otherwise the robots would jus stand still when picking the trees up.

Also, there's the Treefarm mod available in the mods section of this forum.
