    Dang buddy, thats a lot and the one you're sitting on won't be easy to split I'm guessing-sorry I didnt think of you last week but there was a brand new 22 ton Dirty Hand Tools, never used w/Kohler engine in the local Ad-Bulletin for 8 bills OBO, they paid 1100. for it-I still have it in my office, I can call the # tomorrow to see if they still have if you like? I started to post the notice but didnt think it was close enough to anyone who might be interested, esp since I thought you had one...if its still available, thats a great deal! Nice score on the wood my friend:yes:

    I'm looking here. I found an almost new County Line 35 ton for 1300 but I haven't a clue if it's worth the jack the guy is asking for it. You're near Huntington aren't you? For the right splitter and price I could make the trip.

    That is the largest ash log I have ever seen. Take your time working your way through it.

    Will you be able to give your complete attention to "operation CSS" Ralphie Boy or do you trade time for green backs like most of us?

    I'm simi-retired so the wood will get a lot of loving attention.

    I may share the love with a couple of other retired old farts who live around me. No point in me being greedy, I've got almost 18 cord ready or near ready gor the stove.
