Just the other day a friend of mine began working part-time for an excavator and said he had some oak he had to pay to dump. I told him I'd save him some money if he'd "dump" it on my neighbor's farm. No room at my place. He did just that yesterday. Today my neighbor and I bucked the logs and split the load. Looks like we each get a little better than half a cord of nice northern red oak. Plus one sassafras log for start up.
Top left image is what was delivered on a flat bed truck that had a hard time dumping the logs since they were a bit crossed up.
The middle image is some of the bigger rounds my saw had to tackle. My bar is 24".
The far right image is what we started to load into the bed of the pickup. Too bad my house is a couple hundred feet away from the farm.
Bottom image is my truck and my neighbor's loaded with oak and ready to be transported home. There are still some rounds on the ground we can get tomorrow.
