I wonder what the rough ratio of a gallon of bar oil to a cord of bucked wood is? I’ve never really given it much thought or paid much attention.
I have an 8 lb. Husky from Home Depot, lifetime warranty. I bought a Fiskars Isocore on sale and went back to the Husky. For what I do it splits...
Man, that's frustrating! Glad it was something simple, but still... Enjoy your trip!
Enjoy those grandkids - that is important time! Do you mind sharing what they found wrong with the tractor?
Prayers for a quick and complete recovery!

Wow! Glad she came out of that with relatively minor injuries. It certainly could have been worse.

Bet that was startling! Was it your horse?
May we never forget those lost, and likewise never forget those who attacked us.
If you do use tongs, you might find a simple hook handy for the other hand if handling big rounds. Because, again, you don't have to waste energy...
I've tried tongs, and still use them for moving long poles and larger brush while I'm cutting and clearing. I have a larger (up to 20" or so)...
Probably so!
