Colder here. What's your temp? What ya burnin?

Rope Ive been looking at getting something similar to this and have heard others say they are not all created equal. Your testimony to this manufacturers product has me curious. Do I see a set in your gear? Its hard for me to tell. I really need to get something like this as I dont like bending down to pick up a round let alone two and I often have to travel further to the truck with an arm load than Id like. Are they very heavy by themselves? Good to see you're getting out. Cheers.

 

-18c/0f here tonight. Im waiting for a bit of coals to burn down so I can do the customary overnight burning of larch. Watching Uriah Heep music on youtube and checking out whats what on FHC.

 

Still stuck in a cold snap. Will get colder yet tonight. Brrr....poplar n heating oil.

 

chilly, chilly....

 

I can see how the Logox is a big help with snow-covered rounds! Wouldn't like to be hugging those.

 

We hit 50 yesterday and I actually opened a window for a little while to let in the fresh air and let a little heat out. It was chilly enough in the morning for a little wood, but I overdid it some. Didn’t have to restart a cold stove at least. It’s still 79 inside on coals, 30 outside and icy. Up and down temperatures the next several days but it beats another cold snap.

 

Back to 29° here, after highs above 60° Monday and Tuesday. So, back to burning red maple again. I got a lot done the last two days, got the latest black locust score all cut and out of the front yard, and most of it split and stacked in the shed. Still some more to do, but Friday is another warm day, though maybe some rain.
The mailman told me one of the neighbors asked him about the woman with all the wood in her yard. A suburban legend!

 

I woke up to 49 degrees at 5:30 and heavy rain, even had lightning overnight, Ground is like a swamp everywhere. Lab pups slept in and weren't excited to go out. I may start a fire to warm the damp chill.

 

Currently 12*, loading stove with mulberry, oak and locust for the day. We will see if idiot room mate messes with it today.

Pretty good discussion on them in the Chainsaw & Tools forum Sean . Got one for Christmas & am very impressed.

 

His response was "Oh, you mean the crazy cat opossum lady?"

 

It’s money well spent. I am not sure about the exact weight, it’s got heft but manageable. Best surprise was no bending. What about using a small get sled and pull rounds to the truck. No bending to put them in the sled and none to get them out and back in the truck.

You're right that there are a lot of great (and some not-so-great) forestry hand tools on the market, but for the most part, they're one dimensional. As you can see on the thread amateur cutter posted, for over the past year, members of this forum have been discussing and putting the LogOX to the test, and like Rope, have posted about their great experiences, which really speak for it. I've had the pleasure of meeting a number of FHC members in person at events, like the Paul Bunyan Show in Ohio, and have had similar conversations. To answer your question, fully assembled (with timberjack attachment) the LogOX only weighs 12.0 lbs while the Hauler by itself weighs 6.0 lbs.

As you can see in this video, we've designed the LogOX to be the most versatile, compact/portable, and rugged forestry hand tool on the market. It's a reliable replacement for multiple long handled tools that disassembles to fit inside a 28" carrying bag, which then easily fits on a snowmobile or ATV, and gives the user everything they need to process a downed tree. It's also Made in USA with a lifetime warranty.



We're also proud to offer our fellow firewood hoarders a $15 members discount on the 3-in-1 Forestry MultiTool and Forester Package with the code FHC at www.thelogox.com

I'd be happy to answer any other questions.

The polar vortex can leave anytime now...

 

These temperature swings are getting old. Supposed to rise tonight through noon tomorrow and top out at 62, then fall until we bottom out at 10 Friday night. 52 degrees in under 48 hours.

Last week we had a 70 degree swing from Thursday to Sunday. - 8 to 62.
