Ahhh I see what you're driving at with the appearance of a faint sapwood ring. Possibly Pin Oak with that smooth bark. I'm not sure I see any...
Nice dump score :thumbs: This one could be tree of heaven. If underneath the bark smells like rancid peanut butter, that's what I'd put my money...
I took a small cookie from this score, chopped it into smoker sized pieces and brought it into work for a coworker friend. He was more than happy...
I was digging around the FHC archives and came across this thread. Looks to me like what you have here is Chinese chestnut. Here's a couple bark...
In a way I’m not too surprised a few of the seeds were still viable. Those trees were acclimated to the desert climate and were “designed” to go...
How does it burn? I'm not expecting to be blown away by it, but if there's a pleasant smell while burning (like cherry) that would be kind of a...
One stove load at a time. (No I don’t store it on the top of my stove either) :p When I fire it up first thing in the morning, I’ll have the next...
I figured you might have been aware of the story, although I'm sorry to hear that it hits a little too close to home for you. Such a horrible...
Unfortunately we (the public) have a long-standing relationship with nuclear accidents. A lot of people know about the 3 mile island accident in...
I dunno man, you may want to lay low for a while... [ATTACH]
That’s got to be the largest piece of elm I’ve ever seen. :drool: Judging by the outside it looks like the outer layers could be dry, but it’s not...
Speaking of cheap fun 0.177 plinkers, I bought a Sig Sauer P226 a few months back. I got it with 2 magazines, which each hold 16 pellets or BB's....
I DID! :D Up until today I've only smelled the leaves and scratched the surface of the bark too. It's definitely got an odd but pleasant smell to it.
I’ve been driving past this sassafras limb since tropical storm Isaias brought it down in August 2020. Hearing that the wood is somewhat rot...
Justice is supposed to be blind so this is kind of a side point, but looking at the history of the two “peaceful protestors” as far as I’m...
Yeah it’s no fun sitting on the cold ground doing that sort of thing. I got it done just as the snow squalls were coming down hard. I had to...
I just brought in a little more today myself, although not having a Kubota, the wheelbarrow was my tool of choice. This was completely filled with...
I thought either it’s holding more heat, or the bricks absorbed some kind of salt somewhere along the way. Kind of strange. As far as shoveling...
Here’s a funny unexpected outcome of building this with randomly scrounged bricks. Looks like some of these hold heat more than the rest: [ATTACH]
Ahh gotcha. I’m sure his product will be a hit and the display you made him will be a huge eye catcher as well :yes:
