Your goats have nice coats! They look all warm and fuzzy, from a distance anyway. I see one of the babies, it's quite big. It does feel good to get ahead with the wood supply! Especially with a little one in the house, one less thing to worry about. Very substantial stacks, and pics of your log load please, when it arrives.
It's probably somewhere in the range of 4 cords stacked. The very back stack of oak is single row, the other ones are double row. If I remember correctly from stacking like that last year each of the double row stacks is around 1.75 cord. I'll have to measure sometime to be sure.
You got it! I'm looking forward to it. I have a bunch of trees laying around in the woods it is just such a time suck to drag them out especially since I have to go to the farm and bring a skid steer up to do it. This will give me so much more leeway as far as getting ahead. The load I'm getting is supposed to be locust, cherry and some highly valuable black walnut. He said its gonna be mostly smaller diameter stuff but I said that is fine cause I'll only have to split it once that way.
I will let you know as I haven't actually cut any yet. I was thinking that will be the best approach though. Most of that stuff is very very thin so kind of a waste of time. I will have kindling for years to come. Free wood is the best wood right?
Lookin real good bud!!! Thinking about heading over to Christians lot on Saturday. I don't hunt so I'll need something to do while everyone else is out chasing Bambi.
I gotta get back over there sometime soon. I will be out chasing bambi on Saturday though so no wood cutting for me.
And so it begins..... Ruger guarding the slab pile.... For reference the fence post is 5 feet tall. I will probably stack to about that height. That is all I got from what was in the saw jack from yesterday. This is gonna take longer than expected. Most of my time was spent stacking and refilling the saw jack. Cutting took about 30 seconds. The Wood Wolverine the saw did not pinch at all cutting from the top down.
I also measured the covered stacks. There's a little over 3.5 cord between the two. I'll be CSS more soon so I wont have to worry about running out. I started this year with about 3.25 cord dried. We'll see if that makes it through. 1.5 cord of the covered stacks is all oak.
It all looks great Marvin ! We had two inches of snow on the ridge Sunday morning. There was just a trace in downtown Huntingdon.
Yes, I should have spoken up. I knew you had it there but I assumed you just brought what people had asked for.
