Goes through the chipper better but needs more than 48 hours for best results. The trouble is the risk of the police turning up before you have chipped and fed to the pigs. Sticking to 48 hours keeps you within the realms of "we don't consider a person missing until 48 hours after last seen" attitude.

So I am told ?

Messy job though. Me and an old mate who had a small holding bought 4 pigs and  after 18 months ready for the chop. Cut a long story short and my mate had a 5 years daughter so when she was in school the slaughter man came and done the pork chops on them. When the little un came home from school she said daddy where is fat Boy (pig) Alan opened the fridge and got his head out, Never guess what she said and i was on the floor in stitches. Poor fat boy gone to heaven dad ?

Yup, 48 hrs in a freezer and the chipper chips better, far less blood so less evidence. Just seen the film The Irishman, obviously didn't use a freezer, not as effective!

You chainsaw em up first then if so which saw can you recommend ??

I’m new to this site, and apologize if I’m in the wrong forum for this question, but need some guidance. I live in central TX USA. Lightning struck a good sized oak next to our house. It provides much needed shade in the summer, and I hate to cut it all the way down.  The strike blew about 20 foot of bark off of one side of the tree, took a big hit about 2/3 the way up the trunk and splintered it pretty good. Is there anyway to salvage the tree cutting the trunk below the crack and maybe letting it grow back? Thanks for the time.
