Missed steak stake removal
I recall big steel lever bars, blocks for lever points, 200lb boys hanging off the bars, at each end, lifting evenly, low humidity,.....then saws, drills and even threatened them with fire at one point.
Someone mentioned a heat gun pointed in the hole to suck some of the water out of the wood but that takes time. We got our replacement ash out of Windsor Plywood who also provided birch for some glue lam bows.
They enjoy being lifted straight out of the hole now but it's still a 2 man pull.
