That’s what the brits call a trunk. Trying to talk the neighbor into bringing his truck into the equation. He has a fire pit and a fire place, so...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I got another boot plus size serving at the all you can heat, red maple buffet. I tried to pick up all the shorter rounds I...
A little deflating looking at the pile of results, but I think I’m conflating the work involved with the maple and the cherries i’ve been working...
Looks a lot like the Bradford pear I chopped up. According to the resources, 2-yr to cure and good heat output, but the depare rages about it’s...
I thought the rule of thumb was to go halfsies on the results if someone is supplying the wood. If he really wants it all then you charge half...
Just about 2.. filed up the bar oil too.
I cookied off some of the maple so that it would fit nicer in my stove as a warm up before I attacked the cherry. Chainsawing is a lot more work...
Thanks, great tip. I have some ratchet straps I’ve used for a surf rack that should work. It’ll be a big help for some of the flowering cherry...
There is five times this amount there to be picked up in my neighborhood. The neighbor said they tried to save a couple hundred $$ by not having...
I have been thinking about the least intrusive way to rack up a three year plan, and I was noticing from the photo that maybe behind the shed next...
Not bad for a city slicker, amiright? It looked like a lot more wood until I “staged” it in the back yard.. some of it is a little long for my...
Are you going to burn that? I am still working on my three year plan and could use some seasoned oak for my racks ;)
Wet and chilly today, but not cold. My ma is visiting and requested a “little fire” so I carted in the pile of odds and ends and mossy bits. A...
Maybe a silly question, but do you yank all the nails before burning?
No problem, I hear you. I have limited experience with a little electric chain saw on logs that were already down and a little nervous about...
Oh yeah, I bought some chaps and safety equipment and going to borrow a 24” chainsaw from the neighbor.
Any tips for felling the remaining two? I’ve been reading up on my hinge cut and have a couple wedges.should I clear all the branches I can first...
I’m failing at not handling the wood too much.. I keep restacking and still have cutting to do. I also stacked the green Calgary pear outside the...
The sweet aroma of cherry wood is what caught my eye. I like to soak a piece in pineapple juice and slow cook salmon on the Webber. I took a few...
I got the two rotten puny ones down... I think i’m going to need a chain saw for the big boys. On the plus side, i’ll have the sweetest smelling...
