Wow this is all amazing. Awesome work!
Nothing wrong with pine at al. I scrounge pine whenever I see it. Have tossed some dry pine into our wood stove on ocassion. Burns just fine...
Hahaha, yeah what am I saying?! There is never enough. My roadside ash score from the other day is just up the road. Will hit that again soon. The...
Got the staging done. Time to haul over the splitter! Think I’m set with Ash for a while... [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Geez. Pretty sure I’ve cut and split some honey locust before but never seen anything like that. That’s crazy. Nice work with the clearing.
:salute:
Yes sir. I think I’ll be able to get a truckload on the way home later! Headed over to our friends house now where I’ve been cutting the big ash...
Measured the tree this morning with a rope. Biltmore stick only goes to 36” DBH. The tree is 135 inches circumference at 4.5 feet. If I did my...
I’ve been thinking about adding another bay to our wood shed. That’d allow us to get 10 cord in the shed which is two years of burning for us....
Nice looking wood there. Way too warm today. Was 50° here, too. Surprised though to see you’re snowless up there.

Thanks for the input everyone. Was planning to walk back out and look for leaves this afternoon but then this happened on the drive home......
Having some trouble with a tree ID. 100 yards or so behind our house stands this massive, old tree. Wish I had given it more attention when the...
Nice shot! Coyote trapping is such a challenge. Lots to think about to ensure success. The coyote does not fool easily. It’s such a thrill...
The hypnotic effect of the “dancing blues”... better than TV any day!
Very interesting. I just passed up an article on Google about Chinese chestnut, published out of a University in Missouri. I will go back and give...
We burn 5-6 cord per year. I’ve scrounged many cord from the roadsides over the years and am more and more harvesting off our property. Have not...
I think it is chestnut. Those are pretty solid clues. Leaves and fruits are key. Bark-only ID is never a guarantee I’ve found. Most of the time...
Beautiful cabin, JDU Cant say I’ve ever seen young chestnut. The wood in your first picture looks very similar to pin cherry but maybe I’ve been...
Thanks for sharing the link, hovland.
