I’ve been carrying this one around for about 10 years, and it shows. Columbia River Knife and Tool, made in Oregon. I started carrying it whenever...
It’s only 72 but still oppressively humid. Looks like we’ll be in the high 40s for lows later this week! That’s going to feel amazing. I’ve had...
If you were to tell me 10 years ago that I’d be making X amount per year while simultaneously fitting the “working poor category”, I’d have told...
I concur 100% :handshake: My Echo CS-370 with the 16” bar does well in that role.
I just finished splitting what I got so far. Looks to be a few cold days worth of heat :thumbs: It’s only stacked in a temporary location for the...
This guy in upstate New York is growing a few chinquapins, along with many different cultivars of chestnuts from pure American to hybrids of...
This was a tree that came down next door to me during Isaias in August 2020. I split it on the thin side to dry it faster, so it should be good to...
Luckily I have a few stove loads of Shagbark to burn this year. Not a lot obviously but enough to get a better feel for the stuff. This stack is...
In The Wood Wolverine ’s honor I’m going to fire up a mixed load of elm AND hickory on the first frigid day this winter ;) If I had to pick just...
Nice! Those should produce well for many years to come. Being from Missouri, do you ever come across any surviving Ozark Chinquapins?
I was out running errands tonight and went 2-3 miles out of my way to snatch that smaller log :whistle: I found another one pinched under a large...
I’m definitely getting the other shorter log, and while I’m there I’ll take another look to see if they left any of the limbs. Hickory of any kind...
If it was red maple or yellow birch covered in poison ivy I’d have left it in the ditch I found it in. From my experience with the little bit of...
There’s a few log lengths of dead ash that’s still worth messing with, although the smaller stuff is getting mealy. The larger trunks look solid...
I thought I was done… but it’s hard to pass on hickory. There’s one more shorter log there I plan to get too. Unfortunately it’s further down the...
Randomly stumbling across a surviving roadside American chestnut loaded with burs never gets old for me. If the trees can sexually reproduce on...
Oh those were all furry poison ivy vines wrapping the entire log :whistle: Fingers crossed I don’t get it too bad. The last couple times I’ve cut...
Another roadside score from the same location that I got last month’s American elm. Morathis Fantabulous Ulmus Maximus Several trees felled and...
I hope we get at least a couple good storms this winter. I actually enjoy it when a blizzard hits, especially if I can't make it into work :) My...
Right you are :) [ATTACH]
