The only hoarding I do these days is for the easiest pickings...this qualified. Stacked roadside, right around the corner from my house. He offered me more stacked in his driveway, too. The only drawback is, he cut it wicked short. But, beggars can't be choosers. Two car loads.
I think I'll stack it in the shed, once it's split. My grandson & I will use M2theB's little electric splitter.
Glad to see that somebody is still getting easy pickings. All my easy pick scrounges are falling through at the last minute!
I use the shorts and Uglies for shoulder season! What I've started burn now. Nice haul Molly, BTU's is BTU's!
Here is my first grab in a while.. pretty meek, but the soft wood was harder than the hard wood. I’ve stopped by the “honey dump” a handful of times since the pandemic, but the results have been a shadow of what it used to be. I don’t know if landscapers be chipping, or if they selling their own cordage.
I happened upon this little score walking my son home from school. Don’t take away my car hoarding card for using the wife’s mini van. I needed to go big AND go home. I even got it piled next to an empty spot right as the sun was going down.
X2. I love to get pieces like that... I put 1 18" split on the bottom back and stacked it with chunks last night
I should have grabbed a pic of the stem on this beast. They must have had a crane in for it for the 16 wheeler flatbed was looking about as overloaded as my van. They are taking a smaller one down tomorrow.. we’ll see how my back is doing, as it has been a while since I’ve hefted some green red oak like this.
