Atta boy Brad. A couple years ago you were on the fence about taking any amount of cottonwood, now look at you! Almost makes me want to find some...
Nice pile of logs but a sad scene indeed. What's left of the ash in my area looks a lot worse than that. Makes me wish I salvaged more for milling...
I'll try it out tomorrow. It was put out to the curb with all sorts of garage items. I left with about 100 feet of extension cords, the bandsaw,...
Holy smokes you must be living right! And here I thought I was lucky grabbing a 10" vertical band saw off the curb earlier today...
This was the only live tree that they took down. There's a couple dead white oaks about 24" DBH that I saw, and what looked like an 18" dead red...
I was just at Scarborough Beach this past weekend. Next time I go I'll have to try it out. Minus the Narragansett LOL
I had my coworker carpooling with me yesterday when I cut this. The first round I noodled in half and then he suggested we try hefting the next...
56 and overcast, and it’s not supposed to get out of the 60s today. We’re still a month away from lighting the stove and I’m almost ready mentally.
Now that the temperatures are starting to fall, my willingness to pick up a chainsaw is growing. As luck would have it, a bunch of roadside trees...
When you took this picture was the chain still warm from being run? A warm chain will grow due to thermal expansion, then as it cools down it...
My thoughts too :emb:
I haven't snooped around there in a while. Last time I had a good look back in the spring, the homeless encampment was still in the woods, so I...
He did note that it was hard on his sawmill blade(s). I have to imagine his planer blades too. I haven't seen it in person yet but I think you're...
Spar urethane.
I thought so too. This is the entrance to his wood shop. Makes me want to save up to buy a sawmill someday...
Alright, I have to share this even though it’s not firewood related. Back when I first worked this score, a coworker of mine grabbed a bunch of...
Low 60s and overcast, which is feeling a lot like fall. I’m more than okay with that. The AC finally gets a break :thumbs:
Yours must not be too far behind though, I imagine. The ones up on the mountain near my house peaked this week, but the plants growing 30 miles...
Do you have zebra mussels there or some other kind of invader?
Maybe the PVC is so they can monitor the water table?
