If I had totes to store them in I'd take a lot more oddball pieces home. They're awesome to burn in the spring/fall, it's just storing them that's...
LOL I'll bet a guy with a Dodge and large trailer w/winch could yank that sucker out in a jiffy :whistle: Did you burn any of that beech you got a...
Nice saw and it looks badash wearing that Aussie bar. One of these days I'd like to splurge for one of them.
The tree service that butchered this tree up cut everything at weird angles. I cleaned up end cuts as I went, and cut my 16" +/- lengths. Whatever...
It's hard to tell from the last picture but that large trunk section spans over a stream. I'll get what I can from it anyway. It's a little too...
I don’t score American beech very often, especially in significant quantities. A tree service was doing some roadside clearing this week down by...
Alright I think the root cause was 2 things: first and foremost, the sprocket was indeed being pinched by the bar. Something in their...
I just spent a considerable amount of time freeing the sprocket and cleaning the bar out. The chips I was making are nice and large. I’m pretty...
Other than a week here and there, it has been relatively warm.
The hardwood looks like Siberian elm to me. The softwoods both look like spruce. Hemlocks have short needles too, but the needles are flattened...
I've seen quite a few with grain so twisted you could see a candy cane pattern along the outer bark, but never one side of the trunk completely...
Coincidence, or synchronicity? ;) Definitely not everyday you see BLS stickers. Must be reserved for those of us still holding on tight to the...
I'm solidly in the black birch camp. I've checked beech at 9 months and it was over 20%. The sugar maple I was boiling sap with a couple weeks ago...
Nice woods. Skunk cabbage is one of the first green things to pop up in late winter. I'm sure if I go check the wet areas around here later this...

It was 32 this morning when I got up to light a small red oak fire. By 10am we were getting cooked out of the house, and it hit 60 today. No more...
Agreed, psychedelic rock didn't have the same draw that progressive rock has. It kind of fizzled out with the dawn of the 70s. The counter-culture...
A couple years back I got a $900 water bill for the quarter, then the following quarter it was $1200. I finally contacted them and it took some...
A LOT. I dunno, about 2000 kWh? 6 people in my house so it takes a lot of juice. Dryer runs almost daily, same as the washer. Electric water...
All of a sudden I got up to 12 gallons this afternoon, so while I was at work I instructed my uncle to stop by my house and take them since he was...
