[ATTACH] i had no idea there was such a thing but found this on CL. It has the same handle shape as my Sotz but makes that maul look like a toy....
[ATTACH] 38 and moist so we're burning again and the new pup approves
I used to do the overnight lunker thing, now I use all medium sized splits and load appropriately for the conditions. Cold temps means packing the...
Seems like I can never shut it down til mid May. Still a few mornings of low 40s to go with a high around 60 means lighting her up in the AM. No...
Looks like a nice haul indeed. I seem to recall hearing DF is equal to or better than many hardwoods for heat output making it pretty desirable...
[ATTACH] Nice hinge work there. Noticed the Audi wagon in the background. Great cars and I don’t get why Americans don’t seem to embrace the...
Funny, I’m in tick central but never have a problem as long as there’s OPE involved. Not sure if it’s the fumes, vibrations or sawdust on...
Just when I thought I was out....... they pull me back in! Temps doing the 60 to 40 swing daily for another 2 weeks looks like I’ll be lighting...

[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I took advantage of the prime cutting weather and set out to re up Mom’s wood supply. Grandpa dropped this one around 60 years...
I have seen your technique and you have some damm sharp looking stacks there. Guess you’ve learned a few tricks over 60 years of doing this. I...
Am I crazy for not wanting any of these in my stacks? I have a source nearby and free, but just can’t warm up to the idea of all that chicom...
Looks like winter is still going strong in the land o lakes. Ideal conditions for wood work. IMO, around 30 is best and anything over 60 is too hot.
A little slow on the reply here, but the shed was fine and is full of, you guessed it, EAB wood!
[ATTACH] Good to know. I’ve burnt tons of silver and cherry and they usually split easy but this is tree service wood and it’s littered with...
