The end result was posted in my bullchitten thread but I decided it belongs here as well. LOL Tomorrow we start on cutting a new loop of trail through the property. So we will get some more firewood from that task. 2 for 1
Found the forum a couple months ago and have really enjoyed reading , so finally decided to join the community. Finally, someone who understands me! Here’s what I have c/s/s so far this year! Measures out to a little over 70 face cord!
Just about finished cutting and hauling, then it’s back to splitting and stacking! Slowly but surely. Estimating these piles to be about another 50 face cord. We’ll see how close I am once it’s split and stacked.
Do you sell some on the side? How much do you burn in a season? Backwoods Savage will be very proud of you for being ahead on your wood for nice and dry burning...
I do sell some besides what I burn. I burn 10-12 face depending on the season and have for the last 11 years.
Now that what i call a hoard of firewood. VERY WELL DONE Haftacut Very impressive! Welcome to the FHC Great to have you join us! Lots of knowledge and humor here. I fall into both those categories! We love pics of stacks, saws, fires etc. and lots of them!
No goin back once you burn stuff several years old. My father in law turned me on to that. This year he was burning stuff he cut probably 6-8 years ago!
I’ll do my best not to disappoint! Looking forward to the knowledge available from guys who’ve been doing it a hell of a lot longer than I have been! Thanks for the welcome!
I’ve cut enough to stay a year or two ahead since I started burning, but the sickness really set in since the in-laws woods were logged on two separate occasions in the last 5 years or so. Loggers left all the tops, and father in law has no interest in cutting beyond what he needs for himself. Lots and lots of tops! Hate to see em go bad!
Making fiirewood produces lots of shorts and nuglies as i call them. A good portion of my wood is scrounged from "roadkill" left behind after trees are cut next to the road by state, town etc.
May have to steal that term! Nuglies....yeah, I like it! I can typically burn for most of the month of October with em. They really add up!
Haftacut Looks like you have this hoarding bug BAD. There is no cure for it and no one on this site is looking for the cure.Welcome to the site, you will like it here.
Watch out for that other bug you can catch, it is called CAD. Chainsaw acquisition disorder will leave you broke but with a shed full of saws
