What did you accomplish today?

[curious2garden]

Is it red oak? I usually know my trees pretty good but that has me "stumped"....lol I was thinking maple...the dark center is throwing me...we have no oak that looks like that here.

I have been loving my propane fireplace, but I just got a letter from the co-op saying due to Corona prices are skyrocketing...Of course they are

I bought some spendy Red Oak to do a repair on a desk. I found hubby using the rest of it for crap, sigh...... I also have to check out why my drill press table is chattering after he used it to fuck with my quality left overs.

Beautiful. That large one in the center looks like a candidate for your mill

It’s water oak, I’ve sawn it before and it’s not very stable, however it’s also possible to get some pretty good quarter sawn boards if you get lucky.

I’ve been sawing a bunch of pine lately, if I think about it on Saturday I’ll get some pics. It’s going to be a new hay barn with batten board siding.

Hard Wood!

Yeah that’s what she said.

I always thought it was in the red oak family but my son became quite the expert on tree identification in high school and informed me I was wrong. Turns out it’s in the white oak family.

The price of propane was one of the most important factors when I decided to invest in wood heat. I haven’t had to buy any since installing the wood stove. I’m just lucky I have a friend who is a tree surgeon and gives me wood for free and delivers too or it would be a little less fun.

Can you just tarp it?

That would get shredded even easier. The wind rips through here bro.
Gonna either use it for a light depp here soon or order the hella expensive thicker pvc replacement cover.

I picked up one of the silver tarps, it has lasted a lot longer than most.

What I need to do is put it somewhere a little more protected. Right now it isn’t at all.

The carport did me good. When I had nothing but a trailer out here it was invaluable. But it also kept me up at night when the wind was blowing . Was like a parachute opening up over and over again. Hella loud lol. Won’t miss that part!

remember when I went on a mushroom trip, drew a picture of joe exotic, had said picture talk to me and tell me to make a seed company?
Well fuck you tiger King.
I’m literally afraid to pick up my phone because it’s all orders and questions and requestions and grow advice on how to help them and why does my plant look yellow like Phil’s clones? Etc.
From 6am - midnight I don’t stop moving.
Again, eat a dick joe tiger.
