I have only about 2 weeks worth of wood left in my woodshed, although I've got piles elsewhere in case the weather goes back ugly in late March....
I see that one log, on the splitting block, comes with instructions on which end to split from. :rofl: :lol:
Nice thing about those split pieces is that the two sides are actually quartersawn wood. Pretty stable now that the stress is removed, and it...
Lowes doesn't know the difference between loggers chain and bicycle chain. It's just a name they give it. You need to just look at the specs and...
It really depends on the municipality and their rules, and the landowner too. Most towns near me maintain a right-of-way for the road, typically...
Some of those look like they'll need to be split again.
I always split my wood in the shape of cheese. I like cheese.
Can't imagine they're very dry. Timberwolf, among others, makes a splitter with a 10' capacity - the TW-10RC.
100% wood for both heat and domestic hot water. OWB has a propane burner (dual-fuel model) which I rarely use.
Rarely is the weather in January through March cooperative enough to cut, but there's almost no snow on the ground and it's supposed to be in the...
I mix it all up. Sometimes I can have a dozen different species to choose from, all within arm's reach. For those wicked cold nights, I just use...
I've got a Griswold "chicken fryer" - can't remember the number on it, it's basically a deep #10. I bought it a couple of years ago, I got it on...
'Nother vote for yellow. Get to it fast before it rots on you.
[ATTACH] I'll play along. Vertical spar in the center is a shagbark hickory about 20" diameter, broken clean off at about 15' off the ground....
I don't bother. I got enough crap to carry. Like others said, if the sight of a 300-lb bearded dude throwing a running chainsaw around isn't...
I tend to use "floor sweepings" - dead and punky stuff that I find laying around the woods - until the snow flies. I'm starting to run out of the...
It all depends on the tree. Standing dead in the woods, good hardwood and solid - I might go down to 1-2". Especially something like hornbeam....
Oh yeah it's a hot knife through butter on anything under 6" or so.
Ok educate me here. Don't know as much as I thought I did. I have a bone stock MS 361. Running 8T and a 16 inch bar with 72LGX chain. I'm going to...
Check with LL Bean then. It's all good stuff, good warranty.
