No one wants mine either (Douglas Fur).. Free or otherwise. Even the chip and multch guy claims to have a backlog of hundreds so wont waste the fuel to come get them. I posted them and one person called, but he can never seem to make it over here. All cut 16'6" 16"-24" diameter. The top 1/3 of the trees were chipped into the woods. Excavator comes in a day or 2 to clear the trees back, so I guess they will just be the start of the burn pile.

LOL.. I thought you were gonna say you were the guy who wanted the trees.. :) He's from up near SB.

It's been a few years (wife got sick and whatnot) but we talked before about Tippecanoe, and Bailey's.

Ha! Sorry, no, I'm not the guy that wanted the trees. I've got enough to last me a lifetime.

Don't forget Richard's. I like their Goldblatts shopping carts. :p

When I was a kid, Joeys Wallpaper in Toto was THE place to go for wallpaper. They advertised on TV and radio non-stop. Kinda like this Freedom Fred guy does now.

I heard the same as u. There's a huge oversupply of logs right now. Log people don't have any more room for logs?
But milled lumber prices are up 300 percent in 1 year. Seems like with that much log supply , the milled lumber prices should be going down. My quotes for the wood for the house are about 25,000 more than what it would have been about a year ago. I am delaying purchasing the lumber package because I am not paying that much of a premium.

Portable mill idea sounds good.
How does that work using home milled lumber cause the boards will not be graded?
Do u have to use that non graded lumber material for non habitable structures like a pole barn, garage, shop, etc?
