First off I haven’t posted in awhile so I’m doing good and Happy Holidays. I found some ash and oak in one of my scrounge spots. I concentrated on ash today. Got a nice truckload. I will go back tomorrow and get some red oak.
Nice score! Unless someone was saving that for me I would be there with a loader and trailer hauling it all now. That's nice looking stuff.
Well hey from a fellow CT hoarder. You splitting that by hand? Ash generally seems fairly easy to do by hand. Not as brittle as oak. I split a little by hand this summer, enjoyed it a bit. How many cord do you estimate is there in that pile? SCA
I split it all with the Fiskars X27. There is allot of wood there right now. Was a nice day to be outside.
Went back today, a guy even older than me was cutting at the red oak pile, I cut a bunch more ash and finished the load off with some oak.
What is the etiquette when that happens? Did he say hello or ignore you? Is he a member here I wonder?
This is at a town owned location in Granby. I’ve accounted 5-6 cord there over the years. I saw a few other people scrounging there this weekend. One guy told me the town and Eversource dump there.
Nice to have a little source for the occasional scrounge! Do you check often or go there when the need to hoard strikes you? Problem is it strikes me everyday.
