Got Wood? *LINK*

>I'm having a much better day than Martha ...

Heard chainsaws in the neighborhood yesterday and discovered my neighbors taking out this large Black Acacia ~ 30" dbh.

My motto is that a turner can NEVER have too much wood (although my friends wonder what I'm going to do with it all). I just wish I had a log-loader, more room, a larger chain-bar!!!

Hopefully the picture will show, otherwise here's the link to Molly's web site where she allows picture posting (thanks Molly!).

Great haul, looks like some beautiful wood.

By the way, you can never have too much wood and Wood is cheaper than psychiatry.

Could have saved you a bunch, though. Therepy ain't been invented/discovered yet that'll cure this variant of OCD . . .

Strange name you got there, e. No relation to "M" are you?

>Yea Molly, I too love the sounds of chain saws and bad wind storms; too bad we don't get ice storms here (aren't i a devil ).

Gary, I agree wood is SO MUCH BETTER than psychiatry!

And yes, I do try to tuck my logs in, but more during the day (70F here this week-gloat gloat);I trying to slow down the rate of dehydration and pith cracking until I get to them with a chainsaw next week.

the funny part of this story is that i was feeling ill on friday, that is until i heard the sounds of a chainsaw and then suddenly, i didn't feel so bad ... i am a devel!
