I don't see why not.
Record all 20 (+/-) attempts, and select the one most successful for the final edit.
In documentary film-making (with real film), a "shooting ratio" of 12:1 is common. Similar for theatrical movies. The watchword in Hollywood is "Film is the cheapest thing we've got."
As far as loony exercises are concerned, there's a mob in the States conducting an annual pumpkin-chucking contest, using trebuchets, air cannons and such. One team even grows their own pumpkins for best fit in the barrel of their air cannon.

I cannot see how it is possible:no:
To get enough spin and velocity would be impossible. I would think it would just get stuck in the timber and if by chance of a miracle it certainly would not be such a clean cut.
Having said that it is a great video:2tsup::2tsup:
Looks simple enough.
Cut the wood just about all the way through,
hide the saw cut with the square, stand back
and throw the blade until it finally hits the wood.
Piece of wood drops to the ground with the
slightest hit from the blade.

Mate .... its America, they can do ANYTHING :p :cool:
One place I worked at in the US had for a while an annual water melon chucking competition with a difference.Quote:
