I'd stop, while you still have both legs.
I'd suggest an axe but I'll share this axes are dangerous story just in case.
One of my lot was chopping logs with an axe, was told mind (their) head swinging that axe about like that. Mockingly replies "what like this, forgets own strength or the weight of the axe or more likely was too busy making faces and being a smart alec. Smacked self with back of axe in the middle of his forehead. Then everybody laughed while they lay stunned. One of the others near crushed their foot and leg with a log attached to the same axe.
