2 Truck loads finally arrived!

Rock maple, yellow birch, ash, and hornbeam

 

That's a nice pile of logs there, that will keep you busy for some time!

That's crazy about the wait, I can text my next door neighbor, he and his dad run a logging company and have a 12-13 cord semi load here in 2 days.

There is at least 10 different logging companys within 20 mins of us.

 

I called 15-20 within 35 miles of me. Some weren't cutting due to lack of land. But mostly it was because the paper mills are buying all the wood, so it's easier for them to just haul straight to the mill.

 

I am also surprised by how long it took you to get that! I guess were lucky here in new york where I live, there are a ton of loggers in my area. I called the first one that came to mind and had a nice load in just over a week.

 

Done yet?

 

That depends on if he runs stills. If so it might be a while.

 

Almost! Not really, but I'm having fun

 

Husqvarna are eating well.

 

Sweet. I always love a good jab at the other side.

 

Me too!

 

Now the fun starts.

 

An object of lust from my childhood.

 

A few pics as I start to dig into the pile

 

I know you already know this, but be careful of shifting logs when standing on them. Like the PPE, oh, and the pile of logs.

 

How long are your splits? Kinda look longer than 20”.

 

My guess is 18-20"

 

Thanks, I'm definitely not very experienced cutting on piles. I'll be careful!

 

Actually 16 for the most part. Some get long ,so anything over 17 goes into my personal stacks

 

Wrong! 16 mostly But sometimes they get away from me

 

Is that a zip tie you are using for determining length?
