Short on firewood for my own use years ago, I turned to a standing dead oak. It had been dead for years to the point only the trunk was left....
Good sun and wind exposure speeds drying up a lot. Wood sheds are great and all but in many climates, they slow the drying process down.
I went to pick up a 330 gallon tote yesterday that was heaping with fresh oak. The 1070 JD would only get it about 2 feet off the ground but it...
In this group, the better question probably is, who doesn't? Not much to it really.
With some luck, it will be on the ground when you get there tomorrow.

I would agree that it looks like pin oak.
$200 a cord is basically giving it away.
Tulip poplar and ash can look very similar bark wise except that poplar bark has a lot of "strings" as it's falling off the log. Ash bar just...
Thanks for all of the replies. I stopped over his place yesterday. I have never held a moisture meter let alone used one until I was there. His...
