The wind is what really drives the wood consumption for us with this old perforated railroad builder's home we have. Thankful as can be for the...
Teens here, real feel of -8. Just loaded fat with hickory and red oak, and a little pine to fill the crevices. Big stack of the same next to the...
Sounds silly, but sometimes it comes down to the smell test - at least for me with my "tweener" experience level. When you get a positive ID on a...
Here is the thread I had in mind. Phase 2 of orchard project
Lol! Yeah, it can be a little chilly during reloads sometimes! :) I don't usually mind that part too much, but there have been a couple times when...
First thing is that I'm nervous about the ability to buy a "simple"owb fresh off the assembly line with the epa doing their thing. Aside from the...
Beautiful lawn, and some very nice looking rounds. Isn't it nice to have a bed full of stuff that you know will be fun to split? :)
Teens here now with -4 coming Saturday night. Burning pine all day since I was home a few times while getting more red maple from grandpa's yard....
Owb is the way to go if you're nervous. I can get ten hours on mine even in the very coldest weather we see here (negative teens sustained with...
Sorta off-topic, but I've read that apples will fruit in alternating years when left to their own devices. I've also been told that they won't...
Beautiful day to get some work done! Watch out for your small dog there, that owl is looking a little peckish. ;) I've got a baldy and a coupe...
Just loaded the owb with pine, boxelder, and a mystery split that I couldn't identify in the dark. No bark, pretty small split, but heavy.. As I...
Yes sir - we are into the mud now in some sunny areas. Supposed to cool off a bit next week, I am sure mother nature has one more good storm left...
That Apple is some heavy stuff, right? I have only done up a couple Apple trees, enough to give me years worth of smoker fuel and a few owb loads....
Good stuff! We were in the 60s here today, great weather to work in. Did you hit 70 our there in the valley? You're around Northampton, right?...
Welcome! This is a fine group of enablers here. Wrong place to break the addiction, but a great place for positive reinforcement! ;)
Got another three loads of the red maple from grandpa's yard today. The tree service noodled down the trunk pieces, which probably made things...
Looks like a nice, relaxing place to be. I love the long splits, too. They'd be perfect for my owb at that length. I wish my splitter would take a...
Pine in the owb - last night's load (mostly poplar and pine, couple splits of hickory to keep the coals) went a cool 20 hrs. :) Loving the brief thaw.
Is it mostly lodgepole pine out that way?
