    Nice looking load of wood. Nice looking location too.:thumbs: I like the stack under the stairs. Don't recall ever seeing one like that on here.

    Under the stairs wood (bout 1/2 cord) makes it till the new year B4 weather gets nasty,, then I have a wood shed with 4.5 cords.
    Sure is handy tho,,

    Was cutting up some ash that was dead-standing and felled last year, and you can clearly see the work of the evil EAB under the bark:

    Been taking a break for a few weeks with what I thought was a hernia. Turns out I had a pinched inguanal nerve, Wich attaches directly to one of the testicles. So that was fun.
    Had a local tree guy drop a small Bradford pear loadat my house today, split some pine and cottonwood.
    A few pictures of my hoard.
    Glad I got cool neighbors that don't mind living next to a wood hoarding hillbilly

    That's what I thought I had.
    Did CT scan all that jazz.
    Doc said no hernia, bump is a swollen lymph node.
    Always swells up after heavy lifting.
    Been hurting off and on for a few years.
    Guess I gotta admit I'm not 20 anymore and work smarter not harder

    To change subjects here, I have an Excel spreadsheet that includes 280 species of wood found in N America, and it includes common names, scientific names, specific gravity, weight, BTUs, and in some cases drying times. I even broke out different sheets for different tree families (oak, maple, pine, etc) with BTU bar-charts. Is there anywhere I can upload that? I tried in the education section but it wouldn't take an excel file.

    Could it be saved as a PDF file and uploaded? or once it is saved as a PDF, then save it as a jpeg and upload like a picture?

    Way way to big for my 362c with 25" bar
    Got a lot of wood from it, but was only able to process about 1/3rd of it
    I almost always enjoy wood working but this plain sucked with what I got

    Not much of a woodcutter, but it doesn't look like you tackled this one correctly!
