    Post Redwood

    That's only six feet on the tape measure and its six foot in diameter.
    Now any questions?

    Default Mine!

    And not the one where you get gold but the one where you get your own log.
    Plus the camera res was only 8 meg so I wanted a bit of detail.
    I will start picking it up soon but as we all know that also means I will have to dismantle it.

    Ok. I'm sorry I will clear this all up.

    This is my log, it was struck by lightning on top of Wombat Hill.
    What I meant by only "8 meg" 8 mega pixel and I needed good detail for my photo collection and to send to a client.
    "dismantle"
    –verb (used with object), -tled, -tling.
    2. to disassemble or pull down; take apart: They dismantled the machine and shipped it in pieces.

    Sure, but very good detail can be produced with even a 3 megapixel camera. There are very few cameras that have lenses good enough to even fully utilize 6 megapixels let alone 8 megapixels.

    Well it did the job he has bought almost the entire log (possible yield of 20m3)
    the only thing he hasn't paid for is the fletchings.
