Few photos of our milling this weekend. Cotton wood and walnut. Even made walnut stickers. Big pallet is just over 12 ft long.

Any of you tree gurus care to hazard a guess at this wood ID. There were 2 trees laying together at the State Park & I cut them both up. One was Oak but I am unsure on the pictured one. I gave it a better look & sniff today when splitting, it has a sweet aroma to it. The bark doesn’t match up to Honey Locust & Honey Locust has a distinctive smell, color is similar though.

I use it for the pallets and light weight boxes. Anyone check the price of a 2x4? $7.22 each.

Winner. Funny how he thinks it has a sweet aroma. Most people think it stinks. I like the smell too

I will post some photos of the other stuff tomorrow, it has the typical oak pores & it stinks. That’s why I didn’t think the stuff I asked about was Red Oak, no pores & it smells sweet. It even looks different on the cross cuts and has different bark. Maybe they are two different types of Oak.

Well the bar on the SL5R has printed “use 63 inch chain”. So, .5625 x 2 x 56 = 63”. Good.

But the chain I took off has 57 drivers. [emoji19]

I honestly think there's a bazillion kinds of oak.
I simply point at a tree ( oak, pine, Palm, doesn't matter) and say "Oak".

Tree in the yard= yard oak.
Tree in the field= field oak.
Tree in the fence line= fence oak.
Tree fell across the road= road oak or dead oak.
Tree with barb wire tacked to it= post oak.
Tree growing in a swamp= wet oak.
Tree growing in another country= foreign oak.
Tree in England= bad accent oak.
Tree growing in Kansas= wheat oak.
Tree growing on a mountain top= lost oak.
Tree growing in the Ozarks= hillbilly oak.
Tree growing in Virginia= presidential oak.
Tree growing in New York= attitude oak.
It's easier to just say everything is an oak.
