The apparatus of the present invention is configured to cut a selected object at a location which is remote from a user. The apparatus comprises a saw having cutter teeth configured for cutting the selected object, a connector configured to attach to a mounting point generally above the location on the selected object, and a flexible line extending from the connector to the saw for positioning the saw adjacent the location on the selected object. The apparatus may also comprise a radio transmitter positioned within reach of the user, a servomechanism operatively connected to the saw for actuating the saw, and a radio receiver positioned remote from the radio transmitter for activating the servomechanism in response to the signal. Further, the apparatus may include a pole extending from the saw to guide the saw.
