  • Good work. sorry for the final failure. The cut piece so long has been used for something or cut into pieces?

  • Yo Giorgio!! We sold the log...made $43 more than the $300 log trucking fee. Low grade wood, pallet boards are made from it.

  • Unfortunately, Doug didn't know that the Canon Prol only shoots 30 second vid clips. So we missed the tree going over. The butt was 86 feet long and weighed about 15 tons!! That's about 70 pounds per cubic foot, if I recall my figuring correctly!! Even in the winter, black cottonwood is full of water!

  • He had on PPE bro the chaps. I never wear chainsaw chaps. Maybe I should....

  • Thanks for the clarification Rbtree. Here too we get pallets, wooden boards, etc ... from the trunks when appropriate, or they are used to produce bioenergy. Ciao, Giorgio

  • Yeah...didn't look good that Dave had his cap on.....
