    I've used 5 gallon buckets to carry scrawny swamp maple out of the ravine behind my house.

    Got any pics of the new setup? Still got the 362? Burning wood out there? Pardon my ignorance if you posted somewhere else...

    Here's the new setup.

    I felt so ashamed buying the $5.97 bundles of wood.

    I have since scrounged some scrap lumber. The house has a gas fireplace that I'd love to throw some wood in on the colder nights, I'm just not sure if its a good idea or not. One of my neighbors burns wood in his, and I think the previous owner here did too. One day I'll have a sweep come and check it out for me.
    I still have the MS 362 and all my wood tools. I haven't used any but an axe to split small stuff. I probably should have sold all the stuff off back east, but maybe I'll need it some day if we get a place in the higher elevations out here.
