The worst thing you can hit with a saw

I cut a bullet in half once, it was buried in a tree. Oddly, not much damage to the saw.

Me too

Me too

 

Hah! That's only an air rifle pellet. Mine I think was a .303.

 

Good picture though. Shows how much damage can be done to a living tree with one of those pellets.

I was going to say yourself!

 

 

But concrete in cavities/ soft red brick in included bark - no real indication, just stops cutting.

Ive done the concrete in the cavity thing. Had a beech stump a few years ago which was hollow and had been filled right up. Was interesting getting it out to say the least.

I also had one. First thing I knew about it was when I blunt my saw 20ft. From there down it was entirely full of concrete, rubble, you name it. It wasn't a fun day. Fortunately I had good money on the job and didn't lose out too much. I remember I had really sore blisters on my thumb and palm of my hand from all the filing I had done.

I once met a guy who had to saw up a mule carcass which had fallen off a trail into the grand canyon, several weeks of 40c heat before....

Why would you not just drag it off.

I think cutting into pieces so the condors could get rid of it quick was mentioned!

I once hit a steel wedge some fool had put into the cut on the other side of the tree, cursed and ranted! then realised the fool was me!
