Nice looking stacks. What elevation are you at?
Dang, that's a big stove. Mine will fit 24" left to right but I doubt I could stuff that log in there. What kind of stove do you have?
I love hand splitting as well. All my wood is hand split and noodled. I chop 16 cords a year by hand. I set up my wood similar to you when I...
About what mine are in the PNW.
Big leaf
I use 6mil as well. 10x25' roll. Cut it up to fit my stacks. Lasts about a year but I turn over all my wood each year so it works for me....
That old pipe would sure put a hurtin on a chain.
I live in the PNW and have burnt the same wood. Top cover is most important. That stuff will dry no matter how you stack it.
My moisture meter has a pad mode. I find it to be more reliable than the pins.
I'm in the PNW too. Only got one load from a tree company this year. I usually get at least 3. Me and another were just talking about how the...
Just saw the ad. It's hard to find dogwood that hasn't been destroyed by termites or some type of beetle. Rough looking stuff.
I have noticed that. I usually will travel as far north as Everett or as far south as 50th st. in Seattle and east as far as Bothell for...
Ya looks like the cherry we usually see around here but way too far gone. Dogwood is about the easiest thing to split. Where did you find the...
That's what I do. Hoard my own and hoard to sell in Sept. My cords of good hardwoods sell for a bit more than $500. There is a company in my...
Nice. Where did you get the oak from?
I'm about 15 miles north of Seattle. I just saw some walnut posted on one of the free sites.
Looks like butternut walnut. Not good. I got suckered into two loads. A lot of water and didn't burn well. That's how you gain experience though.
My two are iron wood and Osage. I guess since I just got the new insert with the combustor and reburn tubes, I have only burnt fir, a little...
Holly is a great wood, I've burnt plenty. It's bark lights quick like birch but burns a lot longer. Splitting is pretty easy too.
I got the same large Lopi hybrid insert in march. Didn't get a whole lot of time on it but I've gotten those tubes to glow red plenty, no...
