    No splitting speed records this weekend in the heat. But I got some work done.

    With this cord (maple, tulip poplar, mystery wood, and cherry) 20200823_161527.jpg

    And this is about a cord of oak and 1/2 of beech

    Im a little over the 3 year plan (5 cords/ year).:thumbs:

    Yeah I know, with the crew on this site, doesn't count until stacked. :D

    It does. I'll feel better when its all stacked though.


    Im already planning where to put the next 10 cords. Goal is to be there by this time next year.

    I rather wait too. However my wife is telling me that I have an upcoming bathroom remodel to do :doh:.

    Counting on part of winter to do that. But Im sure they'll be some :saw:, :axe:, :stacker: going on.

    Thanks to FHC educating me about the 3 year plan.

    This answer for me too. It's been a miserable hot & humid summer. I've got 10 cord of logs here to get processed yet.

    I agree, I much rather cut wood when it's cold. Plus I have so so many other projects I have to do in the warm months, and the list only gets bigger as I go.

    I still use my fingers buy am cut back to only using one hand for many things. Neck pain has been increasing but I think it is just the muscle on the sides of the neck due to not being used. I pray only 2 more weeks before this brace gets trashed... Thanks for asking.
