    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    It burns great when dry. Just doesn't provide a lot of heat or last very long as mentioned. But it works OK for shoulder season and it is made of wood so I burn it when I get it for free.

    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    With help from Thing 1 today. Some of the cottonwood quarters were too big to consider fitting through the OWB door. (Thing 2 will get her turn to help tomorrow. )

    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    Mornin'. 25°F going to 36. Looking for a bit of a warm up this week. At least maybe the white stuff will be gone. I think I'll be assigned to Project: Tool Wall today. Good luck with your assignments, should you choose to accept them.

    12.5" wide tire on stock 7.5" wheels?

    Yeah, that should be an 18x8" wheel. Can check the cast marking on the back side to confirm. If you haven't found it yet, the tiresize.com website mentioned earlier has listings by diameter. Great resource I use often. Below is what is shown for 34" diameter for example. These are nominal sizes...

    12.5" wide tire on stock 7.5" wheels?

    What year and model? 35x12.50R18 tires are approved for 8.5-11" wide wheels. Lots of them running on 8" wheels, but 7.5" is a little narrow for me personally. (Actually 12.50 is wide for me... i like a tall skinny tire, like a 305/85R16) The good news is I think you probably have an 8" wheel...

    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    Generally, my rule is, "Was it made from wood?", and if the answer is yes, I'll burn it. But, I do like my neighbors, so RR ties are off limits. Plus, they would probably make my clothes smell funny.

    We could ask @Cowboy254 if you have 30 days to wait for a ruling when he catches up. I think Cowboy needs a faster horse...

    Last 2 truckloads of wood from my old new best friend's best neighbor. He did ask if I was still interested in more (of course I am.) He purchased an empty lot down the road from his house and there is a load of logs the developer has from clearing. Said he would get them for me if he can. 👍

    If Brett delivers it, I'll burn it! But I don't think he heads east too often with an empty load. Returning west, maybe.

    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    Got 2 loads yesterday from my old new best friend's best neighbor and probably get 2 more on Tuesday. It's cottonwood, but the guy cut/split everything into manageable pieces so I don't need to do anything. I got the rest of the tree from him last year and did have to cut some myself. And that...

    I went out this morning to find no rain, so I quick jumped back on the workbench project. And I now present to you: 100 drawers. Plus 30' of bench and tool wall above it all. I swear all that stuff wasn't on the bench last night...!

    Passing of AWOL

    I didn't know the man, but TONS of respect for the pine box. I'm sure that represents how he lived his life. RIP AWOL. Condolences to his family and friends.

    I'm having the same experience while getting the garage in order - found treasures!

    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    Got a text from one of my old new best friends yesterday - he split up some big rounds he had into manageable sizes pieces and asked if I wanted them. Of course I do, I already took the easy ones last year. He just made more easy stuff for me now. It's cottonwood, but I'm low on shoulder season...

    Scrounging up a few more "tongue and groove" boards for the tool wall this morning.

    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    Can I squeeze in a scrounging pic between cast iron posts? This is the rest of a decent sized maple that was removed at the neighbor's house last fall. I got most of it then, but stopped when hunting season hit and just got back to it a few days ago.

    Can someone write him up a summary so he's not confused about all of the scrounging thread lingo that has evolved over the years? @Cowboy254 where are you??

    Another "fng" saying hey.

    Welcome (back) almost 10 years to the day of the infamous scrounging thread start. I know what you mean about the easy chair - it sounds great... until that's about all you can do. I had my knee replaced almost 2 years ago and it didn't start off well. It's better now, but not as awesome as...

    Double check those addresses, folks

    Yes, possibility 3: customer wants a tree cut down on neighbors property. This happened a few years ago at the house I grew up in. They hired a company to cut a tree that they didn't own. The lady that did own it came home just after it came down. It was clearly in a landscaped area that didn't...
