Have 2 thirty foot oak treed

:jawdrop:

Wow! How do you get an oak treed? And two of them!!! It must have been a pretty big dog to run them oaks up a tree, I'm tellin' ya! Wonder what kind of tree they climbed up? I didn't know oaks could climb!

ready to fall about two foot around and dogwood .

Hmmm. That must be a local slang expression. I guess he means those oaks only climbed a couple of feet, so they won't fall very far, but I just can't figure out the "around and dogwood" part.....

Tell me what a big "Train saw" is?

Oh, that's easy, Mountain Gal! That's one of them big saws they carry on trains, so they can clear the tracks if a tree falls across them. They run off the engine's steam system.

Can't imagine why he'd insist on using one of those. It's going to be pretty hard to find one, since they stopped making them a long, long time ago.

And where are you going to get the steam to run the thing?

I think the guy's loco, myself.

Best craigs list ad I went to look at was a "cigar tree" and it was allover the house next door, a fence and his garage. it stood at least 80' had side limbs that were close to 18" or more. You can have it all free if you take it down! I told him you need an arborist with equipment for that. He said the $1500 they asked was a rip off and he would find somebody who will do it for free.

free horse in return for cutting down trees!?
should i go cut these trees down for the horse, can i sell a horse?

Tree Removel for Horse -
I need 3 or 4 trees removed (died over the winter), tallest about 25ft, it is an old oak. You can keep the firewood. In addition to the wood, I will give you a 10yo, Paint horse. She has had excellent western pleasure training. We have too many horses and need to downsize. So our downsizing, is a win-win for you. Nice western pleasure horse and fire work.

That's a keeper around here(if the wood is still solid). What we usually have are old barns/corn cribs that are already leaning, roofs caved in etc.

Any NH members need a super-split?

I just saw this on Craigslist, an electric super split, i've used one, and they work the mutts nutts.
This IS NOT mine, I'm just giving a heads up to the firewood crowd here.

Kinda mis-leading at best, and deceptive at worst (like many craiglist)

Ad sez
They have a website: http://supersplit.com/ where they sell a similar electric model for $2330. 603-312-2142.

BUTTTT
the brand new "similar" model is 1 (one) full horsepower versus the 1/2 (one half) horsepower the Craigslist clown is trying to get a sucker for.

Another "clue":
The "similar" 1/2 hp model he is trying to unload is no longer manufactured or sold by Supersplit

It's a good deal at $975, the 1/2 hp is fine. My friends exact same thing works fantastic. If I didn't already have a nice splitter, I'd go buy this without a second thought. Nice to be able to hear the birds sing while ya split.

All the guy is worried about is that it don't fall on HIS house.

I have pine and aspen trees ready for you to cut up and haul. This is a great value for burning in an outdoor unit. $15 per face cord--if you get 10 or more chords, price is only $10 per face cord. First responder gets wood closest to road.
If you want maple and beech hardwood, $25 per face cord--if you buy 8 chords, you get two cords free. You cut down tree and remove wood.
Firewood is located about 15 miles west of Traverse City.
