As with most all the ads in this post, one has to ask WTF are these people thinking? Are they trolling for that one guy dumber than themselves or do they really believe somebody would say want to do work for free?
Both. Can’t succeed until you try.

Already felled maple (sugar?). Should be good for woodworking. Prefer it not go to firewood. FREE. Bring a chainsaw and I'll help load.

That one is not too bad. Cut it into 10 ft logs and have him help load it on the truck. Just mention that you do some woodworking and carpentry. Once you get it home, cut it to firewood length. It does save free, even though silver maple is not the greatest wood, it looks easy to get to and apparently he will help. Sounds better than most of my firewood scores.
 
Playing pick up sticks and paying for it is one thing but what really befuddles me is the people wanting legitimate tree work for free.

Not only is it ridiculous but you think the goofball who won't charge for his work has the skills to swing trees over your Ferrari and million dollar house?
