It's great to have our 'Bota back on the woodyard...had 2 fork loads left to process from that trailer load Noticed bark was a bit different on a couple logs...split different too... The stringy felt heavier too... One log was partially hollow, Cresent shaped. When we split it, it had the large termites in it, these aren't the subterranean type. These logs were cut before Aug 23rd. This was split out and went to scrap pile or deer camp tote. We have another mountain to stack...
Smart man. Drinking and driving not a good idea! Just kidding of course, but I can relate. Bugs me when I come home with a partial load of wood when there's still room.
Since it was raining today, decided to stack the hickory... have to use the ladder when the walls are 8' high... Need about 10 more pieces to have the 3rd row done...
Don't think we will have a problem filling up the hickory side of this shed, thanks to Hurricane Helene...I posted a few pics in a different thread... These are the loads we hauled home, we carried a load of smaller wood to a retired coworker friend. This load has 4 white oak logs on top...they will go in the other side of the shed This was 2 trees from a different house
Wow TJV! That truck is getting a workout. Must be fun. Sampson should be fully booked for quite a while.
Yes sir. Plenty of wood available now. Nice to be able to be choosy, for a change. Thankful for the blessing of a bigger truck and splitter
Bucked the long logs on last load of post #50 above... Had some nice size rounds on this load I like this size rounds, run it thru the 4 way twice, get 16 splits from each Moved the pile to the splitter with the grapple and got maybe half split...what's left to process Made a nice pile with the conveyor Got it stacked Friday morning...a row about 7' tall...
Went to the woodyard this morning after work, split about 1 1/2 hrs... Got all but these 9 rounds done...had to get ready for grandson birthday party at noon. Now we have another pile of splits to stack...
It would drive me Leaving 9 rounds.. I would have put them threw blue Samson and let splits pile up at end BUT since you accomplish more in a day than I do in a fort night carry on sir
