Loaded truck pics.

Thinking it will be close to a cord. Still need to get the remainder.

 

Now that is a Nebraska style load!

 

Thats testing the springs.
Nicely done!

 

Pellet time!

 

Truck still level.
Looks like it could handle another

 

I may have been a touch overloaded. Chart I found says 5500 lbs, if I had a full cord.

 

Lot of BTU's right there.

 

Chart here on FHC says a little less.

 

I'm not saying it did weigh that much, but I believe your chart is dry weight. Any comments Backwoods Savage ?

 

Ah! That would make more sense.

edit: found this.

Trying to get my old wood yard cleaned out behind my dads old place. Split a couple dump truck loads today in addition to a pile of hickory for smoking. Picture of rounds is most of what is left. I think I should be able to finish it up next time I go over there. Have almost a couple weeks off work for hunting and catching up on some stuff, so that’ll be helpful.

 

Making cottonwood chunks and uglies

 

well heaped tote and a little bit stacked on the floor, gotta be close to 1/2 cord

 

Here’s the pics of my last 3 loads.

 

This is 5 truck loads for next year. It’s 40’ long and 8’ high. Will be two full ranks within the next couple of weeks.

 

Frickin' A Wes. Those pics ! What do you use to mark your cuts for bucking?

 

Laser guided CNC saw and splitter??? What species do you have in there? What length?

That's a stack of beauty!!! I'm not worthy!!!
