Do you have trees to grow? Logs to saw? A forest to manage? Chainsaws to fix? A sawmill to purchase or maintain? Timber related business to run? Lumber to dry? Trees or plants to identify? A cabin to build? Are you hungry and like FOOD?

Or would you just like to pull up a stump and visit with a friend?
If any of these and a multitude of other topics apply, then The Forestry Forum is the place for you.

I've got 4.5 gallons of expired/ unused peanut oil. Thinking of putting it in the lubemizer. Any reasons not to? Used some grape seed oil once at a large commercial mill. Smelled good. Thanks
