I have this neighbor I have mentioned in the sawing forum, "Curly Maple". I call him that for anyone who hasn't read my posts on him because he has split and burned more curly maple than I have seen in the last 2 years. He heats his house with huge walnuts, cherry... I have went round and round with him and have said some things about him here that are not real nice. I was eating lunch today when the fire dept. went out. His place was on fire, he had stoked a big stove full and ran out for awhile. It was all gone when he came back. I just helped him dig a hole for his dog.
. DanG it, I hate to see that happen to anybody. He does have kin close and he seamed pretty upbeat for a guy who just lost his home. I am going to take the skidsteer down in a day or two when the rain lets up and push some stuff around. My buddy stopped by a minute ago and said offer to buy his monster splitter and put him out of business, I will wait till the smoke clears so to speak on that conversation.
