Great pic! Frame worthy. They love helping Daddy at that age, don't they? My newest is almost one year old, so she'll be ready to help pretty...
I use a Brinkmann propane smoker (yes, I got lit up for it! :)) for the same reason - set and forget. I start with a pan of lump charcoal and wood...
Lol! We like to "compete" with folks in the vicinity. Wife gets into it, too - "hey that lady up the road got another load of ash dropped off, you...
Nice rack! I use pallet racks also, but with diagonal supports. My floor pallets are the big oak monstrosities, two or three years on most and no...
Dry pine (like, really dry) is rocket fuel. Burns very hot, especially in small splits, and very quickly. Folks who burn unseasoned wood get their...
I won't go out of my way for poplar when I've got pine bring dropped off for free, but if it's an easy grab, what's to lose? Nice sized wood...
Great pics and nice work with the boy, Rope. The men and women on this board, and a couple acquaintances here give me hope for the next generation...
I like that you subtly showed them how it's done by offering to get together on the pine and split the profit.
Looking good there. Love the photo with that old tractor's wheel and fender ahead of the cart. I'll be burning my first black walnut this year....
Should have asked first, I'm sure you would have been fine with it. Communication with one's neighbors seems to be a lost art nowadays. Upsets me,...
I suffer from procrastination disease sometimes, too. Best way for me to stop it was to find an hour here, hour there. Even two or three times a...
Most of the houses around here are on the "pile of rocks" foundation, too. Hell on drywall if your joints are tight, but I don't think they'll be...
Yep, mine stays on the Deere. The mounting job is questionable, but it keeps things level enough that my air filter is no longer swimming in 10w30. :)
My usual plan has gotten a lot more organized and kept the yard worlds neater as I got it figured out. Processing happens on far side of garage,...
30s tonight and 40s tomorrow, sticking to softwood in half loads since the wind is gone. -edit- Duvekot, your stove it's a work of art! Have you...
Also should extend my condolences on your qb going down. I'm a Pats fan, and would love to see a Brady/Rogers Super Bowl before either of them...
Good job there, Horkn. Looks like a gratifying day. Guess I'll need to invest in a trailer one of these days - I really don't like towing the...
Gotta love a nice pile of ash. Nice work! Are those rounds the same length as the splits, or do they need to be trimmed? They look my size - 24".
Wind chill will be single digits tonight, 14 if it was still. Maple uglies and white pine this afternoon, think it'll be hemlock and beech over...
In order, spruce (farm tree), white pine (forest), red oak (twisted up yard bird), and black Locust (lake side.) Love the stories behind these...
