Don't tell him about the big locust I found Saturday that must have snapped off in the big wind we had the other week.
Good rain today stopped this afternoon and wind picked up drying it out a bit. Split another row of quarters using just the X27. Mound of splits growing. Another 3/4 cord split. At least 1.5 cord so far. One row of quarters to split and some logs to buck. Few noodle logs too. All red oak.
buZZsaw BRAD, percentage-wise, what's your estimate of the annual breakdown of - Cords you use yourself for heat Cords you sell Cords you give away, if any.
Use less than two, sell maybe 15, but varies. Give away maybe two which includes a cord of unsplit rounds to my friend where i have wood stored. Been giving him more shorts and gnarlies as of late.
I have a little less than triple that. Keep the seasoning cycle going. Half of it has to be oak and hickory so longer wait.
Did more splitting today. Less than two previous times. Warmer day. First two pics before, last two after. Over two cords of oak splits now.
Havent worked on the oak other than bucking some logs last week. Split maybe 1/4 cord+ today. The mound of splits grows. Has to be over two cord now. Maybe one more splitting session plus several rounds to be noodled to split size.
Split the rest of the oak sections/rounds yesterday. Some logs left to buck and some chunks to noodle then on to stacking!
