    Not a bad morning for a little cherry. Took 3 saws but ended up doing it all with the 620.

    For some reason it won't let me upload this picture from my phone. Had a heck of a lean to it.

    I'd say your right half a cord. I always have my fair share of cherry. Pretty plentiful around here.

    Some sweet looking wood there LP! A 16" DBH tree will yield approximately a half cord. Too bad about the metal. Loves to play hide and seek in trees.

    I don't like swinging it like I used to but was sure glad I had it with me because I forgot my ramp to roll big ones in the truck.
