>Thats what you call wood when you don't know what it is. Seriously though I have never heard of lump fir. It sounds like breakfast table talk at the local diner. Coffee with eggs and bacon, maybe some grits if you like, and the bull just swirls around in waves. A very pleasant experience.
one lump or two?

Remember one job site (small shopping center)some 30 years ago we were at the site development stage and block layers were just coming off the footers. We had an old Ford pick-up which was the mud truck, used to transport drums of water and supplies for the mortar mixers. It was very hard to start and usually needed a jump. We had one laborer who was a bit too lazy to get the cables and figured he would hitch up a dump truck to the mud truck and pull it in gear to start the engine. Trouble was it didn't dawn on him that he needed a driver in the mud truck. Made a comical sight when the mud truck fired up, tied to the dump with no driver!
