I have a large maple with a 3/8" steel cable that once went around the trunk. the tree is down and I'm looking to see how others have dealt with this situation in the past. I have large Bars and good chain and want to keep them out of the cable. the area around the cable would be nice to cut into slabs if I can get the cable off. was thinking of trying to burn the wood off the cable with a large oxy-acetylene torch. Does anybody have any other suggestions for dealing with this? thank you-Joe PS-cable is marked by yellow paint next to my left arm, secured to itself with 2 cable bolts.
