Nice haul T.Jeff Veal ! We have been just about shut down this winter by the weather. I had high hopes after a cold Thanksgiving, but that lasted...
Looking good Locust Post ! We've had way too much rain here to do any logging. Just cutting in the log yard on my piles. Some year we'll get...
Log it, buck it, split it, stack it in the shed next to the boiler, or in the stacks just the other side of the boiler. Rotate where I pull from...
Welcome CoalCountryConvert ! My .02 worth. Split as Firewood Bandit demonstrates, makes a big difference. I don't top cover till it goes in the...
This particular technique works extremely well in dirty wood. I learned it here a find I can get 2-3 times the chain life in dirty logs. I too cut...
Weather here remains unchanged since this time last week. Cloudy damp, occasional rain and temps in the upper 30's to low 40's. December came in...
37F here, Oak and some Pine in the boiler. Cloudy damp and nasty.
Your operation looks pretty efficient for a one man show. Glad your loggers can still get in the woods, mud and warm is killing production here....
If you have a hydraulic splitter, just pin the wood cross ways on the beam a few pieces at a time.
That was very nice work indeed! I've worked a few similar to that and they require a bit of thinking and a lot of caution. I love my winches and...
Yep, I could easily burn thru a 500 gal tank in 2 1/2 to three weeks during the winter between house and shop. Maybe more if it was cold like it...
Or running the splits thru a box wedge and into a conveyor. 2-4 hundred cord per year is about 395 more than you wanna handle any more than you...
It's 32F oh the horror of it! I had to put on long sleeves to run to the grocery store earlier. This weather is stupid for New Years eve. Looks to...
Nice work Biddleman ! BL FTW.
I agree with the majority here on a "box store" type splitter. Higher tonnage usually = slower cycle time though. Best speed enhancement...
I like the 2 in 1 sharpener for a quick touch up in the field, but as was said, I pull the flat files out for 3-4 sharpenings. I prefer the carry...
Yep, very therapeutic. Here's some pictures of my dwindling log piles to make you feel better. If it doesn't freeze up soon I am going to order...
Wood was certainly green and also wet. I don't know about actual freezing due to it being 40+ when it happened yesterday on the .404 bar. Imma do...
Well, great job fellas, we've infected another one. :DBut seriously FarmerJ , it's great to have you here and you'll like that 362. Only thing...
I found some bar tip grease that I had around from years ago, whatever that is. I really don't think the tips are bad, they spin free and easy...
