    Buy a Fiskars...seriously. Lifetime free replacement warranty. Ive broken two x27 axes and an Isocore maul since being a FHC member (3.5 years) and they have replaced all of them. Easy to file claim and fast response.

    Since i split 90% of my wood with a hydro i doubt ill break another anytime soon.

    They broke one of them last year- one of their mails. Not sure if I have it around. I know I don’t have the receipt. What’s the process?

    Looks like they just customized it for logs with a right hand twist... :whistle:

    go on their website and look under warranty claims and follow the prompts. You should get an automated email. Within a few days another email giving you instructions on how to file the claim. Actually quite simple. I got a new ax within a couple weeks. Covid may slow it down a bit.

    A view of my piles from a distance and one where I’m standing on my dump truck

    Looks great Joe! We're pushing 80 cord now and that's getting pretty full. I've run some deliveries, but the log yard is full. Gonna lease an acre of my neighbor's cornfield across my driveway to stack logs in this fall after harvest is done.

    It’s been a while since my last update so here goes. School started on Wednesday…boo!

    I did do some fresh split deliveries back in early spring and I started fall deliveries a few weeks ago. So far I have delivered 55 cords and I currently have about 35 ordered. I’m looking to get 15+ cords out this weekend. It’s also looking like 300 should be a shoe-in even though I said I had no interest in doing that much. Haha. Going to be a long delivery season. Below are pics of what’s there now.

    I know the work isn’t done yet, but we’ll done! Assuming you’re finished with processing and just focused on deliveries now?

    Hahaha! Nice work Mr. there's no way I'm doing 300 cord. I remember when "The March to 150" seemed like a massive goal. Well done sir, well done!

    My helpers split some while I’m out on delivery. That will be for next year. Main focus though is getting all of this to the customer
