Not sure what is actually legal trade around here. People buy and sell pretty much any way the other agrees on. I bought a trailer load of logs once. Really not sure if it saved much, but at least I didn’t have to drag it home. I haven’t bought any wood in several years. A couple large red oaks fell a few miles up the road and I cleaned them up First one had to be 4-5 years ago. And second maybe a year later. Still have some wood from the 2nd one. Then this spring neighbors had some trees taken down and I got all the wood. Of course anyone who has done it knows there is nothing free about free fire wood. I bought a new chain saw and a couple chains, a timber jack/cant hook and splitting mauls... Just now I was running the power splitter vertical on some big pieces and noticed the guide was out of place. A spacer broke and one of the 'gibs' is missing. I need to figure out if they are just mild steel. Can probably just make a block at work tomorrow.
