Because of the height of the header log being difficult to reach, we set up a single-level scaffold tower... |

...which proved to work out perfectly as Jeff could make the kerf cuts without any awkward straining or overhead cutting. |
Once the header log was rough-leveled with the chainsaw (staying away from the pin locations), Jeff chiseled out the areas around the pins to expose them. |
|
Removing just enough wood around the pins so they could be ground down. |
Using an angle grinder on the pins. |

Later in the evening, Jillena had a little fire going with all the small wood debris gathered from the ground below that got knocked out of the window opening. |
