My 15 year old chainsaw gave up on me, and I couldn't cut this log into proper chopping length. So, I decided to chop it. Notice the log is about my height and I am 6 feet tall.
For the first 25 chops, the axe just kept bouncing off. But Spoiler Alert, I did manage to chop it.
Do not try this at home. Instead, go buy yourself a new chainsaw, or fix your old chainsaw.
