    As do many freinds, people around town, and neighbors. But when your burning dry wood in that multi week cold spell that folks are complaining about can't keep the house warm enough and your in shorts at 80f who is crazy then.

    First post on this site. Been lurking for a bit. Split this pile this weekend, and have about one more pile like this to go this year. Sitting on around 15 cords at the moment.

    Welcome to the nut house. Love the pictures but can't make out what splitter you have, maybe a Troy built? What saws are you using. We love pictures!

    Thank you:)

    The splitter is a well used Huskee 35 ton. The old style with the vertical shaft engine. I bought it used years ago, but it still runs, so I'm happy with it.
    For saws I'm all over the place. I have a little bit of Stihl, a little bit of Husqvarna, but mostly Dolmar and Makita. Saws are fun! Here are most of them. There's a few other projects too. IMG_3844.JPG

    Thank you for the welcome.
    There will be some stacking this weekend I'm sure. I'll have good help from my 8 year old little helper:)
