    Finally was able to get a load of kiln dried today. I think I've called 14 times in about twenty weeks as they dont sell off the scraps every week. Got to get there at 6am and its gone by about 7. Got 2 scoops today. I haven't been using near as much now that I have the IS. There are always coals left to get a reload started.

    For reference, the trailer is 22 feet long
    1.5 cords for $50

    Good score! My brother is renovating his house so I've been loading up on all the lathe he's ripping off the walls, that stuff I is bone dry.

    That surely is a great trailer Tim. You won't need kindling for a while now.

    Yes . My BIL likes to root though it and use it on his lathe. He says he can't believe I'd burn such nice stuff.

    Very nice. You still get all oak? If so, I'm ultra jealous. I lost my source of oak pallet rejects.

    If you ever make it up to the N.E. part of the state I'll give you all you want for free.......I own a custom cabinet shop and have a hard time getting rid of it.
