    Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

    Definitely not cottonwood . And from what I’ve read and was told Tulip Poplar is actually liriodendron not really a poplar tree . Like GrizG said its milling properties are not usual . It cuts slower than white or red oak . Seems to bog the saw at times but it looks nice so far...

    I didn’t do it to the customer he did this to himself . Winched a car out of the mud on the parkway after being called by the county police . Owner wasn’t there his wife picked him up but was at the shop when I got the car back to the shop . I dropped the car and gave him the bill he refused...

    Have no idea where you get that from . I’ve negotiated with my DR about my deductible. I just had a plumber do a job for me and he negotiated a price . Everyone you posted there will negotiate. Crap I even negotiate at Home Depot . Got a $400 sink base for 325 .

    Started milling the tulip . So far I’m liking the wood made three cuts need to sharpen the chain. Think I need to buy another so I can switch them out during the milling

    Have to say the apple trees dulled the chains faster than usual . Was hard as a rock almost like cutting black locust

    I’m glad the soil around here is is sandy with pea gravel . There is a quarry down the road and the whole side of the mountain is sand
