Shortly after buying the house I found two broken chainsaws in a basket at a yard sale and combined them into one that worked. Looking for trees to
practice on, I decided that three large oaks behind the house and leaning toward it were good candidates. I tossed lines through high forks and pulled them back to cut. Two were solid but the third snapped off and fell toward
me when just past vertical, the base had rotted out except for an inch or so
of wood under the bark. It could have fallen through the roof at any moment.
