A SOTZ Monster Maul. Very popular in the late 70's during the firewood heating craze post-OPEC fiasco. Many ads in the outdoor magazines of the...
Welcome. Looks like the Vermonters finally chimed in. The left coast is one of my bucket list places to visit someday. Maybe they will let me...
Pretty sure that's black birch. Any birch is good BTUs though.
That is a really nice wood box. I like the dual purpose as a seat. Make it yourself?
If you really want to have fun, find an Echo CS-1201.
9 cords, cut and split. Probably another 20-30 in unprocessed wood.
As you are in Japan I would look for either a Makita or Shindaiwa. Both are excellent professional-quality saws. Makitas are German-made...
I hope to get six months out of it. However, this year is a bit of an experiment for me. From January 2017 through this past May I was burning...
Agreed, but then my wife would ask me what the heck I was doing putting firewood in the middle of the kitchen floor. :whistle:
You can get a 7x12 double axle dump trailer easily enough that will hold at least a cord of wood.
Nothing special. As long as I have a nice hot bed of coals, it's usually never an issue, I could probably burn a wet sponge if the coals were...
Currently running Oregon 20LPX on my 421 and 72LGX on my 6400. Am happy with the performance. I sharpen after every two tanks of gas or if I get...
I split some poplar (aspen) rounds last week that had been left in the round since January 2019. About 14" diameter. They were nice and light, I...
Took me a while to drag the photo off my phone, but this is indeed an actual photo of my firewood supply, sum total of the wood available to me...
The attached pictures show the same piece of wood. This is red oak, cut in late 2017 (2 years old now) and left on the ground, in the round, in...
There is money to be made around here for seasoned split firewood, but it's not now. It's in late February or early March when people plan poorly...
Lot of good answers to the question here, but regarding stacking too tight - my father was always the same way, fill in every little hole with...
Brad, some of that is pine and some is spruce. Either way, treat them the same (cut, split and DRY) and they will be good firewood.
Same process splitting fence rails. Basically you start a steel wedge at one end, and get the split started, and then put hardwood or plastic...
I think he stuck that thing into his ear one too many times. His vids still show up in my feed occasionally but I just delete them.
