I saw a few different methods and this one seemed the easiest way for me to work it, with what I have. Some people were putting the whole shelled...
I barely made a dent in my acorn stash :picard: Here’s the first batch of flour in-process. One part shelled acorns to 3 parts water run through...
Not without cleaning it every week :) I try not to let it get too bad, otherwise it becomes a serious chore. A little fine stove ash mixed with...
Nothing wrong with poplar. :yes: I'll hoard more of it whenever the opportunity presents itself, and I have an abundance of "better" species in my...
Time to toughen up. Several months of high temperatures have thinned out my blood and left me unprepared for the 45 degrees I woke up to at 4:00am...
I love the Full Metal Jacket reference ;) 3 feet is my limit, and it better be straight grained oak on level ground where I can drive right up,...

I don't think they want us completely disarmed, just reduced to single shot 0.177 caliber break barrel air rifles :picard:
That’s what I did with black locust seeds and it definitely works. Pretty high germination rate after you soften that protective coating on the...

I remember that storm well… I was watching the satellite images from the safety of my air conditioned apartment in Florida :rofl: :lol: 4 months...

It’s rare (around here) to find the wild types with the seed pods. I’d snatch a few up and do some guerrilla planting next spring :cool:
Although I'm still in the building stage (got it framed up in May, haven't touched it since :whistle:) if I had to do it over I wouldn't have dug...
From what I personally would consider top-shelf, in order from the most to least plentiful species I come across: red oak sugar maple black birch...

rainking63 I don’t know if you’re aware of it or not, but there’s a famous tree at the library in your town. Back in May I actually stopped by to...
Holy smokes you aren’t fooling around with that setup! With a big trailer like that, and the machine coming along for the ride, I’ll bet there...
I wasn’t too anxious for winter to come, but that picture almost made me wish it was closer. :) The red maples here are just starting to turn in...
45 minutes ago right over my house 2 LOUD fighter jets hard on the throttle came out of nowhere, just above the tree line heading north towards...
