Mmmmm crotch wood.....

Yeah I was thinking about how much that first 10' - 12' would weight. I'm not tying it off to my jeep lol definitely getting a machine over here if we do take it down. This would be the only mill I've found that might work...

Healthy. Some dead branches but mostly ones that don't get much light. Or storm damage.

Around here you can have mills cut your logs... It use to be $50 per 1,000 board foot...but that was a few decades ago :lol: You can pay someone to truck them for you too. In my younger days I wanted to build a house that way, but never did.

Mills are leery of trees that come out of yards though, or on fence lines...metal grown in the trees does a number on a sawblade.

I can get it dropped....I'd need to chip the crap (pulp sucks here right now everyone needs lumber) Or get someone to do that. Then it's buy, borrow or rent a mill....or get it picked up and brought to a mill and brought back. It's able to be done but what's the best way? I have dry storage room for some slabs but I don't think the whole thing. And it's big so most portable mills can't do it. LOL maybe a match would be easier.....I kid :P

I know a guy, shipping would be a little expensive. He has some BIG walnut slabs, among other stuff.

You simply need the right tool.

I thought when I looked at the calender this morning, odd my accountant hasn't called yet. It is the 15th. I know there's an extension so wasn't worried. But his secretary just called and it was pretty good news. I don't owe any money and I'm actually getting a return!!

It's not really a refund, because i made prepayments...I just over paid and because I had so little income in 2020 they are giving some back! o_O

Didn't do much today, watered the girls and gardens in the back yard and pulled a few weeds. I did put in a timer on my return fan so it will only turn on in the evenings when it cools down so it won't pump hot air into the flower room. Going to have to turn on the AC in there probably tomorrow with the weather warming up. Leftover pizza for dinner, buds and suds time.

set up a ts100 i got back from my mum (shes 80 and uses my gardening lights now to get earlier crops of veg for the garden, )me and my big mouth about how great these leds would be for tomato and pepper plants. so ive got 3 cbd crack from fastbuds, a med gom 1.0 that they gave me as a sorry for messing your seed order up, a super lemon haze from barneys farm and 3 og kushes that were freebies from grizzly seeds nice and snug under it.
i fixed my first lawn mower that is a great achievement for me and mowed the 8" grass that constitutes our lawn , that took up hours as the mower is small and kept spluttering along at a snails pace, i had to move the mower by its length at a time all along the garden. slow work but the sun was kind of me.
i also moved one of my seedsman cbd 30-1 autos thats not flowering after week 5 coming up now of 24/0 light hours,

You better help your mother. That's a debt that should feel like a privilege.
