    Amazing what a guy can accomplish when the wood is all in one place and on flat ground. You posted some really good threads on this cedar score of yours.

    Someone kept at it! Do you cut and split until the supply normally runs out and wait until the next time they drop them?

    Allan, my hat is off to you sir. That is an accomplishment you can be very proud of for a long time. In addition, I know you made 2 ladies very happy and proud along with your pastor. Now I hope you take a well-deserved day off or maybe more!

    Allan; Hoarder of the year!

    I did most of my cutting on week days as it gets crowded with cutters on the weekends , and on only two occasions was there another cutter there . I decided to cut as long as the wood supply lasted as the Pastor would have liked to have gotten more wood ,but will keep an eye on the area should more wood arrive .

    campinspecter managed to find two more truck loads in the debris. There was a log hiding behind another rotten one. The Pastor is going to be pleased with the two extra loads.
