Can't believe the ginger has passed, it had to be something sudden, just DM'd with him last week on FB about a bar he sent me, had the words Hort Wanker painted on it..haha. RIP John.

Welcome aboard the nuthouse, as a homeowner, I would recommend the MS 261CM, I cut a lot of clean up and firewood and this is probably my most used saw.

Pignut Hickory?

Looks like cottonwood to me.

Red Beard Saws is one, squarefile is a member there also, if you are a member, just post the question asking for velocity stack builders and sellers. Ask @JeremiahJohnson he'll point you in the right direction. I don't think squarefile has been on here (AS) for a couple years. Edit: pretty sure...

Several guys make them here. https://www.facebook.com/groups/415662708518445/

This is the ad that was posted, there's something about it on the "chainsaw repair" web page.

I realize what they say they are offering, I am telling you 2 people that ordered this "deal", received what I had shown a picture of.

This is what people have been receiving.......

You had great replies, and this is your response? If you don't see how this is interpreted as rude and condescending, then I don't know what to tell ya, welcome to the site and good luck with your saw.

I would also advise, that if you feel uncomfortable with this tree, don't attempt it. There is a lot of pent up forces in that tree. I am a farmer hack, so I would attempt to pull the top over and away from the tree it is leaning on with a tractor.

That bark appearance looks like 4 different trees that grow on my property. Basswood (it's not), Poplar (it's not), Ash and Hickory. I have never seen a maple with that type of bark here. I'd guess Hickory.

Well then, it is Silver Maple!

Sugar Maple?

Eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides)

Siberian Elm

You're right, infested was a poor choice of words, there are two spots where woodpeckers have been working.

Tree is infested with ants, the sapsucker holes are quite apparent. Does "appear" to be a maple, whether it is a hard maple or a box elder, we can't determine with these pics.
