swampDonkey,
Find a pine tree that has been snow damaged, top broken ,snaped in half and so forth. Last years pines are best. Then go to what is left of the stump, it may or may not be rotten, Nor dose it need to be.
Fatwood is caused by the sap trying to go up the tree with no place to go.
Now take an axe and work on that stump.
The rotten part that broke off will have none.
