duuuuude.... judging by the size of that window on the side of house behind it,I'd guess 6 foot plus easily.
You gonna grab it? That's like 20% of my season's supply there :lol:

Niiiice. :coolgrin: Looks like you could get 6,almost 7ft clear before hitting any of those huge forks.Be an awesome slab for massive dining room table.For my yet unpurchased 15th century Scottish castle. ;-P You know,the one with the huge fireplace with opening big enough to roast an ox in over the fire :vampire:

Wish you where here I would slab a few up for you. With the time I have this could be the 880 first cross cut action. Roll my ancle hard Monday dont feel like putting 2 day behind a saw. :cheese:

Take care of that ankle,brother.As we age things dont heal as fast. If you go back to work too soon,its easy to cause more serious & permanent damage.I pulled a disc in lower back in May 2007 just by reaching up to close a window at home,as luck would have it,got the phone call that evening to report for a new job 5 days later.Didnt turn it down of course,but was very careful the first 2 weeks until I felt 100% again.

Yea thats what I am trying nothing but ice now 48 hours. Looks to me even with the 880 2-3 hours wot trigger time. This will make the 70cc saw puke! :lol:

Not an oak Jay, but you can come and cut this one up. That is the ornery one laying on that stump. She is 5'2"

No, don't blame that one on me BeGreen. Although I have cut several like this in the past, this one was done by a neighbor.

Last big red oak I done was enough to say never again.(Aug 2009) :cheese: with my ankle I might have to pass. (Unless I can run that 880 setting down) :lol:

No it didn't. I don't think that fellow does a whole lot of cutting.
Then to top it off, he was going to push it around with a small dozer.....and ran into bees; probably yellow jackets. I saw it happen but was inside the car at the time; a good place to be when yellow jackets are involved.

I am going after that Big Oak in the Morning.... ;-) Will get pics of the 880 fighting to cut this monster.
