I had a bunch today that I just couldn't look directly at. :) Look halfway up the right edge. See the bulbous eye and it looks like a mouth made by a hatchet? Could actually be a cameleon...
 
That's pretty next to some I have
 
Dang...I am not near my wood right now. Man could I show you ugly!
 
Ugly, all I got to do is look in mirror. Now that is ugly. twisted knarly wood is just more BTU's to love.

I will play (when I figure out posting picture)
+1 good thread here
 
Also, to be honest . . . that is one of the prettier pieces of "ugly" wood that I've seen . . . I'll try to remember to take some pics of the pine I was splitting up the other day.

Surely I can do better than this, but Jags' will be hard to beat. I may have to find a Sweetgum out there, to even come close.
This one is actually sorta cute....

And to think I burned that Pecan crotch on the smoker this summer - it'd put Jag's elm to shame(if I had more tonnage anyways)
After stalling and jamming it ~6times on the hydros I gave up and "resized" it with the saw.
 
And are we judging hydro uglies or hand split uglies - won't be a fair
 
I guess I already burned the real ugly one in the fire pit

That's pretty ugly... :)

But, I heard if you burn pine? Your hair falls out? And you may go blind? LOL

Will have to take a pic tomorrow. But I have a few.. Just a few though. And I try to hide those ;lol

Yeah, these have to be uglies that we have now. If Jags has burned the Nightmare Elm, he will have to come up with something else. ==c
