Falling A Long Dead Oak

Saturday work chore in dropping a water oak that has been littering our hay field for a year. Got 2 sawmill logs and some good 16" oak firewood later. We didn't know if it was hollow inside so the danger factor was high.

Used tractor grapple, chainsaw, Foley Belsaw M-14 circle sawmill. Triple T Ranch & Sawmill on Choctaw Ridge is homesteading with a sawmill & anvil.
