[jhoff310]

Already cut, and easy access, you cannot beat that.

Wow, nice wood pile. It looks like it could be Sugar or Norway maple. Not sure.

the white square in the first picture all the way to the left is a sign I threw on it. I know the property owner and he said he would chase anybody away. I have got wood from this guy before, he had a tree fall on his house a few years back and cause 90K in damage. This tree lost a huge limb on Monday due to the ice storm we had here. The city finally cut it yesterday and he came to me and asked me if I wanted it.

I don't see any locust but I think I see a big old Norway Maple. The thick furrowed bark looks like older Norway Maples, and the darker heartwood with a thick white sapwood also resembles old Norway Maples. In many Pennsylvania cities there are a lot of big, old Norway Maples like this tree, so I assume the same is true in Ohio. That is a great score. I hope you're ready for some heavy duty splitting - some of those pieces will put up a fight.

A pile like that on the curb around here would start a feeding frenzy. Nice score.

 

[basswidow]

Yeah - I see a bunch of maple - and I agree, it will put up a fight unless you're using a hydraulic splitter.

Great score - I was pleased with the maple I got last year. Seasoned in 1 year and burned just fine.

Nice score you got there man! I've seen locust sold around here for $400+ a cord.

 

[WoodPorn]

WOW that's a monster score! Nice job...give the owner a 12 pack for thinking of you!

 

[tecumseh]

Yes, nice score! I haven't seen anything like that yet, probably gone before I can get to them over my lunch hour. Gratz!

I have to stop coming across wood scores like this. My wife understands my addiction and claims she is fine with it, but I think she is secretly thinking about divorce court if I bring home more wood. LOL My poor dogs are running out of places to conduct their business, Im waiting for them to climb the piles and do their business on my wood to send me a message.

here is a pic of one of the splits, still curious as to what it is.
