Saw about half way through then come at it from the other side if possible.
This minimizes splintering and allows easy removal of the slug.

The splintering is never a problem with me, because I always use a
sacrificial piece of wood. However, this way does allow some of the
wood to stick out, making it a lot easier to pull it out. I would
suggest leting the holesaw come to a complete stop before you try to
pry, or pull, the wood out. But, that's up to you.

I've noticed that somehow hole saws make the center piece of wood compress
in size while drilling and then when finished it expands to lodge itsself
tight in there. I've had to unscrew the nut on the shank of the holesaw
and then hammer it out more than once.

Hole saws are designed to be used until the saw fills with wood and
then discarded.
Actually, I usually use a screwdriver, through the slots in the hole
saw, to push the wood out.

Thanks. I ended up drilling into the top and wedging it out.

Some hole saws have two or more small holes in the 'back' of the
saw, that is the part to which teh shank attaches. Punches
can be inserted there and struck with a hammer to force out
the plug. Or you can put one or more screws into the plug
itself from the iopen end and pull it out with those, twisting
helps.
But often disassembly is the only thing that works.

Haven't been in a Sears lately, have you? Although I believe that they
stock it under the manufacturer's brand rather than the store brand.
How does one copyright a chalk line?

I'm guessing you misplet 'patent infringement', though if
the guy actually said 'copyright infringement' he may have
been telling stories.
