    Totally appropriate for this time of year. I have actually delivered a stuck lamb using baler twine, before I got a fancy cable one.

    Cole and I cut some sugar maple at walt ’s a couple years ago that we figured were 850lbs per 18” block. It’s amazingly difficult to keep the blocks the same length on top vs bottom using a 36 or 42” bar

    I haven’t looked at that chart since you had the guessing game on ope. But I remembered yours coming out to 65-70lb/cuft

    Been there done that Mike. I did get the snare finally. That super lube is is the cats meow for lambing time. Hope lambing time goes smooth for you this year. I gave most of my sheep supplies to some new shepherds near me. I did keep a couple of lamb feeding bottles. Just in case something shows up.:whistle:

    3+ cords of free heat... It's worth every ounce of effort, especially since I don't have property to harvest my own wood.
