That sure looks like Tupelo to me, aka Nyssa sylvatica, also called black tupelo, black gum or sour gum. Good luck splitting ito_O
Bark screams Hickory but as Brad said something about branch structure tells me otherwise.
Not a fan of Norway maples. I would put that tree out of it's misery and add another ornamental to the yard, sounds like you have quite a few already.
How many hours on it? Original tracks and drive train? I would think you might be better off selling on your own but see what a dealer would give...
I used to mix it all together but last few years I started to separate by species. I burn in a fireplace so having dry wood is key for a nice fire.
That came out great!!! Very organized
you trying to speed up the drying process? one piece at a time:picard:
Anyone remember the April fools day storm of 97? Hard to forget that one
That saw is a screamer, you have to be excited beyond belief. I have a ported 372 and it sounds just like yours. It puts a smile on your face...
Funny, never split it but wouldn't have figured that's what Hackberry looked like on the inside. Surprise!!!
Love some white oak, one of my favorites. The splits come out so nice. What's your guess on the moisture content?
I would have bet from the first 2 pics it was cherry, but something about the bark seems off to me, can't put my finger on it
Two of my favorite species.
Some nice clean logs in there. What lengths will you cut?
That looks like a great setup. Plenty of sun and wind to dry the wood out.
Nothing better than seeing all those splits tacked perfectly in the trailer :yes: You working with all Oak?
Very nice!! Looks like a well built machine. Report back and let us know how you like it
And some tree removal. Are they planning on taking that down now?
Sass, makes great kindling!!
I have no idea but that thing is bad a$$. How long is the blade? Looks like it could tear through some wood.
