It was another sweaty humid day. The way the boy and I were sweating, it might as well have been 95. But we all had fun, ate home cooked food,...
Day 3 on the roadkill ash score. As soon as I found out I wasn't needed at work, I assembled a search and rescue team, and we were gone within the...
Thats cool. Hate the little buggers in the house, but love seeing them in the woods!
So with that-all said, what is the safest way to attack a pile like that? Without moving it one stick at a time.... Top down perhaps, with the...
I would never suggest tresspassing, but if you knew someone in a railyard, particularly on maintainence of way, they have sticks of rail just...
My brush is a wee bit short too. I got 25', and the brush is just shy of. But its not worth buying another 3 or 4 sections to use only 1 or 2,...
Same here. But, this is a pretty quiet road, and the cones did the trick. People slowed as soon as they saw the first one. I wouldnt want to...
To your point Brad, the wood was just beautiful. I really wish I had a mill and a grapple. And more yard to dry the product in.
I did not yet. Im tempted to remove it, its just going to rust and rot away. I forgot if there are markings on the spike to figure out where it...
Good idea. Course it would be cool to try a heavier material too. It just needs to be neat and tidy looking. If youre up this way tomorrow...
This year I have split 12 ish cord by hand. The Isocore maul is my weapon of choice. I too split on the ground, over my right shoulder, or the...
Here for the record: Moved 2 loads in the new wagon so far. Both roadkill scrounges, not far from the farm, everything split on site. One load...
Thanks!! second load split by hand. Its also nice not having splitter trash. some splits ended up a little larger. This stack can sit for 2...
Well, one set of hands took a day off. Stumpy and I cut and split a full load, about half a cord. I stacked it 6" overhanging the pallet edges,...
Heading out again today. Will have 2 helpers. Hoping to get a good load today. Cutting to 20" starting today, for the rest of the summer.
Brad is right, it is a special kind of crazy. We are a driven people. Those with me have cut in toasty 90°+ days, rain, and been seen splitting...
We jacked oir stove up about 12". I used some nicer looking pavers, and a steel plate atop each. Sometime I'll do something different, maybe...
HHO just went up from $4.07 to $4.11 (200G bulk). I have only been tracking this loosely weekly, not daily. Not sure if this the beginning of...
Yup, liking the trailer. No more worrying aboit overloading it! The old one moved us to the house, hauled our entire roof to the dump, a piano,...
Funny I was also going to suggest fire starters. A pinch of noodles in the egg cartons, pour a little hot wax in, let them cool, and thats it! I...
