Thanks for the input!

Stihl or Husq. Online I'm just seeing mostly regular saws or electric/battery saws. I want gas but want to make sure it comes with the correct bar. Or do I have to buy the saw and then get a bar separate? I don't want to be swapping parts so would prefer a dedicated saw for carving. I will...

Thanks. I will try taking a pic of the trunk next week. Appreciate it!

Ha that's what I'm afraid of and hoping it isn't cotton wood. Is Tulip generally a heavy tree? This log was not near as heavy as a similar sized Oak tree.

Thanks for the info. The bark was really thick similar looking to cottonwood.

This tree came down with the Derecho storm in Cedar Rapids, Ia. It doesn't smell or look like the elm species I have cut.

Thank you. How % certain are you? Reading about it I believe it would be good wood for siding the interior of my garage. Would you agree?

Hope the pics are ok.

ATH: I looked up the website of the doctor you found on your search. That is exactly the type of provider I would go with. You should know if he is going to help you within 3 visits or so. Sometimes it takes that 2nd and 3rd visit to narrow down the problems. Sometimes the area of pain...

No most Chiropractor don't do soft tissue type treatments. I would say the majority do same thing for everyone that walks in the door. Find a Chiro with a larger skill set. And yes ART is Active Release Technique. They do have a provider search on the forums. This won't guarantee you find...

I handed my bar off to my son on Sunday.It's supposed to be below zero all weekend, but I want to try working on this giant Derecho oak before the city burns it. Some may argue, but he says it'ss actually worse to start with a small bit first because this puts all of the pressure on the outer...

I am a Chiropractor and also certified in Acupuncture. First advice is nobody can diagnose you online. I treat your type of symptoms in all age groups for a living. My clinic always ends up with the tough cases instead of just the regular back or neck pain. The potential causes of your problem...

Made this out of a Hickory that was struck by lightening. It was my son's wedding present. I definitely some things dealing with the epoxy and drying wood properly. I made a neat epoxy river head board out of the same tree that warped and was ruined. I never dried any of the slabs properly...

Edit: The 5 dots is what you call the rivet ring correct?. I just want to double check before I turn the boy lose. Thanks Bob that is what I was looking for. My son drilled my 42" bar, but I had him about 6" from the end. He is very good with fabricating, I just needed to know how far towards...

I'm asking where is the furthest spot on the bar I can drill the hole without messing with the sprocket

Can any tech person put an x where I need to drill tip for my threaded rod homemade mill? Maybe mark an x for the spot? I am assuming the "X" that is on the nose isn't there for the purpose of drilling. I am not sure where the best place is to drill a 3/8" hole.

Definitely looks like maple to me. Did you officially find out?

What did you find out? My guess was maple but I normally don't have much trouble splitting it.

Ok I took 3 more pics today. Hope this shows better.

Only other pic I have. I can take more Saturday possibly if this pic doesn't help.
