Retlaw, Welcome to the forum. You couldCut the trees, trim and buck to the log length you would like. Burn the limbs ( they will go up quick) and here you can rent a grinder for $90 per weekend. Have a portable mill come to you or take the logs to a mill and have alot less invested than having someone do it for you, even if you were to keep the lumber and pay the mill. Having someone do this is usually big $$$.

Welcome to forum Retlaw. Okie has a good point. I rented a grinder for $ 75.00 for 24hrs. I have a hunting camp not far from you near Caledonia State Park. I know an Amish guy that lives near Fayetteville on Black Gap Rd. who builds cedar chests. I will be seeing him next Wed. I'll mention this to him. I've cut cedar for him with my bandmill in the past. I'll get back to you to see if he is interested and take it from there. Like Okie said, if you limb them out and let them sit for about a month on a pile, they will burn quick.

  Footer that's ok I have had a day or two like that.

 



  I try to keep a whack of cedar logs on hand all the time.  I could go though 30 to 50 tons a week if I had it.

 



  You can make post and all kinds of stuff out of it.

 



 It even makes pretty signs.

 



  I use it as split rails, mulch and to even hold my sawblade and tell folks what I got.
