Adds here on CL for Red Fir…$500/cordWhen I need to go shopping in the big city, I go to Baraboo. I'm about 35 miles west of you and am also harvesting dead ash. I've processed over 60 trees and have lots more to cut. I get $250 per full cord delivered. And I am familiar with rocks in the woods.
ez 3/4 cord... all cut up in chunks. i know the guy, mite ask him tomorrow what kind of wood is it. hinted of being oak! just sitting on street curb one place i seen on my evening bike ride... put out today! and another could be couple cords. cut down abig pecan. 24-30" diam trunk, i'd say off hand. it did make a mess of the street there at those 4 houses each season. i only seen it in the dark, street light but the branches are many and lots of cut -n -stack sized firewood. or cooking wood. next to all that is the trunk!
i should hope knot!!!Garbage bug infested pallets I wouldn’t even bring it into the house
Food…..Was that pig always planned as a pet or was it planned food when you started?

Pigs are very friendly and make good pets if a person is into that sort of thing.Food…..
well, over in VN they eat dogs... and some of the local texmex food trucks have been thot to use the latter on their tacos!!Pigs are very friendly and make good pets if a person is into that sort of thing.
We let a few of our meat pigs roam around the place in the fall to clean up the acorns.
I think everyone should have pet pigs, because who wants to eat dogs & cats when things get tough....lol
Grade 8 is very stout in tension, not so much in shear. My old home built that would not shear through a knot broke 2 of them. I can't recall where I used them as it was some 40 years ago.noone said they were Grade 8's! lol
For something different we were out by the back "fence" cutting down, bucking, and splitting dead ash today.

Couldn't get the mower and trailer any further, steep uphill. We're working past the corner in the distance, roughing out a woods/CC ski trail as we go. NOT hand carrying logs down snow covered hillsides. Mebby put chains on the mower tires?

Tomorrow I'll try with the skidsteer. WAY more ash than I will ever get to waiting out there.
sorry SR, i misread your post! ~You lost me with that answer...

You were what? Like in your 50's when that tree started growing. Love the 261. Should really wake up after 8-10 tanks.Broke in this new 261 stihl on the smaller stuff… this is a huge oak and i’m not even close to cutting the trunk which over 3 feet across. the timberjack proved to be priceless as under that grass is gravel and gravel and chains don’t do so well.
