The totes we filled so far [ATTACH]
I cut ironwood once. It threw sparks like a grinder and had me thinking something was wrong with my saw.
It’s a big rabbit hole. I am shooting rats tonight with my suppressed 22lr. They are very skittish now and will not come out for quite some time...
We got the 4 totes in the picture above filled. There is enough left for 1 more tote. Have to build another batch of em. I have a pallet of...
I’d say some species of oak. I have seen many kinds. Some are stringy and some pop right open. We just split up a pile of oak and there were at...
my mom just had her second knee replacement a few days ago.
I agree. It is supposed to be around 90 here, so I may be spending a lot of time in the basement.
We built a few more totes and then stacked some of it. It was really hot so we didn’t get much done. We should have at least 5 totes full when we...
Over 1 cord per hour is good for a single wedge!
That’s not a bad pile at all for 12 minutes! You’d have twice that if someone was feeding you logs.

We made a big dent in the wood pile today. It was pretty warm today, but it cooled off nicely as the rain passed nearby. We didn’t spend a lot of...
That thing sure is working hard just to pump fluid. You can hear it really lug on the return stroke. 23 gpm through 3/4” lines is crazy. The...
Nice score! We got a big honey locust last year. We hauled it out in 2 trips, and the trailer was heavy. It does split nicely.
I tried out the boring bar tonight. Fiddled with it for a while on the part of the tube I had to trim off anyway. I got it dialed in, cut the tube...
The new boring bar was a bust, literally. I had a piece of steel laying in the shop that would work, so I chucked it up in the lathe and broke my...
We spent the evening cleaning up part of the basement, moving some things and making more room so we could move the lathe. The headstock was close...
I have had ads pop up from different states as well. No idea why.
I spent part of the day today working on one of my boats. It’s a 16’ StarCraft super sport. I grew up in one and they are nice for a few people...
I have been pretty busy building firewood totes and splitting wood, but with the temps in the 80’s, it gives me a good excuse to play in the...
