Your grandma is awesome if she’s still lumberjacking around
She lives in a rowhouse with a tiny yard without a single tree on it. Maybe she need it for something else - or someone.
The plot thickens, do keep us apprised of developments. The polished surface should make it easier to remove contaminants.

Do you live in the American Frontier of 1840? Gonna need to build that cabin fast if you plan on making it through winter.
If all you have is a hatchet, I’d imagine a more waddle-and-daub situation rather than a cabin. For a proper cabin, you really need an axe with weight behind it, a hammer, wedges, and hopefully a tree saw (and then adz, draw knife (or similar) and so on for finish work). An ax, depending upon the type and health of a tree, is kinda a terrible way to take it down on its own.
And if for some reason, in your frontier scenario, you have plywood and bracing material, you could go with a rammed earth structure!
I just learned about rammed earth and got a few books about it, it’s so fucking cool. I want to build a house with it now, so my great great great great great grandkids can inherit it
My grandpa once brought home a workbench grinder. Anything in the garage with a blade for sharpened. Even did the lawnmower blade
It’s actually really important to keep your lawnmower blades sharp. Makes the whole process much easier, and the engine won’t have to work as hard.
Just make sure they’re balanced before putting them back on!
You should polish the entire head, it’d look sweet.
My grandma got mighty upset when I tried to polish her whole head.
There’s a dirty joke there somewhere…
Just the tip
