What did you accomplish today?

The crotch wood is the most figured and the most valuable. Not for lumber but for tables and stuff.

I have the Woodmizer LT40 it will cut 24” width 36” height but you can manipulate that by making a few cuts and that will reduce the size. The draw back to that is if you want live edge.....well then you have to get a little creative.

Big wood is just like big steel.... heavy and rough on fingers and toes. Be careful bro.

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...

Is it infected with beetles or healthy?

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

Maple?? Those long lengths looks like sawable lumber...But that is probably why they are not chopped up!

They know where they are safe, like the bucks used to be in Paradise.

When we lived on base there was a big 4 point that would eat the roses off our plant in the front yard.

Another batch of clones in soil. All shapes and sizes, four different strains. Maybe one more small batch of clones to get some cuts of those GMOs and I'm done with the clones for a while.

There was no one at the recycling place when I got there so it was easy peasy, $108 and change for cans. Picked up the pizza's I ordered online, found a 30% off coupon online also. Beer shelf is filled along with the ice tray. I think I deserve to sit on my ass the rest of the afternoon.
