[QUOTE="Wood Doctor, post: 1148495, member: 20385"] I was trying to estimate the weight and volume of the notch alone. And, assuming they kept it one piece, they would have to drag it out with chains and/or cables and a strong tractor--maybe a team of mules back then. Yeah, that big green notch may have weighed 17.5 tons--7 to 8 cords? So, yes, heat the whole house gfor a year with that. Redwood's not the best firewood and not very dense, but the tree was probably alive, so it weighed a bunch. :dizzy: [/QUOTE]
