Science teachers can often make use of "tree cookies," which are slices from tree trunks that show the growth rings. Small ones are easy to come by, but larger slices that are smooth are better for that kind of use.Joy K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06200194467024962551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047972160037024989.post-42148408805823831712010-01-30T10:30:59.848-05:002010-01-30T10:30:59.848-05:00Ruthie - Ha, I knew this would be right up your al...Ruthie - Ha, I knew this would be right up your alley!

Ha - just kidding. Not too much city girl left in me.<br /><br />Meg - The timber jack is great, but it's not really designed for hauling logs around. I suppose it could work in a pinch, ooching the logs along slowly, but not sure it's the tool you're looking for. Glad you read the homesteading article.

I must show John the Timber Jack...he just pulls muscles hauling the logs around manually--or I pull MY muscles trying to "help." A great article on homesteading, too.
