Can someone tell me how to get a widomaker i cut down
its about 14 inches in diameter at the bottom i dont know if that helps or not
 
Do you mean it is hung up in another tree? Widowmaker makes me think there is a limb hanging out up high but what you are saying sounds like it is a hang-up. If it is a limb that is hanging in a dangerous spot you can often set a throwline and a pull rope around it and then pull it out from a safe spot. If it is a tree hung in anither then it gets trickier and more dangerous if you have not done it before.
 
If you've never done it before find you someone who has expierence in dealing with one. If it's a hang up find someone with a tractor and chain that can pull it out if it's not too big.
