Holy CRAP that's a big tree!

A big, gnarly tree. If it isn't rotting out inside or otherwise damaged, I bet the grain patterns would be incredible.

SWEET jumpin' JEEBUS! That's not a tree... that's a FROST GIANT'S BUNION!


....or  Karno's Hangnail.

:C An ancient relic.
I hope a sprout is growing in its place < :|
...but then again in 1000 years it will bust up someone else's garage xD

Dat be a big tree...

This is what happens when a fat bird makes his nest in a tree.

A shame to see such a tree fall down.

Whoa...that puts it in prespective doesn't it? My god...NOW where are you going to dump your radioactive waste?

"That's not a tree, it's a space station."

I have some duct tape and super glue...

wow! Glad no one was hurt when it fell!

What'd THAT sound like coming down?

hope the garage is covered by the insurance for this.

Gawd.. That's one big-ass tree o.o

Wow! Glad it only took on the garage!

Holy hell Jim! That's not a tree. Looks like an Ent tripped over your fence and fell on your garage. :O

Lady should be holding an axe and smiling.

"I did this all by myself"...

Holy crap! It's bigger than I imagined!
Good thing it wasn't closer to the house, because if that trunk hits you it would have been much worse!

That's quite the tree. Our firewood stores here are completely full to capacity right now where I am, and the fireplace is currently off-limits (landlord homeowner guy is on semester abroad, insurance would be displeased if we used the fireplace with him not around), but I'll help cut/split/stack if you need it.

We'll keep that in mind, right now we're waiting what one person does with the trunk.

Well crap ... I'd help cut the thing but its a bit of a drive for me. You guys ok?

Daaaamn.

You know people who do wood art pay money for good old gnarled wood. If there is anyway you can get it cut into proper thickness it might be a good source of funds for your limited income situation.

You've checked out the info on this tree wood on them internets? Maybe for carving, wood engraving, musical instrument parts.... Some woodworking wholesaler might buy slabs or sections (or accept donations).

Depends on what kind of "boxwood" it is...... I'm pretty sure it's not "true" boxwood (Buxus sempervirens), which is an evergreen shrub /tree. It might be flowering dogwood, but I'm not sure......... even some species of eucalyptus are called "boxwood", according to the dictionary.....

Amazing it missed Mrs. Groat by so little!

That is a lot of boxes.

Gnarly, man! =^.~=

Dead Ent. Dead Ent, dead ent, dead ent, dead ent, dead ent. dead ent. *to the tune of the Pink Panther*

you might be able to call a tree removal service or a furniture company.
Depending on if boxwood is usable for more than firewood you could make a pretty penny.
If not then its time to call in your friends and rent a chain saw i guess.
Glad it didn't smack you or the house proper!

Holy chrome! O_o

At least that is not the size of the OAK TREE that took out the entire BARBED WIRE FENCE out at the property and you want to talk about a wake up call at FOUR IN THE MORNING from the neighbor who has a cattle pasture on the other side of the road. Good thing we could use the lumber in not only fire wood but also as posts later that year but doing a quater mile of fence combined from BOTH properties that i was glad to be off for three days in a row. My pour little S10 and our monster Ford F150 Centerion had the piss worked out of them along with our neighbors tractor and the combine they own was even used to pull as well. But the hole that was made took a LOT of rock from the river to fill up. And also i looked at the other photo's and you got lucky right there. Also that is still ONE BIG TREE!

Hope you get things taken care of and also did not want to make you feel alone as well. I would take a house over that fence building any day here in Kansas considering it tore up my old welding gloves.
