My first thought was that this is elm. People on this forum report that the preferred way of dealing with it if you choose to be so brave is to...
That is interesting that you know willow oak and have experience with it. Do you have water oak there? That is a super common tree here. They grow...
Those who have stored big oak rounds, how long have you gone until you split them and what was the condition? I have been splitting large red oak,...
The new Stihl mowers make me wonder... if a Stihl chainsaw (and other Stihl equipment) dealer has been selling eXmark mowers for a long time,...
The 152 for $5600, do you know how wide the deck is?
I have a Husqvarna 540i battery saw and I have never noticed the battery getting hot. I have a 16" bar/chain on it. It cuts good, the only...
I would also like to see a link to that wood weight table if possible. What is goldilocks wood? I guess I knew but I forget.
Brad, you said "BG" but I guess you meant, "SG?" That's sweet gum, not black gum. And black gum isn't any better, lol. We grow 'em big down here,...

I am in one of your deep south states. I know a few people who heat with wood but it's very uncommon. And that means two cords/year. Around here,...
I borrowed a Harbor Freight 3pt quick hitch gizmo from my brother because I had bought log tongs similar to what you linked to, maybe they are...

Interesting how companies come out with new product. Their marketing theories would be interesting. I was not aware of these either. For little,...
Have you read the thread? Did you read post #5? Do you think anyone ever comes up with a better mousetrap?
Yes, the Log To Cord calculator does NOT account for air in a stack. I never found it to be useful (except to measure solid wood volume) due to...
Another way to say it... For a given quantity of solid wood... say, one cord... which is a piece of 'lumber' that is 4'x4'x8' (128 cu ft of...
