Crappy pictures but my filing is improving. For a while I was getting some back lean, which I corrected. I found a 5/32” round file is perfect for...
Rethinking round chain. It’s probably been tried before but I want to see what happens. I used a 3/16” round file to touch up this chain to give...
I can promise you it's not at will LOL. Timing is everything. More times than I could possibly count I've spotted something on the side of the...
Kind of a sad day here. I was driving by the very first roadside grove of surviving American chestnut trees I found back in June 2021. The power...
I lost count of how much I’ve burned this year, but even on the warmer days (40-50) I was still having consistent small fires. This was my first...

My coworker got his insert installed today so he sent me a picture of it going with the yellow birch I sold him. He’s thrilled, and I’m happy for...
It's black birch. There were 3 small black birch trees taken down and I grabbed it all.
Thanks, I'm trying to get all the bull work done before the warm weather hits. I've got a little ways to go before I refill what I sold off this...
We have one about 13 miles south of me. It originally came from my town though. [ATTACH]
I don't know about luck... Just have to strike when the iron is hot is all ;)
Not much in the way of beech from this spot today, just these 4 heavy noodled quarters. I did grab all the black birch that was cut nearby, which...
On the dirt road where I’ve been cutting dead ash for months, a tree crew dropped dozens of trees along the road last week. I had some time this...
Winter has returned. 27/70 red oak and elm shorties.
I think he had 25 gallons to boil last night. He was sending me pictures until about midnight :) As of this morning all of my jugs were...
That's awesome man. When my kids were younger I played a lot of Beach Boys, Beatles, Elvis, etc. Whatever gets them bopping.
