Completely jealous bud !!! Them are wicked woodies  Iv been wanting something that size for a long time , sad part is iv found some a few years back but would take a full day of being lost to remember where . Then im still stuck with the problem of how do I get it out of the ground and into the truck  Seeing these picks just gave me the itch to go scout ... Thanks for the great show |

Yep, you definitely got wood, roy! Looks like half of the tree you brought home. Nice slab, too. What kind of pet wood is it? |

That is amazing. I only really believed you meant petrified wood after getting to Fossilman's last post. Never seen anything like that.

And they say it's not about the size..... In this case HELL YES! Look at the size of that, it took a cat just to move it. You are going to be busy for a long time.

roy That is truly awesome. I remember a giant long log you left out there some time ago. Is this it? I have a local business with a self built 48" slab saw for 18-20" logs. Do you have a drag saw now? How are you slabbing giant oaks?
