Last spring at my uncle's place, we had to clear waterlogged branches after a flood. I hear all this talk about drying chains and light passes, but that's just making things harder. A good sharp chain will plow through wet wood no problem if you keep a steady hand. I've cut dozens of soaked trees without any pinching by just going for it. All that extra caution seems to invite more issues, like the wood swelling as it dries. Why not trust your gear and get the job done fast?

@the_gray has a point about the dark, but I found that reading a physical book under a dim lamp works better for me. Last week I tried just sitting there and my mind raced through next day's cargo lists. Now I keep a boring paperback on the nightstand, something about tree identification. Puts me out in twenty minutes.

Actually, the idea that skin-on wings NEED oil is just wrong. I cook them dry in my air fryer at 400 degrees and they come out PERFECTLY crispy every time. The skin has enough fat to crisp up on its own with the hot air circulation. Adding oil can sometimes make them soggy instead of helping.
