Love the picture, his smile say's it all!!:clap:

Story of the kids, We took in our little girl when she was 1 year old from a local children and youth service center. When we got her we hoped it would lead to adoption, but then the parents got into more trouble and then the mother found out she was pregnant again and we were asked if we would...

I usually am just lurking on here , but thought I am going to post this because I am so darn proud. Last week my wife and I finished the adoption of 2 adorable little kids. Aaliyah is almost 3 and her brother Grant is 1 1/2 years old. Every time I open the stove door they both come over and see...

Use 2 x 6 walls with spray in foam insulation, then put 1/2" or 1" styrafoam on the outside then osb wall sheeting. It will increase R - value some for you.:clap:

NEWSWANGER Crane service, from Lancaster County or Farmersville crane from Lancaster county also. Both have experiance with tree work and and are very easy to work with. Like was said before try and schedule a few jobs in the same day to pick apart then go back later and finish the clean-up...

A 35 year old father of 5 young adopted children was killed last week near Longwood Pa. I never did see a news article about this but it was a Tree company from Lancaster county Pa just down the road from me. 3 man crew doing some large removals and had most of the "difficult" trees done when...

Something I found out by accident, is baby wipes. i have two kids in diapers and we always have plenty around. Works good even on the real thick stuff. If that fails then a light scrape with a razor blade.

I agree, it is apple and can be tuff to split. The apple i have burned burns very well but it seems like I get alot of ash from it if the fire is choked down. Great score for free wood.:clap:

757 here, I bought it to replace my trashed 046 stihl. Good saw for all the more I run it. If I ever went back to fulltime timber cutting I would get another stihl and keep the 757 as a backup. Several years ago I had a 488, loved that saw, but had to let it go to get some $$$. Young and dunb I...

Had a fire on Monday afternoon and Monday night, Put a few pcs in on Tuesday morning then let burn out. It was'nt to bad out, but 4 of the 5 of us are fighting nasty colds and a nice fire to sit beside always seem to help.

YEP, I also heard that it is hardley worth cutting saw logs right. The only bright spot it seems is that at least in my neck of the woods, pulp logs are going up in price because there is not much logging, so not many cull logs being cut for pulp. I went past a mill that runs softwood through a...

Thank's for chimming in guy's. It really is a good gig to get ......IF you can get a hold of the wood he needs. I mean I can drop it off just about anytime of the day or night except on Sunday. In the 5 years I've been selling to him never a single complaint. And as far as payment goes I always...

I used to sell wood to a BBQ store here in South East Pa, and as of this spring I am not doing because of time constaints and some difficulty finding the different types of wood they need. The owner of the store is a very good friend of mine and is a very honest, upstanding guy. He is in...

If ther is a field is someone farming it? If so they may have contact info for you or they may be able to authorize firewood cutting. :greenchainsaw:

I've never heard that it is hard to burn but an old timer friend of mine swears it is bad luck to burn a tree hit by lightning. He is so scared by this that any tree on his wood lot that gets hit he will cut down and drag way back in or bury it so no one else will get it to burn.:dizzy:

At a large nursery/landscape supply center near my place they get large quantities of wood in bulk and it comes on a semi but in a dump trailer. The kind used for demo work real heavy duty. I don't have an idea of how many cords they bring in at a time but the trailers are definatley not full as...

If I remember correct dormant oil is a dilluted coating that you sray on trees to smother any egg sacks or larvae . It is best used in late winter early spring before buds are on the tree and before insects become active. It is used as a preventive spray for insects.

First year burning, went through about 7 cords was only planning on 5 or 6 but we made it. Only used about 100 gallons of oil. Wish I would of bought the next size bigger stove. I have a regency medium size and the door opening is a little small. The good thing with the door being smaller I...

Pre-qualify dealers more, Here the local hardware, paint, appliance, household goods etc. etc. store is the local dealer. The store seems to think if they can put a sign out front and a few saws on the shelf that they are golden. What a joke!:dizzy:

I see your in PA so check out the Lancaster farming paper if you can. There are several ads from guys who buy that stuff and mill it for flooring or re-use the timbers for barn restoration. Please Please do not make firewwod out of it.
