Before I started burning for heat, I had a huge silver maple cut down at great expense due to its location and size. To recoup some of the cash, I...
White pine, spruce, and ash. First two were yard birds, ash was a forest tree. Counted 59 rings on the big one, which was likely planted when the...
For real. Dude needs a trophy. :)
Those are the same hand sized pieces from the other thread? Crazy how tight that soft wood is. I'll snap a pic of some of our spruce tomorrow in...
Pine in the fission tube. Hardwood uglies will go in shortly for the overnight burn. It's this guy's birthday tomorrow, so I am darn sure sleeping...
Cute kids! Good on ya for getting them into the woods. A lot of girls their age (boys too, for that matter) wouldn't be caught dead in the woods...
Loaded this morning at 3:30 with a bunch of uglies - mostly red maple. I hate to burn the hard stuff before it gets cold, but I don't want these...
Happy Thanksgiving to all! Guests have departed, baby is asleep, house is clean, and wifey is napping (WELL deserved after the spread she put on...
I've got a few that like to come down the hill and nibble on the ends of my apple tree branches and the fallen apples that we didn't use due to...
Wow! Assuming a normal size hand (like you're not a midget or an 8' tall dude that can palm a basketball soaked in Crisco) a spruce/pine around...
That's the prevailing "wisdom" around here, too. Most owb owners actually cut right off the pile that's stacked next to their boilers. Sad to see...
Freakiest I get is cardboard every so often to kick start things if I don't have time to keep an eye on starting a fire. A couple well placed...
Thanks for posting this! If I could "extra like" your post, I would. :) And to keep on the spirit of the thread, warm here at 40 with a bunch of...
Nice work. That'll keep the sweaters in the closet for a couple days for sure.
Pretty great! Love the sign - it would go right above my saw area in the garage if I were lucky enough to find it. I agree with your thoughts....
I know das'right! I won't turn my nose up at anything that's delivered, especially delivered already bucked and with help from the delivery man to...
Maybe a cord, cord and a half? All pine and WILLOW (yup. Haha!) except a couple loads of 3yr old mixed hardwood when wind chill got below zero for...
Sometimes it's calming, sometimes it makes you say "man, I have got some WORK to do!" Good feeling either way if you ask me. And welcome!
They all seem to die of lead poisoning around here. GrubEx will keep them from setting up shop most of the time. They like to eat the fat juicy...
Well darn. Thanks for the education. :)
