    From the viewpoint of one who highly values fuelwood: "It'll burn fine, once properly air-dried." Red oak will just need a couple years. Waste not, want not, you know.

    Looks like she should have been harvested years ago. The best thing is the light and water the saplings will now get from her being gone. Thanks for sharing.

    Red Oak is our staple, with storms and natural die out, we have unlimited firewood. The limiting factor is me.

    That definitely sucks! Where I’m at if it’s that big I tell everyone it’s hollow or full of metal. That’s why it wasn’t cut 30 years ago. I have only been surprised a time or two. Best of luck on the next one. 👍

    The saw keeps getting stuck because he tries to cut through the entire limb or trunk from the compression side. It's usually better to cut up to a third of the way through from the compression side and finish the cut from the tension side. This also prevents the wood from splitting vertically.

    I’ve also often wondered what those big white larvae turn into. They seem to be plentiful inside of a hollowed out red oak in that black rich rot-dirt.

      We call them Betsy bug larvae. Or bess beetle. A shiny black beetle about 1½ to 2 inches long.

    While I admire the skill needed to make the horizontal cuts line up properly, that was a very dangerous way to fell a tree -- no face cut and no hinge. It could have fallen unpredictably, especially given that the base was hollow.

      Lightning tends to stay toward the outside of objects because electrons repel one another. It might kill a young tree or even set it on fire, but it wouldn't hollow out the centre. This tree rotted from the inside.
