Got wood?

[Roy]

The motion .gif is very nicely made. I don't like the chainsaw defacement of living trees.

I agree with you Roy. I love trees. No idea whether it was dead or alive at the time of carving...............just showing something that fits the thread.

I wish I could limit my cutting of wood to just dead trees, but that's just not realistic and I'll probably be setting up a lumbering exercise in the coming year as I have way too many trees that are way too big and are way too close to my house in PA; at least 20 poplars that are well beyond getting arms around.

Trees are great and add a lot to property value. But when they become a safety issue or property damage situation, the trees have to go. Knowing you as we do, I'm sure it will be a judicious cutting.

I hope to combine elimination of dangerous locations to the house and electrical, while also maybe funding the new septic system. I discussed it with my CFO and my son. The former is not thrilled with the idea while the latter has approved it. I will be actively investigating options in the near future. I am most concerned about whoever does it making a total mess of my property that takes me the rest of my life to clean up.

Have you talked to possible lumber purchasers about this? They might make you a worthwhile deal.

That's exactly what I was referring to when I stated that I will be actively investigating options in the near future.

My grandparent’s yard got destroyed. Large trees are not moved easily. A few nice trees were sacrificed for equipment access. My grandfather claimed if he had to do it again. “He would have used a middle man( forester) you also need to act soon . Before there is a ban on moving lumber out of your county.(spotted lantern fly) a forester will run the show for you. He keeps chainsaw monkeys in check.

I doubt it will leave the county and will probably wind up with the Amish.

...for old time Halloween in-the-window displays/pranks ?

Otherwise, it seems a bit desperate to have handmade something like that. Eh?
