    Nice Ward Hoarder but before you take it down and put in the shed, can you put some Christmas lights on it?

    That's gotta be my favorite tree ever, no branches to limb off or anything.

    Hope you saved some seeds from that.

    Took your advice and planted a seed and this is what grew. 12'2" tall offspring grew in it's place. PS do you know anything about a package that showed up at my house yesterday?

    Lovin that tree.
    :yes:

    Package you say?
    Hmmm...
    :sherlock:

    :santa:
    :D

    Hope you like it, and it mills many boards for you.

    According to Woodmizer it's supposed to clear the cut of sawdust better.

    Took a gamble that it might be a blade you haven't already purchased and used.
