Makita Makita (twice the saw for the price). An EA3200. Or get yourself one of the cordless battery op ones if you want to stick to that size of...
I do know of one good use for willow - cricket bats!
Most to least? For this season it's ash, silver maple, cherry, white pine and cottonwood. Might be a little bit of sugar maple and black locust...
Katsura have opposite leaves. Those appear to be alternating? The bark looks like katsura though. It may be a little-leaf linden. That's a...
I'm thinking based on your photos that you have some butternut logs. Definitely not black locust. It may be walnut but what little I could see...
I called my local TSC (across the street from my workplace) asking about B&C oil since the website showed them out of stock. It's allegedly on...
The one mulberry that I managed to get my hands on, I thought was a dead boxelder. Haven't noticed others, they're not common.

One thing I've discovered, if you're not noodling larger pieces in half, is to use a sledge and a steel wedge to split those large pieces right...
Counts as a scrounge because it's not off my own property, and is free. Friends of our family are clearing a section of their property so their...
13. It wasn't until I was in my 20's before I had my own saw though. Mostly I'd just cut when my dad got tired, or I begged him enough to let me...
20 years ago it was hard to find a spice rub on the store shelves, save for old standbys like Lawry's and Montreal SS. Now it seems like every...
