    Welcome to the club. Lots of great folks here sharing knowledge and humor. I like the idea of of your box, shows your customers that you are honest, that goes a long way, especially since you are just starting out. We sell a little down here in GA, nothing on jrider or buZZsaw BRAD scale...we had about 10-11 cords ready in the fall, have about 2 1/2 cords left. Got to get busy again...lol...yes sir, it is an addiction...but fun....hope you continue to do well.

    Hey all,
    My name is Alicia. My father has been in the logging industry for 40 years or so. I have spent time learning bits from him, but am now his go to internet girl. Trying to find interest in a saw he has (McCulloch super pro 125). I dabble in wood working and I do custom wood burnings. Looking forward to meandering through all the amazing posts on this forum!
    Have a spectacular day! Happy New Year y’all!!

    Welcome again Alicia! When you were signing up I saw maple burl and it caught my eye. Definitely scan the site to get to know it and feel free to post what you've done with wood working in the hobby section. We have quite a few VERY talented members here that share the same interest. :yes:

    Haha already liking the forum! The maple Burl is a few slabs I have that I am finishing. The wood working was a small table I am burning, and I also burn smaller pictures on to an assortment of wood. Will post in the other forums though!

    Welcome Alicia, please post some pics of your wood work and custom wood burnings. I have a couple large black oak stumps/rounds and I’m looking to make some tables/stools out of and am looking for some ideas.

    Hey folks,

    My name is Matt. I recently discovered your forum and think I will fit in here. I have a small acreage and cabin in West Virginia where I spend most of my non-work time. I spend my work time in the triangle area of North Carolina. Lots of people giving away nice wood in the city, I spend a lot of my lunch breaks picking it up. I heat both my house in NC and my cabin with wood whenever I'm there. I also enjoy woodworking, hunting/fishing, and other outdoor activities such as rock/ice climbing, whitewater paddling, and mountain biking.

    Hope to learn a lot from these forums.

    Cheers!
