    Well I ended up with 2 truck fulls yesterday going to try to get another couple trucks fulls tonight after work is there is any left. Will post pictures when I get home. Also it is definitely apple wood smells amazing cutting or especially when splitting.

    Seems awfully straight for regular apple.
    You thinking of heating with it or using some for smoking?

    Yea I’m not sure exactly what kinda tree it is but it’s definitely some type of apple variant. Also I plan on probably half and half with wood. One half firewood one half for the smoker Maybe more maybe less I dunno:whistle:

    Ya done good! Nice and straight which is unusual for any type of apple. Good firewood and even better for the smoker.

    Still have the apple I cut back in March to process. Wasn't easy getting a straight piece out of it. IMG_5097.JPG

    Just grabbed my 3rd truck full of this apple tree might come back in the morning for the skinny’s but I got 90% of all of it. Bad news is one of my saws went down and no idea what’s wrong so gonna have to take it to the shop on Friday I reckon [​IMG]

    Sucks about the saw but at least you can take it to the dealer you bought it from
