    Right where I want to be.
    from my firewood guy, and he's about to start cutting for this year.
    I told him to start with a cord or so, and asked about the price for splits (some may remember that he's been bringing me rounds).
    For the paltry sum of $5/"face", he'll split. I said in a very non-nonchalant way (in a text)that that would be fine.
    Jeez, it takes me an hour, with a hydraulic splitter, to do that. He uses a maul. He's a good sized youngun, at about 6'6", so maybe it's a leverage thing.:DOr would that be momentum?
    Anyway, this will save me a bunch of time.
    Should start around the end of the month.:thumbs:

    This kid works his patookus off...did I spell that right?
    I remember working hard like that when I was a youngun. Now, I only hardly work.:D
    Going rate around here is upwards of $65, and some want you to pick it up at that price.:loco: :crazy:
    I think I found a deal. :whistle: Same thought I had last year when I met him. Good kid.
