"Noodling" is the act of cutting a round in half (or quarters, etc) lengthwise, with the grain. so named because the saw chips are long and...
Funny how the species vary in such a short distance. We have plentiful beech and black birch in the woods, but most of my wood comes from tree...
Hi MfMc, in my parlance, hot lapping the stove just indicates that you keep loading it up because it's in the negatives and you need that 650+...
:thumbs: You've probably mentioned it, but what stoves are you looking at?
Our ten day forecast says next Saturday morning will be fire #1. Maybe the evening if my college kid comes home and we go do something all day. Or...
Cool thread! I'll list out some of what I know from my neck of the woods. I'm in the hilly part of Berkshire County MA. Sugar Maple - pro: burns...
Great setup, and a heck of a load! How much syrup so you usually make in a year? We have plenty of sugar maple around, been thinking about it for...

I did spend a couple weeks going back and forth to Waterbury, but didn't want to spend time in a hotel, so there was no scrounging time.. I'm also...
Eating the elephant - very good! Every bite keeps ya warm.
Straight to the stove! Can't beat that. :)
I measure 3.5 cord between the two. Another row stacked in front of each shed under the overhang will add another 1.3 cord if I stack 18" splits...
Perfect shot! Nice cut GrJfer! That will make some nice firewood, and cutting elevated for a while will be a treat. :) Impressive!
A full wood shed! Or in my case, two little sheds. Both finished and full as of today, though I may stack a row or two in front since I wasn't shy...
