    Well I'll be darned..... that greatly reduces the cost of the swap! What size should I get if I want to run a 16" bar? 7?

    Thanks. Square. If anyone has an extra laying around collecting dust, I'd be a buyer at the GTG

    I burned about 3.5 ton last year (bad winter), the 2 years previous I only burned about 2 ton.

    When I burned pellets alone, it was 4-4.5; ton a year.

    But 2-3 ton and 3 cord of wood is an average year.

    No, but I am working on getting something. .

    May not pan out with all the other stuff I still have to do. But I am trying to buy a large log from my Amish Neighbor.

    Too bad y'all aren't near me I could deliver some 30" pine logso_O as long as you had a way to unload off my trailer. Heck what am i talking about...id deliver in my friends dump truck , and dump it onto some stringers :)

    I know a few people in the wood biz:)

    Probably could hook us up with some cull logs from the hardwood wood yard.

    Ok... Went next door..

    I got a 10' long by 18"-20" log from my neighbor. Is that big enough Scotty Overkill for what you needed to do?

    I am gonna cut down the 4 ash trees in the tree line tomorrow and have them almost full length so some people can cut "firewood".

    The Cants are also coming tomorrow (they are busy right now. Their brother is getting married on Sat/next door. So they are cleaning up).

    I stopped at the local Market and she asked if I could get a definite count (or close) on who wanted what steak? Strip or Ribeye..

    I got this so far

    Ribeye's

    Myself

    Strip

    Please reply if you can on what you want.

    Thanks

    And the Ribeye's were only $10.99 a lb. I thought it was $12.99. I forgot to ask on the Strip, but they are generally $1-2 cheaper. They are thick cut (over an inch on both cuts of meat).

    I'm so pumped up. To bad I have to weed wack and cut grass.. :(

    It's nit like I have a forest.

    99%: of the cutting will be Cants. This was known from the start.
