Does not sound like anything wrong with your dad's system at all. You could either separate "your wood" out from the stacks or stack it all...
Git the temp up to about 85 and she wont need any clothes..
No, soft or red maple. Still good BTU's. It's rare that Dad harvests live trees; 90% of what he burns is standing dead. He was worried about...
Yesterday after morning rain, I went over to my dad's place as he had asked me to drop a large maple with "mushrooms" growing out of it. It had...
Well, the attempt was ultimately a failure. We did, admittedly, only put in six hours of work, and wound up getting through about six full cords...
45-50 degrees F, partly cloudy and no wind. If I have to, I would prefer to cut while it's snowing, than while it's raining.
I'd like to have a mini excavator with a thumb for firewood processing. Just hold the log and cut off the ends at a comfortable height.
I got a headstart Monday and yesterday, tuned up the MS362 and bucked about a cord and a half in two hours, including moving a lot of the bucked...
Ha. I always say, "round is a shape...". Dad's fit, but me and my brother are fat boys. Still - we can work hard so it won't be too bad.
Don't have or want to spend upwards of $3k for a decent small logging winch for my 35 hp tractor. Got the bright idea that I could adapt some...
Evapo-Rust works great. Bought some a few weeks ago and was skeptical. Just drop the chain in a pan of the stuff and 24 hours later it's clean....
So I'm looking for experienced opinions. I have a jackstrawed pile of random hardwoods, maybe eight to ten different species, that has been...
I have a Dolmar PS-421. It is my go-to saw for 75% of my firewood cutting. For the rest, especially the bigger stuff, it's my Stihl MS361. I...
I bought it all on purpose. I could have done without it, instead focusing on cleaning up my own property, but the offer was too good to pass up....
I need to convince myself that I should get another sawmill. I used to have a Wood Mizer bandmill and I sold it, so it's either buy another mill...
Hah. :p I burn 9-12 cords a year. Domestic hot water comes from the OWB so I burn year round.
True cords, sir. 128 cubic feet per unit, split and stacked.
As promised some photos. What doesn't go in the wood sheds gets stacked (cribbed) on standard pallets so that I can move them around with the...
Next time build the brush pile ON the stump.
Too much wood in the yard. Need to post photos but that will be later this evening or tomorrow. April 1 came around and I had not one stick of...
