This is unusual for me because I do not like to cut trees around the house. Especially the sugar maples, which have more value to me as syrup...
Close enough. I'm a ten-minute walk and a good spitball from New York, and far too close to Massachusetts (20 miles) :whistle:
Still a few small piles here and there where it was plowed up. No frost either so everything's pretty solid and dry. May not get a "mud season"...
Spent a fantastic Saturday working with the boy out in the yard, taking down a few trees that have just overgrown their welcome, shading the...
Man, I wish I had your problem. Those trees are much bigger than I interpreted from your earlier posts. I i figured it was just a bunch of...
One chain and a file kit. You should be able to cut all that up and more. Sharpen after every tank of gas whether you think it needs it or not.
OK, this does have to do with firewood some, but there's a larger context. I have five kids and the two youngest are still living at home,...
In 1987, my parents lost about 6 acres of red pines to the infamous "October snowstorm" in southern VT. Today it's all grown back as white birch,...
When referring to blue beech, ironwood, musclewood or American hornbeam, the botanical name for this species is Carpinus caroliniana. I usually...

Chestnut oak?
That's sugar maple.
Yeah, me too.
Personally I'd keep it all. I like to mix pine in with my stacks to either reduce a heavy coal bed, or provide a quick fire if the coals are very...
I raised pigs once, together with my ex-business-partner. He had the space to raise them and I didn't, so they stayed at his house about a mile...
I'm showing my age but I believe the old Oilzum B&C oil used to be blue. Still got a couple empty quart cans from that brand floating around in...
I've never bought a log truck's worth of wood, but a few years ago, I got several full dump truck loads from a contractor friend for $200 a load....
Red pine bark is very thin and much more 'orangey' than that. My woods is full of it, all planted in the 1950's. The OP is in New Jersey so that...
That's an ugly mess. Not sure of the wood species though. I don't recognize it.
These craigslist wood ads just don't happen around me. Everyone burns wood and it's a fight to get the rare scrounge. If you don't have a...
