    Hi all, My local electric company just came through my neighborhood
    doing some severe preventitive tree trimming. Apparently our city has
    more than average power outages from fallen tree limbs so they
    stepped up the tree cutting. I am left with some sections of a large
    branch off my wonderful elm tree. One section that is cut pretty flat
    on both ends is about 11 inches in diameter and a foot or so long. I
    don't know if that wood is suitable or not for a hammering stump. If
    it is, does anyone have any suggestions as to how to prep the stump?
    Thank you for any advice. This tree is very meaningful to us and the
    local birds and squirrels. I would love to preserve this part of it
    and use it in the creative process if possible. Thanks-Carrie Nunes
