Firewood Business

awesome piles of btu's

 

Never saw that one around but you are correct brenndatomu Paris is close by.

 

Low and slow is for cooking BBQ.

That hurts just watching!

 

Yeah...good candidate for a 7200 RPM electric motor me thinks!

 

Agreed.
I used a low and slow for years. Cant even look at them now. The pain the pain.

 

Fourwinds1717 nice woodworking projects. Used to do that stuff myself years ago. Some creative stuff you put together. Always nice to exercise the brain.

 

Agree with others, love the woodworking projects, wish I was that talented. We run 2 splitters, but I have never gotten the knack for hand splitting, and they are a great time saver. Keep up the good work and best of luck with your new business.

 

That was a good deal

 

Thanks everyone for the kind words and I hope you have all been well! I really enjoy this forum! We were able to get another load the other day. I’m ready for the cooler weather though. It’s a lot harder Hand splitting in 90 degree weather! Lol

 

Stephiedoll thank you very much for the kind words!

 

brenndatomu thanks for the pics and help! Those look like old ones. I like older built things myself. They seem to be built a lot better than a lot of the things we get today. I did trade a stihl weedeater for an electric 5ton log splitter last year. And to be honest. The thing was hardly worth having. It struggled on smaller pieces of wood and was very slow as well. I was able to get 100$ for it. I did rent a 24 ton bluebird to get split some oak rounds that we’re probably around 300 pounds and it did great! I really liked that log splitter!

 

bushpilot I like to try live peaceably with everyone if I can. Thank you for the kind words!

 

TurboDiesel thank you very much! I really enjoy doing them and recommend everyone try getting into it. It’s truly relaxing and rewarding when you’re finished.

 

Sandhillbilly i thought so too. I was really happy to get that truck! It’s been great for the kind of work I do and a great family vehicle as well!

 

NortheastAl thank you for the kind words and advice! I appreciate it!

 

Trying to start stocking for next year. Do any of you guys sell mixed wood? Half seasoned and half green?

 

Not sure why anyone would want to buy half n half...unless they are too cheap to pay for all good dry firewood. Or I guess I could see shady firewood sellers trying to pawn that mix off onto people to make the same money with less work.
Myself, I'd rather be the guy known for selling high quality ready to burn firewood that is always the species and quantity that is advertised.

 

We sell mixed. It includes pretty much maple, elm, ash and up. Try to keep most of the oak and locust separate for premium money.

 

Have two prices; a low one for freshly cut and a higher one for seasoned. It will give you chance to educate your customers about best practices. While you're at it, give out the link for FHC.

 

Nice work . It will be nice having a area undercover to split.
