[QUOTE="buckwheat, post: 588368, member: 1947"] What your friend might be talking about is that it is possibly burned out in the middle. Years ago I ran across a 40" fallen oak. As I was bucking the trunk I noticed that I hit a hollow spot and the chain started pulling out carbon. Once I got through I found that the center 10" were completely burned out. I also found that the chain dulled very fast, as if I were cutting into dirt. I had never run across this before, and actually posed the question on this board. Someone chimed in and told me that it was most likely due to a lightening strike. Given that it was easily the tallest tree within the stand that I was working, it made perfect sense. [/QUOTE]
