    Late last night we finished splitting and stacking the 2017 wood. Better late than new, the new 362 and the repaired 034 super made all the difference in getting caught up.

    And this mid-morn to mid-afternoon my buddy and I got three loads moved into the basement and stacked. Planning to do the same tomorrow!

    Four cord in each stack. The stuff we are moving in is mostly ash.

    griz in your area will it be dry in a year?

    The stuff I just split should be close, but not as dry as I would like. We usually try to process in the spring instead of waiting until fall. Better yet is when we can process just after the wood gets moved in for the winter and we can give it a full two years. Might be able to do some of that this year!

    Yes, we have been having a ton of fun with both the new saw and the repaired one. Hell, even the 250 got some action the other day doing some carpentry work on the garage door.

    A guy I used to work with would use a chainsaw to rough-in new construction for HVAC! At least, until the boss found out. But he was quick!!! :whistle:
