I've never burned mulberry before but I'm about to toss a small split of it in the stove along with a little ash round. I've heard great things about it so I wanna see what it does..
Good call bringing in the pro's. Tree on the ground safely, and you still get to turn big chunks into smaller chunks of BTU's.
Ill be continuing the clean up and processing today. The winds are whipping and the temps won't rise much past the mid 40's with the wind. Stove started......
This morning, my body has what people call "soreness" going on. Once the stove is dialed in, and my coffee is cool, im heading out.
Welp... to prevent soreness, I'd say just work at the "speed of Stinny"...... but you'd freeze to death...
Looks like those guys know what they are doing. Good call getting them in to piece them down. We did a monster white oak yesterday, 4' diameter at waist height and hollow, with a huge split running up the back of the tree to around 25'. Trunk was 60' tall, most of the top was already out from Hurricane Sandy damage a couple years back but we still had a couple large limbs to take down .... I HAD to crawl in the base and get a pic before I removed the stump!!
Nice picture, but the "Firewood Hoarders Club T-Shirt!" is conspicuously absent on this forum administrator?
Well, we started out at 7 am with sweatshirts on, so I didn't expect to be able to see the shirt. ....or else it'd have been on...lol
I didn't take as many pics today, but between Dawn and myself, I C/S about a cords worth, but she stacked 2.5 cords today. (Half that was from moving a stack yesterday so the tree guys could bomb that huge hickory) She is a machine! Also, my son climbing down the hickory by the cliffs!
