I did not read the entire article, as I do not 'support' that website/source, but I did read several paragraphs and I didn't see anything bogus,...
That was going to be my comment, you beat me to it. Curious what you will do with the pines, Jeff. Nobody around here burns pine. I could get all...
Until recently, I had never seen references to building solar kilns putting plastic atop the pallets before stacking and then drilling/cutting...
Can anyone recommend gloves for dirty/greasy/oily work? I have never used, have no idea what to buy. I saw some 5 mil nitrile gloves but the box...
Hinerman I get it on the heat problem, I detest working in heat also but I don't think I have ever had a heat stroke or something. I just can't...
Very cool. Why didn't you top/limb the trees? Just curious. I think I have also seen some affix something to the skidding end of the log so that...
You are SO right, Brad, and I have a big pile of splits close by there, I will make a stack 4 ft high for a test. I used 3 mil for the top. I...

I think I tried it a couple of times on dead saws and it hasn't worked. If it did, I don't remember it. I do remember the last time, it didn't...
Well, that is awesome but I find it crazy for you to think we would be satisfied not knowing how you scored these two for free!

Such an interesting mix of trees!
Just some musings as I age. Stacking... chief reason for "there goes the profit." This is my observation from having to hire help these last two...
