    I'd think about getting an exclusive deal with the company to pick up the ends and start selling them.

    It really doesn't get better than your current set up. The only down side I can see it not getting to run my saws as much as I like. But, that wouldn't stop me from the sweet hookup you've got. Take everything you can get now and do everything in your power to stay on the good side with your supplier. If it were me, I would start with a bottle of Lagavulin 16.

    Oh trust me he is hooking me up and I am hooking him up. He even gave me about 25 buetiful tomatoes today. His garden is unreal. Next week when I head over I'll ask him if he wouldn't mind if I took a pic of it.

    When I picked these up today and told him I was going to take all the soft maple he had at his place before I started getting the red oak he told me if I wanted anymore soft maple just to let him know. He would start bringing loads of that home. He said there mountains of it down at the mill so there is plenty of it to go around. I really don't know what he would charge for loads of it though. We have our own little deal worked out.

    Too bad you don't have a loader or forklift...those blocks could be stacked on a pallet in the truck and then unloaded sweat free

    What a tease are you! You have created an army of green eyed monsters and you leave us with what? Nothing but a mystery! :hair: Well played. :salute:

    I could easily put the saw away for a couple years and just stack those cutoffs if given your situation. Enjoy the bounty and keep posting pictures. :thumbs:
