i have an oddly shaped log. from its side, it shaped like an egg. its hollow on the inside. girth is maybe 8-9 inches. i want to cut it twice, makeing 3 seperate sections. … so, not lengthwize, but width?wize.

i guess im going to be using a chainsaw… ive never used one before. do i need to secure the wood like i would with something i’d cut with a handsaw? or can i just set it on the ground, levened on bricks, and just cut it… i dont think i should use a person to hold the log down.. so what do i do?
