One concern would be to ensure it is nail-free (or at least you are
aware of the location of any nails) when you cut it.
Not knowing exactly where it came from and where it's going to be used/
re-used, I guess the question would be: Do *you* have any doubts about
whether or not it should be used for the purpose you have in mind?
