Tonnes worth of holding wood, good codit, no targets, what a waste. If propping was not practical then your original 35% off idea would have fit the scenario portrayed.

 

But trrees are just potential firewood, as we all know.

 

Just as we bloody brilliant arborists can knowledgeably assess "defects" from decay, and the Great Pumpkin shall surely visit this October, to bring the world peace. iow, rubbish!
