    Yeah I remember that, log splitter, who needs a log splitter :)
    He has a nice trailer store right near him. And Brad don’t forget, trailers have buttons. Everybody likes buttons :)
    Have you looked at any processors lately?

    Hopefully a nice score. I know that elation well. Always a nice rush ain’t it?

    Yeah Trailer Depot. Got my ball hitch there. Only time i pulled anything was the cherry picker for a couple tree jobs.

    No doubt your trailer is fun and a very cool toy, but with no spot for a trailer or log length storage its a no for now.

    The only time i look at a processer is when i look in the mirror! :rofl: :lol: Scary sight some mornings!:startled:

    I started out with bud lite and took it out, didn't want to be the guy that goes there!
    Buy a dump trailer with a gas engine for hydraulic power then you could plug in the splitter or add an I beam and wedge along the side. All in one!

    I don't see too much "saw" logs in that pile. Is it being bought for firewood?

    He didnt say. He either said "log buyer" or "wood buyer" And no they are on the smaller size. Maybe they can be milled but bring a smaller premium being that size. Maybe JB Sawman can shed some light

    Hey BuZZsaw I have been way busy and this is the first I have been on in a while hickory and oak are in demand for flooring even the smaller stuff but most log buyers only buy down to 10 inch diameter hopfully the log buyer is not a firewood buyer or a mulch wood buyer or they will take all GOOD LUCK JB
