I'd be _real_ nervious about the saw throwing a spark & burning the barn down. In the late '70s I fed out loose hay that was 5' deep & covered 1/3 of the hay mow - about 40x30'. Found a newspaper in it that said 1953. We had packed straw bales on top of it for 2 decades, so it should have been packed. Worked fine getting it out with a pitchfork, stab into the top, & get a bunch out. So, how/why is your stuff intertwined? Was it loose hay or baled & the twine is rotted off? Long stems or short? Did it get wet - THAT could be a problem? Is it deep? Is just the top couple inches packed down from age, below it should be good yet if it stayed dry? I'm just trying to understand the problem, as I've never seen a problem with hay intertwining while stacked, or a pile of hay that a pitchfork couldn't solve..... --->Paul
