My experience, mills won't buy walnut. They usually need to saw a whole lot of wood, to sell it in wholesale form. A log here or there would just take up space and get in the way. I have had a couple "walnut buyers" out and they want veneer logs, which are pretty rare. On the other hand, I...

"its the government tax that keeps on taxing companies to the point they have to leave America and look for other places to conduct their business." Actually, the US has some of the lowest corporate tax rates in the world. Many even end up with "negative" tax when you factor in everything...

I hear this logic/story all the time. Usually from the pro-union crowd. Hey maybe we need a wood cutters union! We can all charge $50 an hour to cut and stack wood. Of course then we have to pay a monthly fee for management representation, and into the medical program for retirees, into the...

I can split wood faster with mauls than that guy. I hire 3 young guys and put them to work.

There is a wood cutter up here that runs a 394 with a 24" bar. He saw my 50" bar and said it was not necessary and a waste. He said he could cut any log up that I could, just by going around to the other side. I agreed, but then said, "yeah, but I don't have to walk around to the other side"...

I can believe the whole "first time cutting, seven cords.." My buddy has burned wood for 20 years, but has it all delivered so never runs a saw. His son just got out of the Marines, and bought a house that has a OWB. The couple cords that were piled up at the house sure didn't last long...

The first person that complains about the heat gets throat punched! Burned through the years wood 2 weeks ago. Been pulling in some of next years to get by that is piled at the edge of the yard. It is kinda green, and maple. Smells like cat piss and burns for crap. Grabbed boy wonder and...

Yeah that little steiner looks awesome. Finding a current 4wd in that size is near impossible unless you want to drop 10 grand. I ran a snow blower this winter on an ariens and would have traded my left cahone for 4wd. Looks like it has power lift as well. What years were those made? Nice...

Le verrrrrr age! That'd move a log for ya.

Has a built in 2-4-6-8 way wedge. No need to stop and change, just rotate around to the size you want.

Probably suffocated them. Trees bring in oxygen through their roots. Cover them up with too much dirt, or in your case underwater, and they will die off quite soon.

reminds me of watchin my grampa dig swimming pools with a backhoe. No thought to what your doing, movements just flow through with what you want to happen. That is one heckuva machine too.

race chain, ok. But a nascar engine won't work on a farm truck for very long. The second part of my post was directed towards the OP.

If my chain looked like, I would have thrown it away long ago. Holy cow where'd your chain go?! Find someone near you who sharpens chain really well. Pick up a few of their favorite beverages of choice. Go for a visit and watch and listen how they sharpen chains. Pick up some good habits...

"Trying to sell them is like going on match.com to find a date and listing aids and leprosy as diseases you currently are infected with." Small chippers are HOT items. I looked for a couple years for one, they maintain their price and have no trouble selling. When I upgraded later I had...

What can you do on: A. swapping that to a 50 gauge bar. B. Selling power head only. shipping to 49327.

Somebody wanna tell this guy the site is fixed? Always liked his posts about firewoodin in the green isle. And it is St. Patricks day!

There are a lot of them out there, both stihl and husky. Some sellers are calling them "Aftermarket". They dont use the trade names, but use 372, 046 etc.

I own/manage 5 rental house, plus my house and a cottage. Copper sulfate in the drains, 2x a year. You can pick it up at farm stores or co-ops. Keeps the roots out of the drain lines and the tank. Yes roots keep growing, even years later.
