I'm not sure on his reasoning for the sudden interest. When he was little he ran the splitter while his grandpa put the wood on the beam but that...
Not that he'd admit to.
I'll definetly get some pics of him splitting after he gets the hang of it. AND keep the receipt....
He seemed disappointed about the new maul but hey, he can try the old one before he gets his hands on the Isocore. I'm sure he'll appreciate the...
You're starting a whole new trend. Congrats :salute:
I have an X25 already. Something with more heft will get me further. Nope, LC has nothing to do with location. I'm about 2 1/2 hours...
Yesterday I was telling the 17 year old grandson that I'll need his help in the near future getting some oak rounds up on the splitter. He...
I think a freeze dryer would be a blast to have, unfortunately it's not on the horizon at the prices asked. I have 3 Excalibur forced air...
Yup, same process. When I'm whacking chickens, even the ones for sale, I keep a good portion of the fat for rendering. When all the butchering...
Nothing like chicken fat for frying taters or greasing the fry pan for scrambled eggs.
I was raised with that stuff! When one of my folks asked us with younger legs to get them a beer we got the first sip out of the bottle (we...

Breed has everything to do with age when they start laying. Heavier birds take longer to mature so a Wynadotte takes longer than a Leghorn. I put...
Eben Junction? I've heard of those and seen pics but haven't visited.
I've been to all of those except the Adventure Mine. Whitefish Point has a fantastic shipwreck museum with the original bell from the Edmund...
They're worth making kindling/fire starting material. Like Brad said, it's fast drying. Split now it's ready for fall.
I see them in red oak and nothing else. Of course we don't have most of the exotic woods (hedge, hickory, beech, white oak, etc.) alot of you...
Scenes like that do stick in the mind. I still see a pile of dead rabbits that were in a chicken pen. It wasn't a neighbors dog but one of our...
How sad and infuriating. Glad you have some left.
I can't imagine still pulling out of the garden. My last goodies came out in late October. Lucky you :-)
