Haven’t updated this much lately, the weather has been rain or snow every couple of days for the last 3 weeks. Got ready to take the snow blower...
Moved the last tote of hardwood inside yesterday as we got 3” of new snow. That’s 6 cord of hardwood, and probably half a cord or so of poplar for...
I’ve been thinking about this as well, not the quantity of wood, but one large wood shed or numerous smaller ones. There was a 20’ by 20’ wood...
In dealing with storm damaged wood this winter, I was reaching for the 550XP with 18” bar quite often. The 372XP with 24” bar is usually on the...
When I was shopping for our big tractor, I had pretty much decided on a JD 5055E, or Kubota of that size, I think a 6060, I don’t remember. In...
I put mine up on 6”-8”dia. logs to keep them from freezing to the ground. A friend recommended it, and it worked well this winter. Last year I...
I started with putting it all in my stump dumps, and then moved onto using it in the wood yard. I separate any kindling wood, and the rest gets...
Today’s progress, not as much done as I wanted. Neighbor came over for a visit which was a nice break. Running the 372XP with a 24” bar all day...
Just a one guy show. The frost in the ground is quickly leaving as temps have been pushing 50 for a couple days. The snow is also mostly gone,...
Spent yesterday bucking up firewood logs from the pile. Made a good sized dent by dinner time, and called it a day. It was getting foggy and not...
Finished the afternoon with a third tree that gave a 18’ log and a 24’ log. Didn’t take action shots for some reason. Here is the tractor all...
Spent sometime this afternoon in the woods getting some hemlock logs out before we loose all of the snow and frost. Unless it gets cold again I’m...
Put the 4052R to work today. Cut up two hemlocks that blew over onto our trail. Shortest log was 24’ long and had to steer with the cutting...
I’ve noticed that most of my red oak splits are 3x3 or 4x6 for some reason. I keep it separate from the ibc totes. Same with poplar, have a whole...
Went up to the wood yard after lunch to cut the logs into 8’ lengths and add to the firewood pile. The pile is getting big, 8’ wide, 7’ high avg,...
Thanks! My FIL was trying to get me to cut limbs down to 1” diameter for wood as he sees leaving it as wasteful. He cuts his wood that way on his...
Have been posting more green tractor pics lately than orange mini excavator pics. Was preoccupied this morning with our driveway washed out due to...
I’m not a fan of the tractor supply implements, usually cheap steel, and won’t hold up to lots of use. Don’t get me wrong behind a 25-30hp...
My father in law used his 1025R to lay an invisible fence around his yard for their neighbors dogs. He only went down 6”-8” with it and said it...
If you have a 3pt hitch with a 2” receiver on it you can use a Heavy Hitch pipe layer attachment. Close to $400 with the shank and receiver piece....
