    Walnut Gloat Part 2

    My good friend helped me round up the rest of the walnut along with a large cherry log today. The pile is all walnut and cherry. I just took 3 blades in to get sharpened and will get started in the morning. It sure makes it easier with a tractor. My friend pushed the large logs on the trailer and carried the rest with the bucket.

    Congrats Pete! Looks like you are going to need a bigger lathe! Ha!!!

    Have fun cutting and sealing all that wood! Make sure you get your boys to help out - if possible! And - watch your back!

    Great gloat Pete. That ought to keep ya off the street for a day or two.

    About the same distance from most of you heading East or West.

    It's easy to see the Dunning-Kruger Effect in others, but a bit of a conundrum when it comes to yourself...

    I think its amazing the amount of equipment and personnel that are necessary to turn a bowl. No wonder prices are so high!!

    That's a really nice trailer Pete. I need one. I wonder if I can get one with giant trees on it too.

    Great haul.....yes...you suck.
