Well if it's leaning the way you want it to go I don't think you need wedges - just my opinion. Definitely yes to a clear path of escape and if...
I don't think you did wrong but personally I would ask the landowner for 2 reasons: 1 is to feel perfectly sure that what I'm doing is ok and 2...
Looks like great firewood! Well done!
Great weather here yesterday, today and tomorrow but then September is gonna give us summer again around here for a couple of weeks it looks like....
Good job Kimberly! Stay with it - soon you'll have so much wood you won't know what to do with it all!
Came across this homemade splitter on Youtube the other day. Maybe someone on here wants to have a go at building it? Personally I'll stick with...
Yes send some of that cooler air to Virginia please! It's actually going to cool down a bit here but fall is still a few weeks away I think.
Nice!
I agree - never been cut in 16 years operating a saw. Not that I do anything special other than having safety first on my mind always. I also...

1 cord of white pine c/s/s for 1.5 years. Then transition to the gold standard - red oak, c/s/s 4 years, top-covered for 3.

I've been counting down the days until October. Still hot here but we are getting to the point in Virginia where evenings and mornings are...

That wood's already given you heat!
I'd take that deal if I could! Forecast is for high 80s or 90s most of the next 2 weeks. Not quite as humid though and evenings are starting to...
Hey no reason not to if you have the time - as long as you don't mind the heat. And Labor Day doesn't feel like a time to be rushed to me so if...
I clean my chimney each summer, and I check the flue with a mirror often during the burning season to make sure everything is clear. Last year...
Airflow is the key. I used to not cover mine at all but as I got further ahead and the stacks are now sitting for 4 years I wanted to keep the...
Well-stated Red Elm! At this point in the year I am getting tired of the heat and humidity for sure, and the thought of an October day cool...
