Frank, what are you doin'? Nobody out here knows what a fake cord is! Where are you really from? That's some great wood! Wish I had a honey hole...
If it smells like the lumber department at HD, you've hit pay dirt! I'm with you, second only to oak.
So much for that patent. Be nice if the lift stayed up while splitting as a work table.
Allow me to pour a little gas on this fire. How are the import duties from China?
The ratio can be adjusted just by the position of the cable attachment on the lift arm, assuming a lift similar to the hydraulic, not an overhead...
I'm liking this idea! Much faster than a winch, much simpler than a lift with dedicated cylinder.
Yes I saw it. My point was that in some manner the rounds had to be raised from ground level, negating most of the advantages of splitting...
How about a receiver mount liftgate? LARIN LIFTGATE 500 LBS (NEW) [ATTACH]
And we're back to lifting the rounds up to the splitter, but if you cut your rounds 10" long they are MUCH easier to lift. At least there's no...
The Gorillabac is a nice concept but slow, painfully so if you're actually trying to yard the rounds in from 50 ft. way. One of HF's truck bed...
Walstib! I'm not familiar with a "barley crank", is that used in beer making? [ATTACH] This has taken quite some time, I hope you finally get...
Power outages are relatively common in the mountains where I live. Even more so now the PG&E turns off the grid when it gets windy. I have 2...
No telling what might happen between now and then. If you want it, go get it.
Betting it's 7-8 face cord.
Here's an interesting ad [ATTACH] Note how fresh that oak looks, and yet he claims 10% MC. My black oak is definitely black in color by the time...
In my case it's chainsaws, generator and wife. I think it's unrealistic to expect sellers to provide dry firewood at less than a premium price....
That saw looks suspiciously clean, almost like it could belong to Bobby Maple (if he owned one). Looks like Bobby has drained his current friends...
My Redmax G5300 (Husqvarna E353) does the same thing. It lives in a clamshell plastic case which contains the mess until I'm out in the woods...

Looks like Ponderosa pine. Save the bark for fire starters and quick fires.
