I'm surprised you paid that much for it lol.
Great deal man, good to make a couple extra, especially with everything going on.

I know some here have mixed feelings on Facebook, but I get almost all of my scrounged wood off of there, then resell it back on marketplace. Fun to make some cash on the side.
Also, give credit where credit is due to the fellows here. I started out with a Husky 41(Poulan) when I first joined knowing little about saws or firewood. I've learned a lot from my short time here and I soak up all the information like a sponge!

Why is someone buying green oak this time of year?
He’s the only customer I sell to who buys green. He stacks and rotates his wood on his racks to burn in his fireplace.
I posted the dried maple on a community yard sale page on FB, someone wanted it within minutes. This lady ordered from three different suppliers, each time there was an issue or cancellation.
Supply and demand this time of year.
Maybe he wants to smoke out his neighbors.
Scrounged up a Christmas tree off the property this weekend for the 2nd year in a row. Have several more nice ones but may need a few more years to grow since they are only 6-7'. This one is between 10-11'. I've planted at least 150 seedlings and transplants over the past few years with this in mind - some are for long term screen and some didn't make it. Should still have enough to choose from and getting more to plant in the spring.
The Mini-Mac 6 got the call to cut it down. It actually looks pretty decent after I cleaned it up just a bit since I pulled it out a few weeks ago after a decade (or more) of storage.

No, he pulls dry stuff from one of his 4-5 other racks that I filled, and puts this out to season for a year or two. Here’s a feel good pic of his pup in front of the fire with previous wood I supplied.
City people are funny.
Is this Lickety Split worth $100 with a bad cylinder that “just needs seals” Or is it scrap?
@ Haywire, next time I drop off, I’ll show you his setup.
Sounds good.
If is close looks promising for $100
Great wood there that is much easier to find here than hickory.Its black Locust.
You know I'm looking for some "parts".
I moved around 23 bucket loads today .
21 were gravel
, and two were locust .
I have a couple more of locust that's already cut up and probably 8 more loads to cut(to finish the ones currently down), lot's of bigger wood so it's harder to get the bucket full like this. Still need to move a couple hundred of the gravel
.
If you look past the tractor to the left you can see where I'm pulling all the gravel fill from.

And it's pretty east to work with other than the poison ivy on a lot of it
.We have a couple(literally) hickory on our property, but I don't often get it. About 6yrs ago my BIL had 26 full cord of hickory in his basement, he said you could heard the beetles munching on it when he was down there filling the stove
.
Last day off work for a wile, didnt get any scrounging in but I got some shelves up. Sorry for the crappy lighting. That's next on the list
