Guess the Cordage

I thought the winner got a ride in the corporate helicopter!

As far as you can go on one tank of fuel. It would have been 2 tanks last year.

 

Hoping to talk my way into that at Scotty's GTG in a couple weeks here...

 

Looks good. Glad you had some help.

 

Me too!



I did take some out of the Sun time to touch the chain and go back out for the big ugly.
Done for the day!

 

How often you run the 394 Mike? Not too many big blowovers in your woods?

 

Great work there fellas. Always funner cutting with someone else.

 

Not too often
That was a CL score I couldn’t pass on and glad I didn’t.
34” bar and it didn’t blink cross cut or noodle.

 

At 94 cc's i dont think it would blink. Is that your biggest Husky? 500i at 79cc the biggest ive ever run.
Always fun to run the long bar every now and then...unless you hit dirt (been there done that)

 

That is totally awesome yall got together to cut and play saws.
I was wiring andnhanging sheetrock....not nearly as fun, but just as satisfying.
Nicy done guys.
Synergy is something awesome!

 

I was thinking this:

 

Everything is in one pile now.
Measures 10x13x4.75 of rounds.
I’ve figured a volume based on the same way I estimate a pile of splits.

Anyone one to guess the cordage again based on that info?

there’s a tape measure on the round closest to me in the second picture, for reference if that’s useful

 

1.65

 

Using a height of 5 and a radius of 6 , I get 188.5 cu ft /128=1.5 corde de bois/cord of wood.
With a little luck and a wide enough margin of error I don't need my pencil's eraser.

 

I get 1.78 looking at it as an ellipsoid, cutting it in half, and then taking 70%.

 

No math in my guess. Just spitballing based on how much I’d have to stack from a similar size pile.

 

A little more info if it helps.
Spent a little time this morning getting into the splitting part.

 

Looking betterer.

 

Another poke at it this morning before the splitter ran out of gas and me interest.
I figure what is split and piled is about 95% of a cord.

 

Slowly, slowly, catch a monkey.
Got through the rest of the Goldie Locks stuff and was left with the noodle ables, which I did this evening. Any luck I’ll have the splitting done tomorrow morning before it gets warm out.
