    The Dyna that I use in my firewood business and how I get ride of the waste, sawdust, chafe and shorts, uglies and wood I would rather burn than sell to a customer.

    Nice way to use all the scraps. I’m just starting to get used to the idea of summer.

    There is so much leftover wood waste from making the cords. I need a convenient/easy button way to get rid of it. I run the OWB year around(summer time for domestic hot water). The fact it’s free makes the work a little less worse.

    I've seen worse thrown into an outdoor burner. Seems they don't much care what material is added, so long as flammable.

    I may be guilty of throwing worse things in.

    I was thinking of you this past week when travelling around the UP. I kept looking at places selling firewood and then thinking of you, your family and that wood processor. Also seeing some tree leaf in the very beginning stage of fall color was great.

    Also, fortunately the Canadian smoke was not a problem for us through this past week (We just got home a couple hours ago).

    I like the frost!

    Is it right on schedule for your area Tom? Im done sweating and ready for cold weather. Im so much more productive when in a sweatshirt.

    Great use of the scrap and splitter waste. :thumbs:
