I would not say our Poplar burns cold, it burns hot if you give it enough air. As starter kindling wood that is what I want and all I use it for.

I haven't checked the BTUs but suspect that it's about like burning white birch. Sometimes though, I don't want a hot fire.

Scouting for game with a drone is illegal in Michigan

Well thank God I don't live in Michigan then. For lots of reasons..

And I wasn't scouting for deer, just doing property surveillance ...

I agree about the smell, in the last couple of years I've sold a few wheeler loads to the LP mill in New Limerick. It still has that same smell when you buy it as OSB...



It's a different tree than what we have up here though. Apparently though they all make equally poor firewood.

Its just Yellow Poplar, do you have different?

Uhhhhhhhh sorry honey you know that wonderful BD present you got me well I was out trying to find some deer and you wont believe this but last I saw it it it was heading towards a a a swamp, about 2000 mi north of here here, probably some maniac is going to shoot it..........

Funny (to me anyway) story. So when I was setting the drone up they offer "Care Refresh" which is kind of an insurance package where they will replace the drone twice in a year if you crash it for a small nominal fee so I bought it. When the wife saw the charge in the CC statement she asked what it was and I told her, she immediately said to go find a tree so we make sure to get our moneys worth!! :eek:

FWIW...just the bark of Tulip Poplar trees can fetch upwards of $6 a square foot (that's not a typo)...the wood itself is mostly used for interior moldings and mill work...
It's about worthless for firewood as it burns very fast...

What is the bark used for ?? Something artsy maybe ?

Drones have been used here for scouting deer and also herding deer towards hunters or pushing deer off posted property . Like a one man drive. SOME deer hunters catch on to new technology real fast. All became illegal very quickly here too.

A drone drive would be just wrong. I do not like drives anyway, or dog hunting...

So where do I sell this bark for $6 a sq ft? I may need to clear-cut the poplars in my woods!!:cool2:
