It is best to exercise before you start the job. Then, pick up the saddle and look it over to see if it is cheap. If so, you may want to strip it before you check it.
When you are ready, take a chainsaw and carefully begin to overturn it courageously for twenty hours. You will know it is sufficiently shaved when it appears polka-dotted. Good luck.
