    That's freaking awesome! Beautiful stacks and what are those purple foliage trees? You've almost got a firewood maze going there...FHC members would pay admittance to walk through and gaze upon all those splits I'm betting---you just need a few more rows and I see a masterpiece...Nice work sir- :yes:Like to have info on the copter/cam/cost also if you would please

    I thought plum was one of them-used to have two beautiful ones at my late mom's next door, Thundercloud I believe they were called-grew to 18-20 dbh and just died from something-they were gorgeous...now I have 2 Qwanzan and 2 Yoshina cherries that have died and have to be taken down this winter, due to standing in flood water best I can figure-sucks but guess they will burn ok

    I have a drone and some aerial videos of the woodshed in my yard, but my woodshed is embarrassingly mostly empty. :picard:
    I'll link one of the first videos I made where you can glimpse my pathetically empty woodshed that is cluttered with junk, however in the vain hope of redeeming some of my self respect I'll first post a picture of the first new load of wood we just brought home in two years. :thumbs:
    Oh, and as a side note, another possible use of a drones for wood burners is to use it to do a cursory but close up inspection of your chimney cap. ;) Maybe I'll make a video of that.
