Usually only cut ash but this stuff was down and easy to access so why not. Whatever I don't salvage will get pushed into a pile and burned.

The grapple is one of the accessories the loader mfg. offers for their loader, along with the pallet forks and many other tools...
canto, as I had pushed the forks together, I could have just picked up one end of the round and made the second cut, it was just safer to sit it down to work on it so it didn't roll onto some one.
With the forks pushed together, I have no problem moving stones/rocks, I do a fair amount of that too,
Sounds like you have something that works for you too...

Building a wood shed, right?

It's been a while ago now, but I milled a big pine into 2x12's for a customer friend and ran the load over to him,
Actually, I milled several pines for him, this was just one of them...

What is OSB going for in your neck of the woods? Last time I priced out 1/2", it was $23 a sheet. My folks visited and my Dad about **** when he saw the prices, was around $9 a sheet at the time in Maine. For a while plywood was cheaper, I did the roof on my 16x20 shed in 1/2" ply that was $18/sheet while OSB was $22.
I'm a contractor, we're building a master suite On top of a 2 car garage. I'm taking the ceiling joists and rafters to build my wood shed out of. I'm cheap so I figured instead of taking up space in the dumpster and tossing it I could kill 2 birds with one stone.
OSB is nuts, I paid $18 a sheet, that's discounted through the bid room at Home Depot. Originally it's $24 a sheet. I picked this up because it wouldn't fit on the truck with the rest of the **** I ordered.
How about the load before the load? Headed to my brother's to clean up more blow downs from hurricane Sandy way back when. Gonna try bringing home 12' lengths this time around since all my slaves, I mean helpers, have left home.

Another load of hemlock. Got about 5" now.
This load is going a couple doors down to my neighbor, he ordered 3 cord this year, this is cord number 2. Only have about 5 cord left, Joe.

I am sorry if I missed a previous post. Are you milling this with CSM or band saw?

Bandmill. No way I'd tackle this much oak milling with a chainsaw. I'm not man enough for that.

STL firewood, I bought a 130 Woodland Mills and was thinking of cutting ash and poplar bunks for loading machinery for a couple of local companies. Still have to look into the border issue though, might have to be kiln dried and I'm not interested in that head ache. Going to cut short beams flooring for barn floors too whenever I get the time.
Most companies here are using softwood for bunks though so we'll have to see what we can sell. I have access to ash and poplar mostly.
