I think it's interesting how different trees grow in different areas. In this area silver maples grow like weeds, and it's common to have them...
Yes that worked. I've never heard of anything burning hotter than hedge. Hedge burns so hot it will warp a mild steel stove, and crack a cast iron...
Looks more like oak and silver maple. [ATTACH]
Osage Orange should be at the top of the charts for btu ratings. It only changes the order of that page. Not the highest btu's of all types of trees.
Is there any way to make the chart with an option to view it by btu rating? Also would be nice to click on 3-4 different types of wood and compare...

It's almost like they are asking to be warmed up on the grill. :grizz: [ATTACH]
This is the bulk of firewood sellers in my area. Most people who buy firewood don't know, (or don't care) that the wood is cut down the same day,...

Which tree is Ironwood? I've heard Hedge, (Osage Orange) Hop Hornbeam, Pacific Dogwood, and Blue Beech all called ironwood.
:handshake: hats off to you. I thought I was the last hold out in 2019.
All the tree id info can be found online for free.
Hmm, interesting. They all get 20" plus here. Most people mow them down and will plant other trees. It is unusual to use them for firewood here...
Very cool pic!! In this area cedars grow like weeds. If you don't mow an area for a few years it will be mostly cedar trees that start growing.
Thank you sir. :handshake:
I really like your set up. Just curious though. Why didn't you cut all the way thru the log when it was in the log arch?
Thanks brother!! :thumbs: It was straight, but it had a ton of knots in it, and he biggest one was probably 18" dia. Do you think it would be good...
Cottonwood. Especially with the foul smell.
Made a quick video, hope you enjoy. I think I need a little better angle on the shot. or possibly multiple angles. [MEDIA]
