Dang! Never thought to use the splitter like that! Exactly what some of my wood needs. Thanks!
Smells like bacon...
I think he meant he's been burning for 35 years.
I wondered if My Patriot Supply was still operating. I have what they now call the AlexaPure Pro Water Filter but older and doesn't look quite...
That stinks, having oak wilt. In the sandier soil a bit east of here it's hit harder, not sure if the soil has anything to do with it. My woods...
That's genius! Hope you don't mind if I steal it for my 4-wheeler trailer. My saws aren't nearly that big but my trailer isn't as big as the box...
It's suggested here in WI that you don't 'wound' anything in the red oak family from April until October due to oak wilt. It's a fungal disease...
Darn it. With the forecast the end of garlic planting might be over. Mine went in last Thursday, mulched a few days later. Usually it goes in...

As to the guilt or no guilt, NO GUILT! As others have said, we do the work and reap the rewards. I'll share with those who would share with me...
Thanks for the heads up on the prepping thread! That's going to send me down the rabbit hole of reading/learning.... Best kept for these long...
So many good points on this thread. When the country shut down with covid there wasn't a worry about tp, kleenex, coffee or whiskey. Daughter...
Next time I put the saw to a basswood or two I'll check for a darker center. It might be that what he has was dead/dying when cut vs...
Gentlemen, I beg to differ. What he has is basswood (or some member of the same family). Check out the pic of the end cut, not smooth wood and...
Not sure but it might be the queens from mutiple nests that get together for warmth over the winter. Pure conjecture. It's my understanding only...
Chicken wire isn't much against real predators like you have. My girls get locked up tight every night except the other night I locked up early...
We had our first killing frost last Thursday night and had the first fire the same night. A cold, wet weekend so a quick fire in the morning and...
Thanks for saying this!
