While you have the saw out...

Saw this on social media. Cute idea.

Some folks see this as crafty artwork . . . I simply see it as a quick, hot fire for the Fall or Spring time.

Great. Now I can't get the picture out of my head of a burning snowman with a completely different, startled looks on his face.

If I show my wife those, I'll be making them all winter

My mother sent me a text the other day. She was at Pottery Barn and they were selling cut chunks of wood debarked and sealed for $299. Not even kidding. Showed it to another teacher in my lunch and she said she would buy one for cheaper.

I'm in the wrong business.

We all need to book some international travel, every one of us is a billionaire at that price.

I had to call bullshit on this so I did some research and sure as chit, we are all in the wrong business. It looks like someone called BS on the chunk of wood with rope because it is no longer available:

But all that crappy pine you dare not put in your stove now has a great use if you can cover the expense of the paint and MDF and still make a profit:

Now I have to go back to trying to break even running an honest auto repair facility.

my wife sells home made crafts and also simple furniture/light fixtures and such. She had me cut up a poplar round I had. She sold each piece for like $15 to someone whom wanted them as wine bottle holders for tables at a wedding. Wasn't $299, but $15 a piece for poplar, is a good day for me everyday.

All those years I worked in the wood working industry
wasted I could have made millions making those
and now I just split it and heat my house DAM

Man at that rate I am spending probably $18,000 a month to heat my house.

Best part is it is imported, can you imagine the F#$#@ing carbon foot print of that piece of wood. They seriously could not find someone in the USA to cut and varnish some trees for them? With the shipping costs I bet they are paying $1.00 each at the country of origin.

I am sure pottery barn is sending all of these folks cease and desist letters for stealing their very original idea.
