Too late now for it but the occasion would make a great reason for finding a
reasonably priced broad axe.
Sitting on the porch with that and a treadle stone while wearing appropriate
apparel would be worthy of a Galoot ovation. Would a hood be too much?

I, for one, certainly didn't sit on my porch Halloween sharpening a Disston 48"
Great American crosscut while giving out candy? Certainly not! That would scare
the children, and parents.
