Look at that target rich environment :thumbs: Logs look very solid all the way through. Of course wherever there’s locust there’s a tangled mess...
50 and dropping close to freezing by the morning. Apple and Norway maple on the menu tonight.
Not much sparking so it should be fine in a fireplace. One thing I noticed is it can leave a lot of charred chunks behind, so mixing some other...
This is the easiest splitting wood I’ve ever had, hands down. I saved a couple of the “larger” logs for milling. Hopefully I can come across some...
If anyone would like to start a PM discussing the ridiculousness of the idea that you're a R__ian stooge if you don't support what's going on in...
Warm here a 42° with more Norway/red maple and a little hickory to keep things going until later when it's supposed to hit the mid 50s.
Hard maple/rock maple is another name for sugar maple (Acer Saccharum)
Discolored heart wood is indicative of red (soft) maple.
That’s my situation. Worse yet, I have carpet in my stove room :picard: That’ll be pulled out and laminate flooring put down, hopefully sooner...
Maybe “on the cusp” was a bit generous :confused: I’ll still get a few solid heartwood splits out of these rounds, but next time I won’t bother...
If that was on the east coast I’d call it pin oak. I’m not sure what grows there, but it could be a planted pin oak.
A little more dead/down white oak today. There were larger logs there that I’d like to retrieve another time. IMO these are right on the cusp of...
It was 28° at 4:00 when I got up; 35° now. Burning a mix of elm, hickory, and Norway/red maple today.
No experience here of using supplements, but in my own observations I've noticed that regular exercise paired with a good diet helps exponentially...
Close to where I cut last weekend. Right on Aircraft Road tomorrow. Last year the state cut back the tree line from the road and pushed a lot of...
White oak :drool: Outstanding work Brad. I see plenty of splitting in your future. I’m hoping to cut a little more GMC killed white oak tomorrow...
No, but I could do some quick volume measurements based on the diameter and height. Off the top of my head there should be about 2 cords in each...
Much better, but I’ll have to find some more white oak to finish off this pile now. :) [ATTACH]
Despite the light burning year I am slowly chewing through firewood and spaces are opening up. The empty spot on the pallets is where I want to...
I didn’t watch the local “news” last night but my wife caught it. Apparently the official explanation for the strong chlorine smell and...
