Does any other species come to mind in describing a comparison? I ask because we don't have silver maple, I have no idea what that is like. Just...
Those poles sure look long, much longer than we have around here. But our source trees are southern pine, mostly loblolly, and your trees out...
I tested it as per the last sentence except not at room temp. I have not burned much cherry but when I have I have also recognized that once...
Chud, could you expand more on this use of loblolly or shortleaf pine? Do you burn it? What do you think of it? How do customers use it? Do you...
I am surprised, I scrounged a live cherry tree, it was leaning on a friend's fence and she asked me to take it. I felled it and split it and first...
That's an interesting take and might actually be a great bang for the buck now that I checked price of a small propane cylinder. Like, $6? That is...
I doubt I'd drive that far, cheers for you! Looks like BL to me.
Greg do you burn wood only in a boiler or is there something else, too? Where do you get your wood? Just curious, have never seen a boiler being...
Gosh, that is a lot of wood! You're an animal! How much wood do you burn a year? Thinking of how much energy that is that is required to heat your...
I love that you have that maul. Love the story, and here's to Dad! That is some work y'all did! And even elm lol! I am going to split some elm...
^what he said! Motorcycle on snow, I'd probably kill myself, used to have a dirt bike, had a few 'mishaps.' Now I have a Honda ATV and it serves...
TLDR... how do you find long-lasting, hot-burning splits once your fire is going good? = Of course, 'ideal' could be debated. Let's assume that...
I don't know if you are serious, Jeff, but you might be, as I have pondered that very thing. Thinking that something like white oak, you could,...
I think tupelo to most folks is what we call black gum. I refuse to split that one! I am amazed that you do! We have lakes here that are chocked...
WOW. That is a lot, wasn't aware you are up to that level. I'd be worried, too. We have had hardly any winter here, it has been another warm one....
For bundles, you'd have more narrow splits, so, it would dry much faster, I would think. FWIW, Google provided this below concerning using a fan....
WeldrDave have you ever burned sweetgum? Notice any offensive odor? Some make that claim. As for elm, I have found it to be stringy, yes, but it...
T.Jeff Veal, 14+18 = 32, so, 32 could mean two 16" rounds... why did you do 14+18? Just curious. Looking at your thread, it strikes me and reminds...
I always marvel at you east coast guys having big trees that are so beautifully ROUND lol. Gorgeous wood.
EODMSgt how do you keep the covers atop your stacks without them blowing off? Your stacks are about as good as it gets, I've always thought that.
