    Thanks brother. I just keep chipping away at it as the weather permits. It was sunny all day and reached 52°. A no coat day here. Lol

    For sure.
    Saw first choice, or maybe driving around on the Tractor.
    Then I would say splitting.
    After that the one I hate and really am not good at ; the dreaded stacking.

    Yes! Stacking sucks. I hope someone buys all of it before I feel the need to do that.

    I'm getting some pallets from my nephew. Fixing to start stacking in cords between T-posts on the pallets.

    Idea...:sherlock::sherlock:...drive a T post where the fork openings are on pallets, stand pallet upright on each end of stacks, will make it more stable

    This gives me hope! I can't stand the noise my splitter makes. Some day I would love to have a battery operated splitter. The battery may take up most of the back of my pickup but it would be worth it. That's a lot of splitting with an electric splitter- well done!

    Thank you. I have to power it with a little generator when out there, but its way quieter than any splitter I've been around. They make them much larger than 5 ton in these electric units.
