Title: free firewood
Post by: wheelinguy on April 29, 2012, 08:21:42 AM
I might actually be getting some free firewood.  The local gun club has some trees they need removed, one of their members is a forester/logger.  He is going to put on a clinic on felling and proper chainsaw technique.  They said that they would drop the trees and block them to my desired length if I would come take them away.  It's only about two miles from the house and they estimate about 6 cord!   8)

At least two trees are out of the firing line, but actually if there are any saw logs I'm going to bring them to my brothers mill.  Unfortunatley I can't attend the class I won't be available at that time, always good to try and learn something new.
