    If you saw in the pics, the logs are on "stringers" up off the ground. I use my 3 pt forks to pick up a couple at a time & buck them near the splitter. Cutting from a stack like that gets old fast.

    We had a good time Jeff, lots of work, but it's always good when working for & with friends. Anytime you're up this way I bet I can find us trees to cut.:handshake:

    Did you leave the stumps high to make them easier to get out?
