The Car Hoarding thread

Looks like locust. Nice score!!

 

I was asked on another forum if I had put my van back on the road lol

 

It's funny, but it sure looks fake.

All of you would benefit from a cheap trailer for scrounging [/QUOTE]
What makes you think that we don't have one?

It's often gone if you go home for the trailer...

 

I was just looking on CL and saw a small locust pile. Started to get excited until I realized it was the one Midwinter already got a few days ago.

 

Ha! He should have taken a new picture, of the stuff I left behind. Some maple and oak.
Driving through Methuen, there were a lot of brush and wood piles on the curb. Looked like there would be a city pickup soon.

 

Left behind?!?
Your hoarder card might be revoked!

 

I was on the way to pick up my grandson, more precious cargo than wood! As it was, he was pretty much hemmed in.

 

We'll let this one slide...

 

I hope he didn't get tossed under that tree in your front yard with the wood.

 

After he helped me stack, I tried to get him to help unload my car. One trip across the lawn with a moderate load in the yard wagon, and it was, "Grandma, I'm going in the house now."

 

Same thing right near me. I saw some trucks out this morning loaded with brush. I'd think that it would be more effective to run a chipper for all the brush.

 

Still have to haul the chips.

Which brings me to the question of why these guys chip or dump such thick limbs?

I drive past brush piles all over the state seeing a ton of useable limb feet of fire wood in every one.

A few weeks ago I snatched some big ash logs from down the street...as much as I could fit... expecting to find the 4-7 inch limbs waiting the next day. Nope... they chipped em.

 

Grabbed the last of the ash tree from the elderly woman who approached me's yard this morning. Brought the wheelbarrow, underestimating how much was actually left. I left two pieces behind, and then had to disassemble the wheelbarrow to get it in too. Good thing my saw came with that handy multitool!

 

Ash slab and a little apple, can't stop hoarding! I think I might save the slab for stack bottoms and tops. I'm stuck using tarps, and it helps to have the top level.

 

Hope this works out...

 

I'm hoping this is young black locust. I picked this up off the side of the road (Hudson, but I'm not telling where, Mwalsh9152), and I'll go back for more today.

 

Looks locusty to me. If I weren't in Meffid today I would be cruising Hudson!

 

Cleaned up what I've been told is black cherry. Some storm damage at a friend's in town. I cut it up a couple of months ago to get it off his lawn. Went and got it today.

Looks like some of the ornamental cherry I get. It has a multicolor target on the ends.
