A wire saw could be used to cut it into managable sections, however I do like the above suggestion of selling little cubes of it. At ten bucks a pop you could make some serious bank.

In sections — go in as far as possible each time with a chainsaw. Use the lumber to erect a building in memory of the tree.

“BTW, how do you cut and split a 17 foot diameter tree?”

36” chain saw, wedges and a sledge. 3 men 10 hours. Easy.
Cut a 6’ path right through it. Easier if its dead and dry.
