I bet you could see it in the chip as soon as you started cutting the notch?
if you were going from the other direction there would have been no telling till you started into the back cut , and then wedging it over would have gotten interesting

Not to change the subject but I have a bunch of red oak saplings I want to move to different spots. Any advice on transplanting them. I am waiting until the leaves change in the fall.

both great tips i got here. Was planning to add some fertilizer and a bag of soil to each hole but not sure what fertilizer and how much. Planning to transplant in October

I have been taking down Big old Maples rough guess on the rings 1800-1840 ont he one that had a solid stump but the top was rotten the ground seems much wetter than it likely used to be
the house was built in the 1860s but the farm had already been around since around 1836 when WI became it's own territory
rotten hollow up the center on several hole in the sump was so big the kids were playing in it. kinda hard to get a decent hinge when you have a 36 inch diameter and 5 inches solid of wood on each side.
