    Nice work. I love the 12 inch minus rounds as I can burn them whole. Nice work, I am jealous as I rarely get oak.

    Nice work guys. Love that telephone pole straight lumber. And nice diameter as well.
    Makes me want to get my hands on a chain saw mill and a larger saw to cut some slabs.

    Great wood! But no safety glasses, chaps? I guess I’ve been hanging out here too long! Lol
    Good haul though! Beautiful wood. Do you guys have a agreement for the land to cut the trees? That’s a pretty sweet score.

    The Superintendent takes down trees and has no use for the wood. He puts them in dumpsters that get taken away at a cost of $3000 per dumpster. We’re saving him a lot of money. HE THANKS US!!!!

    LOL! I see what you did there! Wonder if they used a sand wedge or a felling wedge?
