OOOKKKK so i still need some help i see with this picture posting. If someone will please tell me the steps in getting pic on this forum from photobucket :thanks:
when you go to ophotobucket, just put your pointer on the pic, it should pop up a list of options, go down to image code....click once, then go to the OG post and paste it in there. That should do it. pappy
Like Pappy said, just copy the IMG code and paste in your post.
Did one for ya here.

This is my other wood source, and i wanted to make sure i got this photobucket thing done so i can start show yall some pics too. Most of the stuff im getting now is coming from people tearing down barns or i cruise the woods near my home or on the farms around here. This is a huge white oak behind my house(once used it as a literal treestand a year or two ago :fud:)
BTW Thanks!!! Pappy & TurkeyPot pie for the info on photobucket. Im gonna post some pics of my first few calls i have made thanks to everyones help on here.
The old doors look promising! The tree... you better get it soon. With all of that fungi on the trunk, it looks like it has been down for a while. You might find some spalting, but my guess is that the sapwood is probably already beginning to decay. It would make some good firewood if it doesn't make lumber. ;)
