    Met some tree guys recently that know I need wood. Some oak cherry and maple. Took me 1.75 hours to buck the cherry and load it. Large oak coming down later today.... 7D3F893F-0428-4BB3-A6AF-CC71E98009EE.jpeg 94A14685-2467-411B-90D7-12F79F639F86.jpeg B588BFBD-5D5C-4324-BF30-F4EC0A6F3D21.jpeg 2BC5B34F-3781-4C90-B6A0-20FF1F6494D1.jpeg

    Good score. Keep that relationship solid. If they are beer drinkers flip them a 12 pack occasionally.

    Looks beautiful...congrats. Every time i think i befriend a tree guy, they promise to drop something off then they never show...frustrating. I have a lot of beer and cigars too!

    Nice score. I love that cherry. A case of beer or a pizza at a job site usually keeps the wood coming your way.

    Just show up when you say you will to pick up the wood and they'll be more than thankful. Give them a 12 pack now and then and they'll give you the best they come across. This is coming from a "tree guy" that appreciates people who do what they say they will.

    Nice score Woodsnwoods ! With a rig like that and some integrity, your tree guy should happily keep you supplied with gooder scores in the future. :thumbs:


    As another "tree guy" I can't stress this enough! When I was giving wood away if you didn't promptly show up to pick up wood after I called you, I would have to go back and pick it up myself. This was sometimes at the curb of a client. How many more times do you think I called those that didn't promptly do what they said they would? Yep its zero.
