    Only thing that would've made it better is if they cut it to length :saw:

    Really not bad at all. I used the isocore, and if they wouldn’t crack the back of the isocore with the back of another maul.

    I cut them to size or in half first.

    It sure is.. much easier going than that big trunk I was working a the pool. I am running low on permissible places to stack. These might get piled behind another stack of oak. It might be a three year wait for them, but at least they won’t rot.

    I can't claim full membership in the Car Hoarders Club yet, but I'm making baby steps.

    Realizing Memorial Day was upon us and I still had room in my racks, I had a mild panic attack thinking of the coming bugs and heat. I jumped in the station wagon, loaded it with a wheelbarrow, saw, and other important cargo, and headed out to schlep the last of my oak rounds out to the road where at least I can now pick them up at my leisure without busting my way through the brush to get them.

    Driving home I made a mental note to look into the car's tow rating and getting a hitch installed.

    Nice job. But it looks like your supervisor will need a bath.

    And I thought he was very happy going in the pond. We had one that looked just like him, his name was bear. The only rule he had was he couldn’t go on the bed after he’s been swamping!!

    Mike is that the red maple that we thought was Norway maple that turned into ash? Nice stuff regardless.

    I'd have loaded more, but I was running out of energy.
