It belongs to my unckle . He has lots of stuff there . I just go out there to cut the wood and trees that has fell down ( yeppie ! lol )

Looks like you are off to a good start, just go out and have some fun. Make some fliers to put up in your local stores and the customers should come in no time. I was suprised to find out how many people wanted wood in my area. If you are close to a city the better, prices go up because wood is harder to come by. Good luck and keep the pics comin.

Yes, get ahold of some local tree services to get them to drop off wood to your lot. Do you get your wood for free right now?

I could miss it by a year one way or the other, but the first 2 pic's looks to be a 1952 Chevy 5 window. My favorite.

I could have fun for days at your uncle's farm.
Be sure and cut those trees so they don't fall on any of those treasures.

That would make a pretty cool delivery/parade/advertising/tax deduction truck. A real eye catcher all fixed up.

How can it be a tax deduction, Red ?

**redprospector** · 04-02-2007, 09:04 PM

Fix it up all pretty, with wood side boards with your business name all over them. Put it in a few parades, take it to the fair, park it in places it can be noticed. It's advertising at it's finest.

It's a business expense. Do you do your own taxes?

good luck with the splitter and the saw. hopefully it will turn a few bucks for you . shouldn't have any problems selling firewood people can't get enough when it gets cold out.

I am going to sell mostly hard woods but I usually get most of it on the side of the road and lots that have been cleared.I got some cherry and walnut last week ,about 3-4 truck loads ,untill it got too dark ... hahah .
