    Possible damage from impact of felling a large tree close to a house.

    I've dropped rounds into tires and stall mats once, way back. Pavers beneath. Tying tires together may help.

    Possible damage from impact of felling a large tree close to a house.

    Very anticlimactic. I used a lot of brush, stacked cross-wise to the lay. I picked up the crash pad with a machine afterward and stuck it in the dump truck. Lots of gravel could've contaminated the brush with raking and restacking that happens from droppinginto the pile and moving off the...
