BIG Wood picture contest... win big prizes!

[Section VIII]

Not nearly as big as some of the trees others have posted but I think it's pretty impressive since I used my 450P for 99% of this job (still working to this day). Those are my boots and gloves. My youngest is posing for me after the job was 80% complete. All in all, I started 09 Mar 2013 and ended 29 Nov 2013. Took that long because I was using the 450P, wedge(s) and sledge, and that X27.

....and working on the project mostly on the weekends.

http://Not very large compared to some of your wood I've seen here, but here is a large(for our area)standing dead Red Elm I took down this morning. Will use this as a GTG log for our gathering this spring. If we make cookies out of it I won't have to split the stringy stuff!

The camera phone lenses must have been fogged over from my warm short pocket on that first photo. Rats! Tried to get thus pic up first. Technology and me don't always get along!

 

[Ronaldo]

And this pic should have been loaded on my second reply. Arrrrrgh.

It's hard to find better burning wood than red elm. The dead ones seem to shed their bark.

And this pic should have been loaded on my second reply. Arrrrrgh.

What size Kubota is that you have ?? I see it has the self leveling loader on it. We have a 7040 they are great machines.

Almost forgot to add this one. This is the butt of the beech I felled by the stone wall. It's all burled and going to a wood turner...er.. once I get a 281 and spend the day hacking it up that is:

Nice work!

Thank you

I logged a USFS seasonal cabin area, took mostly old growth hazard trees. Got dicey, powerlines, water systems, other trees and structures. Requirements meant some planning, I left nothing but stumps.

I'm usually taking pictures at GTGs - no selfies! This is one a friend took of me doing some storm damage cleanup in Detroit (August, 2014).
