A guy I know stopped in this morning and was wondering if I would be interested in some oak firewood. Thought this was my lucky day so I headed out this afternoon to do some cutting. Got a little surprise when I got there. He had topped a downed oak tree and left the bottom 20 feet of it. This thing is huge and all I could think was how big of a stack of wood that I would end up with IF I could cut and split it. Just this spring I purchased my ODW so I don't have an assortment of saws, actually only one A Husky 455 Rancher with a 20 inch bar. It has cut everything that I have thrown at it but I am afraid that it has met its match. I took a couple of pictures but I don't think that they are going to be a lot of help. You can see my tape in the picture but you can't read it so I will tell you what it measures. From the ground to the top it is just short of seven Feet, and at the thickest point farther back it is about 4 foot across. The Aspen tree guy did cut it in half so there are 2 ten foot sections. Is this thing just to big to mess with? Am I a lame brain to even consider this? Would anyone on this board even give this a second glance if all you had to throw at it is my 20 inch bar? If by chance there is someone as dumb as me that would try this how would you go about getting it cut up. I have a 35 ton Speeco splitter so splitting is not a problem if it could be cut down to manageable pieces. Would welcome any thought that anyone might have either for trying to saw it or you must have been dropped on your head when you were born.149.jpg149.jpg
