Too true! Recently a Chinese Pistachio tree came down across the street. The city guys whacked it up pretty fast but I was able to snatch some rounds before they hauled it away. I was lugging them across the street when my landlord who lives right across the street saw me. We were yacking about the wood and I mentioned that I was going to have to split the rounds pretty quick (a chain saw is one of the things I don't have) and you should have seen his eyes light up. He literally ran back to his house and came trotting back with a chain saw and dove right in to halving the rounds while I leaned against the house watching and instructing him on exactly how I wanted the pieces cut. Tom Sawyer would have been proud of me....

This is so true. My ears perk up every time I hear a chainsaw anywhere. I crane my neck if I drive past a downed tree, or a chunk of wood....

I have so much wood behind, and in front of my shop, I can't get to it as fast as the bugs and the spalting...

I need a bigger chainsaw and a bigger band saw...:D

...and to be independently wealthy. :)

Hey David, I'd love a picture of that Pistache wood... I drive past one of those trees next to a church downtown every day. I'd always thought it was a Pecan until a horticulturist I know mentioned it to me one day.

there should be some lines on the left side of the page indicating some sort of powerful vortex pulling him.

Timely too.

Gary, who's eyeing the standing dead sugar maple across the street.

Probably not a good idea to drop it in the thunderstorm that'll be home before I am tho. Dang.

Think positive Gary, maybe the storm will drop it.

How often have I caught my self saying "Ahhhhh, the siren song of the chainsaw...must resist...no more room for more wood". Then I stop by to see if there is anything special only to pick up one or two pieces anyway.

So now I know what happened to me yesterday. I was supposed to doing flat work in my shop, way behind. The next thing I knew I was using my chain saw and cutting 18 bowl blanks out of walnut to anchor seal. Wew. For a second there I thought the vortex was pulling me in AGAIN. :D
