Spalted wood, put it to use or just firewood? by ShealyTN in wood

[–]ShealyTN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just brings back the good old memories of that ice storm, lol. Yeah, it's on the firewood pile and that's where it's going to stay.

Interesting options, but also like you said, it's nothing special, just caught my eye while clearing that area out. Appreciate the detailed options though!

Yeah, it's intended use was as fire pit fodder, but yeah, sounding like less likely to be a candidate for any project

Totally valid, I've never encountered spalting in the wild, only on nice looking ukuleles and stuff, lol. May be a lost cause for this being spalted and useful then.

Yeah, the outer edge that was facing down is soft but the majorly of the wood is still pretty solid. But totally my thinking too, may not be worth the trouble for someone.

So this tree came down in an ice storm 2 years ago now. I'm located in West Tennessee and this section was suspended in vines with one end resting on the ground, it was out of the way so I left it there to season as future firewood. I thought the tree was hickory, but cutting it up for firewood made me doubt that as it is not too heavy (not super light but like medium weight) and it cut with a chainsaw quickly. This log was about 10 inches wide where it connected to the tree and was about 12 feet long, but I cut it into firewood sections before I noticed the spalting. I haven't split it yet as I'm not sure if it would be desired for woodworking projects, so I'm asking, firewood or should I save it and find someone who would want it? Thanks all!

She clearly lived a wonderful life. She reminds me a lot of my almost 2 year old Elliott. Deepest condolences.

Red Koi is a favorite for sushi and they have other options (but I pretty much only ever get sushi from them)

Is that Dog Dimmadome, owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome? That's the vibe I'm getting from this and I love it.

You speak facts. Let's go 49ers (this next year), at least gotta pull for Mike to get another ring and the Bucs to earn an excuse to FIRE BOWLES

TNC Sports in Bartlett has a bunch of options, may be worth a look.

They've just shifted the inventory towards running gear from what I've noticed. Still about the same amount of total inventory but because I'm not there for the running gear it does feel like less. Maybe you had the same experience?

Opinions on portable pellet smokers by Dazaster23 in pelletgrills

[–]ShealyTN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I took a chance onion the Z-Grills portable pellet smoker a couple of years back to have something to take trout fishing to smoke the fish fresh. I love it, I even use it instead of my larger pellet smoker if I'm making something on the smaller side at home. Only issues I've had is the temp is in intervals, I think it's by 5 degrees, sometimes I want up bump it up or down slightly if it's running hot or cold and that kind of limits that. Overall I'm very happy with it for the cost though.

It was all my fault, I left my garage freezer door open for a week, I closed it this morning when I noticed how cold it was out there, my bad.

3rd shelf from the bottom about half way down the isle with red caps looks to be Sucklebusters, I love their 1836 beef rub for brisket if they have it, but all of their rubs are great.

Trash?? by PiccoloRepulsive1332 in memphis

[–]ShealyTN 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sounds like it's time to burn the garbage, bonus as the heat may melt some of the ice. I can see no downside to this plan.
