    Hold the Super cedar in a 1 gallon ziplock bag, break it in half (the cellophane usually tears), now pull off the cello and then break each 1/2 into quarters. Do this 3 or 4 times and you end up with 16 firestarters in the bag, with all the crumbs also in the bag. ;) I have some stuff to give away.. will check tonight...

    I Normally buy the Green version as well, but when I did buy them wrapped, I just broke them in half whole wrapped.
    They snap in half and the wrapper is now opened and you can continue to break it down into quarters, or use a half.

    If you break it in the stove there is no mess, but I have been using a coffee can for the last two years. All the crumbs fall in there. I normally keep 2 or 3 unwrapped SC in there. Then, when those are gone, you have enough scrap in the bottom to light a fire. Just pour out the can into a small pile, light, add splits.

    Found this in the garage it's an 18" 72DL .325 pitch .050 gauge chain. I don't even have anything that runs .325 right now so whoever needs it let me know.

    Edit: it is used but still probably 90% or better shipping is on me Merry Christmas.

    I have a used set of these I would like to give away. I am not a big fan and they rarely get used. 2 up for grabs, if you can use both let me know.

    I use for 14" rounds and it is just short enough. Good up to 18" and possibly 20"... I can't remember.

    Here's a good one, who wants an ATV saw mount? I had bought 2 of these and gave one to Dex last year. But since I bought a UTV and not an ATV I don't need this one. I opened it and put it together but never mounted it to anything. I will take it apart as much as needed to ship. And I believe I can fit it in a medium flat rate box so shipping should not be more then $12. Anything over $12 I will cover on shipping. So here it is and I stole a pic from Dex of one mounted on his ATV. First person to ask for it gets it. Gone

    And if you are nice? I will throw in a mild used chain.. (rocked and dirted.. ;) j/k) lol

    Shipping is on me. . Claimed!
