According to the Michigan DNR there are none in our state. Hate to disagree with them, but I have a friend that got a picture of one on his trail...
No doubt the remains of Treebeard from the Hobbit.
That's hilarious! I imagine they thought they were just moving. Never heard of that happening before.
Most likely there is already a thread about this, but let's have some fun again. Not sure what this was but it did this to a piece of oak. What...
Great thread, tons of good information. When I first started cutting (very much a rookie) I would take my dull chains to a local hardware that...
A very big thank you to everyone for the nice thoughts. My best wishes for a good and prosperous New Year to all. You guys just made my year complete.
Been through a few here in Lower Michigan also. Thw worst was maybe 10 years back with no power for 4 days. I remember getting up the first...
Hope this doesn't bore you folks, but a while back I promised to post a start to finish stove install, so here goes. A little commentary with each...
Bert, You just hit the bail on the head.

Gloves and shovel yes they are necessities. Interesting about the glass cloeaner and razor scraper. In all the years with the Fireview, never used...
Nice work Dennis. Can't keep a good man down you know!
Good for you. A nice Christmas present for sure. That ain't going to happen around here with a face cord of green Oak going for $90 to $100...
Dead ringer for the Bradford we have. I have burned some and yes good heat, but split even the smaller branches as they seem to really hold moisture.
Gotta agree with moving it into the shed or at least top cover. Loose stacks too. I did not see what kind of wood you have. If it is a type of...
If we let the stove go cold with no embers left, I'll be the first to admit that I like using Super Cedars. About 1/3 of one will start things...
