I just bumped into a tree guy that was putting a maple thru the chipper, can I get that wood that's left, ok what's your address , I'll take pics once he drops it off on Sunday after hes done cutting it up to 18" rounds , he told me he had a oak tree last week so I gave him my number so we shall see if he comes thru
It sure is. I definitely appreciate the wood fairy showing up. It's always a nice way to come back home after a day of work and seeing logs dropped off. Hopefully they come through for you NYCountry
I have plenty of wood and availability of wood but it always makes me think when I see these posts. The tree guys around here, at least that I know of all take it home and try to sell firewood themselves.
I'm lucky because not too many people burn wood in my neck of the woods. You have a few just do it occasionally in their fireplace. This tree guy I met does it for the money and chips the wood and sells that too. I'm surprised he doesnt take the wood and split it and sell firewood. Better for me..
They do that here too, but the only time I've seen them keep the wood is when it was black locust. I've gotten honey locust from a tree service, but it was also in with some white pine. Also, the places that sell the firewood use a processor, so if it's too big, they can't deal with it.
Sounds like the possible start of a good friendship! Maybe buy him a gift certificate to a local restaurant, I'm betting that will lead to more wood down the road!
If he comes thru as said I'll get him a bottle of some good whiskey and if he continues to do it then a gift certificate to a restuarant will follow thanks Scotty Overkill for some gooder advice
You're a good man, I'm sure you'll take care of him. I find when I do a good thing for someome, it reciprocates back around. Those are the best things we can do for one another in this life......
Absolutely, I agree , you try your best and do good to others and it comes back..cheers brother enjoy your weekend
The tree guy came thru and dumped the maple, I started to split before I head to work, 20 minutes of splitting
