    No not that kind. :smoke: :emb: Firewood kind of course. :woodsign:

    Had to run an errand after work and passed this on the way home. Tree guy just finishing up for the day. Stopped, asked and can take whatever I want. Not a lot for primo firewood...mostly silver maple. Big cedar caught my eye for mill fodder. 16" butt end and 9-10' long. Called buzz-saw. Him and I will grab them tomorrow afternoon when the rain ends. IMG_5295.JPG IMG_5296.JPG IMG_5297.JPG IMG_5298.JPG

    Correction: it was red maple plus a couple rounds of Norway maple. IMG_5301.JPG buzz-saw's trailer loaded with the cedar. Off to the Miller's. Big log was 19" at butt end and 13" at the other. Took a little doing but we managed. IMG_5299.JPG What was left behind. IMG_5300.JPG Quick lunch and off to storage to split the load.

    I like Norway maple for firewood.

    Nice call on using the cedar for lumber. Any ideas what it will get made into?
