    A fun one! Hopefully it can be done by another member! Shoot I had a couple loads of oak that I for sure wanted to know what they weighed.....heavy.

    bushpilot I'm working on cutting up some big sugar maple and Oak is pretty close in weight. I also based the guess off of size of the the trailer since I have a small trailer and know it's capacity. Last factor is that the oak didn't look seasoned. Oak takes a long time time to season.I
    ole Thanks for doing the contest. Had fun and was exciting to see the results!

    Well it looks like there won’t be a round two wood weight contest. The gravel pit has been locked up for the last two days.
    They must have moved to another location. I don’t have much more oak to haul in
