Since the lil' Bro was here, I decided to get the big guns out and let him block some rounds I'd bucked last Winter.


Here's a pic of one. Does anyone know what it is?(Ido)







Sure is purty,(real purty at 5 meg) Santa will be bringing me a 36" Alaskan mill, and a 41" bar so I hope to open up some other neat stuff!




 
looks like oak
 
Looks like someone 'cheated' with the chainsaw on the end of the block . . . a bit hard to split? I thought you said big guns?

100 cc 10 H.P. and about 30 pounds. You're welcome to carry it around the woods for me, anytime.

+1 thats not tulip

Dude you're from Indiana, Is the Sycamore not our state tree?

Also the state record big tree. The cypress is bigger around, but if you look at that loink, they add crown and all that to come up with total points.


lol you are a hosier the state tree is tulip, and I only look at trees on how wide it is or how big of a bar its going to take.

Doh! I am a hoser, I always remembered that song before the 500, and Larry Bird Played for the Indiana State Sycamores, and just figured that was the State Tree, Anyways I'm 99.999% sure that round came from a Sycamore tree.. My excuse is I grew up too close to Ohio!
 
Lee ,


That tree was standing dead when I took it down last Winter. It IS definiatly a Sycamore.
