    I've got some white oak and chestnut oak dead/dying on the stump that I want to get milled this spring/summer. If anyone wants to help me fell and buck some trees, I would love any help you can give.

    Shawn, I would love to get you out here to help me out. I've got about 1-2 dozen dead chestnut oaks that need to be dropped and bucked for milling. It's way more than I can handle. I can pay in beer and/or lumber.

    I'm not worthy........

    I had approximately 2,000bd ft of poplar and oak at one time, traded it all off.....

    Still have around 400bd ft of premium black Walnut from a biggin I took down many years ago, as well as several nice curly maple boards from two years back, and a stack of America elm and really nice hackberry that we recently took down. And a stack of spruce ( approx 1000bd ft).

    I should get some pics of blacksmith's cousins hoard, alot of which came from logs we took down. It's unreal.....

    It seems to be a disease after you get a sawmill what you dont use for firewood you end up making piles of boards and the only project you ever get to is making boards to build a bigger shed to stack more boards in:loco: :crazy:

    Working on putting some more oaks on the ground for lumber and firewood. Dropped a nice one today, 26" dbh. BTW, that's a 32" bar. Obviously, the butt flair was still file.jpeg pretty big even after I trimmed the buttresses off.

    Nice saw!! Some extra bananas in that one eh? :banana::saw::saw:

    Wish I had me some oak like that. :drool: I’ve been making some mission-style furniture lately but I’ve had to substitute stained ash for the quartersawn oak.

    You planning to QS that one?
