Well maybe not "Logging" but I'm getting some logs of sorts and some VERY nice wood!!
Here is a Link to my page on the subject.
Recently a very large house and the surrounding grounds have been scheduled for demolition, so they can rebuild and put up yet another apartment building. We are losing a very big chunk of green space in out neighbourhood. It is all private property, so there is nothing we can do about it. My lovely wife was walking by the place the other day, and she went and asked the foreman if I could have some of the trees they are cutting down. The guy said "sure thing".
I've gotten a number of loads, and I should be able to get a heck of a lot more. The wood is mostly "Japanese Evergreen Oak" which is a hardwood and seems to be in the beech family, but looks a lot like Oak as well. I can't beat the price!
I got one tree that was bug damaged, and the wood is REALLY nice looking....
It is the one in the middle that looks like a rose
This pic does not do the wood justice.
I've made up my own mini chainsaw mill........
and with a guide board, I can get the logs down to a size I can run through Big Blue, my resaw bandsaw...
(I don't know how many pics I can post at once, so I'll continue this in another post)
