I don’t get out much these days, but I was out of bird seed and those little buggers are something to look at while chained to my desk at home....
Thanks BuZZ. I may have to put that to use. I was planning to be busying processing tops after my uncle has his land timbered, but the two man...
I understand where a home owner is coming from in that scenario. The couple times I asked if people wanted downed limbs removed they didn't want...
Ain't that the truth. They act like they are paying your heating bill. Anybody carry around a wavier saying you won't sue if you get hurt...
Agree with black birch. Your area is loaded with that stuff. I've cut acres of saplings on a hunting camps property. They want the nut trees to...
Good progress. 12 chains should last a really long time if you are only hand filing. Like 100 cords of bucking long time. Taking time when...
Looks like maple to me. The American hop hornbeam AKA Ironwood AKA musclewood around me has smoother bark.
Right on guys, BALSA WOOD! Load up the stove with a few splits and it's pure enjoyment for the next 2-3 minutes. :D
Since I only process firewood recreationally, I can afford to jump around to do other tasks while cutting. If I am cutting big rounds that...
Nice tractor. What year? I will be looking for a small tractor in 3-5 years. Did you buy privately?
Lucky, power always comes back on 30 minutes AFTER I get out the generator and run cords all over the house.
A tornado briefly touched down 20 minutes from me. Took a roof off a daycare, only minor injuries. In my town, we had exactly five inches of...
Thanks. That was at my old house. Corner lot, no fence, so I made a "free" one out of firewood. Gave us more privacy and got a bunch of...
Agree on Chestnut oak. I have processed a few of them. Wait to split until late fall if you want the bark separated from the wood. Did you try...
Never got a pic of it, but I made a 6' X 12' corral out of steel wire remesh. I bought a 150' roll from Lowes to make a ton of tomato cages. I...
So many people have those hitch mounted racks. Add a cooler and some beach chairs and license plate is blocked. Same deal with bike racks. I...
Same here. Asking $75-$100 is common. Volume is low so cost is high.
No confirmed kills for me, but I have to be up to a dozen mice that fled as soon as a round was bucked off the log. Its neat watching them go...
But that piping hot bar and dull chain is drying the wood as it cuts right?:D So it will surely been under 20% MC by the first day of fall right?
Nice shirt! I used to live a half mile from the Manayunk Brew Pub in my post college years. The body is good at adapting to conditions if you...
