Looks like I will use more wood in March than I did in February for the 2nd, possibly 3rd year in a row.
Definitely not red maple
I have been skiing in Vermont the past 2 weekends and trying to cut some during the week. One more ski weekend coming up in a couple days and...
Temperature and sun was great but 30-35mph winds are no fun out in the field. Tough to keep the chips and dust out of your eyes on a day like that.
How many total trees did you remove? That looks like it was a big job.
Where's the new splitter with the log lift?
End cut looks just like red maple...the bark not so much.
Been cutting a lot of oak recently. Mostly shorter logs and some with knots and a few crotches. Not the easiest or quickest to process but...
It's not just an out east thing, it's east vs west within the same time zone which can be as much as a full hour difference between sunrise and...
I will never understand people who pay in full before the job is complete but nice score for you. Nice straight logs
No. It has passed the Senate but still needs to pass the House and get presidential signature. I like later hours of daylight in the summer and...
It's been March here in NJ since the cold snap ended just before New Year's Day. 90+ days of the same crappy weather.

Goldilocks wood!
Dad used to "prune" ours about every 10 years. He used a chainsaw and reduced them from 10 feet high down to about 3-4 feet high. Same with...
How did it hold up over time? Just curious.
It's definitely hit or miss. Some pops apart easily like soft maple and then there's the ones that don't. Either way, you can't beat the smell...
That certainly isn't a bargain.
Those knotty pieces are nothing but time suckers.
