You can see a short, covered stack of Ash behind the oak. I have a bunch more Ash rounds out at Bob's that needs to come home. That should finish...
When I was cutting the oak rounds I was in the sun. Luckily the beech is in the woods, and loading that up is shaded too. I dump all the rounds...
Thank you!
I went back and cut another load of red oak and beech. Finished off my 1/2 cord stack of Oak and started another. Beech stack is just about done...
I didn't take any pictures when I was cutting it up. I can next time I am out there. There is a little bit of the trunk left and it was pretty...
The trunk looked nice and straight. But when I ran it thru my splitter, some pieces broke apart and went flying. It was hard to read the wood....
Figured I would start a new thread instead of continuing my red oak one. I got permission to take the beech from my new favorite cutting spot. I...
Thanks Dennis!

I'm guessing it is close to a full cord. Thanks for the kind words everyone.
Brad, you got me beat. I had a 1986 f150 in 1990-1992. 4x2, 300-6 carb. 4 speed. It ran well but wasn't fun in Michigan winters. I swear we got...
Thanks! It is a 1997 F350, last year for this body style. I have owned it since 2013. I cummins swapped it in 2017.

I cut this red oak back in Jan '25. It was a blow over that looks like it had some carpenter ants in the bottom. Rest of the tree was all solid. I...
That’s a good idea. I only have a small grate. It helps, but bigger would be better.
I couldn't agree more. Doesn't hurt to hang on to them. I'm sure the price of copper will only go up, just like everything else.
Yea I’m just not a fan of it. It’s very uncomfortable for me.
