Wow! That’s great news for you Joe, and the entire wood industry! Elaine from Canada here, you did well to keep it under wraps, and now you’re bubbling with enthusiasm. What have you started?? This has got to be the biggest news and opportunity for OWB yet. Very impressive, and what an exciting project to look forward to. Thanks also to the town council, tourism department and all resources they may provide. Hip hip hooray!
Congratulations! Looks like a great venue for the Expo. I don't know why I have an obsession with the firewood and logging RUclipsrs. I find it relaxing and satisfying being in a quick paced commercial real estate business in the Boston area. I just looked up the drive time for me and at 9 hours, I think I'll be there.
That would be awesome if you would come my friend. We drove to Boston a couple summers ago and it is an easy drive once you get close to PA. No traffic after that
Wow!!! Congratulations Joe. What a success on your 1st Expo to more to a bigger venue. Who knows, might be as big as the PBS!!! Hope it exceeds your expectations. Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks Preppy. The county has been very supportive, as is the City of Cortland was last year. Sounds to me to be a good reason for you to come to Ohio in May buddy!
@@ohiowoodburner Would love to be able to come and visit. Would still be teaching school and the pool business would be getting cranked up. Also, not a lot of wood to process in West Texas!! LOL Living vicariously through your videos. Stay warm!
Great Joe,just great. I'm looking foward to seeing all the videos. Love watching your enthusiasm. The very best of luck to you and all of your viewers and subscribers. Cheers from HB NZ
I'm not even in the firewood business and this is exciting. What you do and what your doing is interesting to watch since following you early on, on RUclips. No wonder people do not watch or follow regular TV, social media such as this has transformed daily life to enrich lives from all over, and people can participate that is using social media wisely and to a great advantage.
The new location is a win-win fit EVERYONE involved! More vendors, more equipment per vendor can bo shown, more parking, and is yet another event to help keep the fairgrounds that much more profitable. Not to mention all the hotels in the area get a boost. Congratulations, Joe, on a job well done.
@@ohiowoodburner We don't and I would be honoured to attend to support you but I just don't know yet if I can leave Carol - we are still managing through our loss. But hey, If I can, I promise I will be there my friend. :)
Awesome work Joe, looks like your little idea last year has grown into a big show. I will be attending this year. It just proves how great the woodhound community is such a tight knit family. See you in the spring.
Congratulations joe my grandmother came from ohio to Illinois in a covered wagon back in the day you going to be busy enjoy it and the other wood hounds stay safe and hydrated and stay warm my friend
Is this Peter and Cindy from AK? Regardless you will be issued a pair of gloves and a bottle of back pills upon arrival!!! LOLOLOL.. Just kidding. I hope you can come it would be great to see you!
Joe you have it going on . I hope it all goes well for you . What most people don’t understand is that it takes a lot of time and effort to do something like this .
Extremely interesting as well as impressive weather you realize or if you don't you Joe have managed slowly to play a major role in the evolving of the firewood industry
I am excited for you and nervous for you as well. I think it's an incredible opportunity you have made. I see a few stressful days ahead, but you got this!!
This is awesome. Can't wait to attend again. One vendor I would like to see is split-fire. They have a new affordable vertical splitter I would like to see in action.
Hey, Joe how long it would be before you'd had to find some other place to have your international farwood eXPO, it happened a lot faster than I thought. I hope this is just to start of something wonderful. II will be praying that everything goes well for you. That God me really bless everyone. You have a great 1. Bye.
Wow this is going to be an even more big deal. The one thing I thought might be an issue would be in getting enough logs in there but it sounds like it is already taken care of. All the best on this.
This is amazing. Joe, how do you find the time and band width to make this happen and still grow your business. I hope your compensation is worth the effort and results.
Joe, Congratulations on the Fairground usage you have found and can use. Unfortunately I will not be able to make it as my Water Pump Failed and I had to have it Replaced. I used to Sub. As a Senior Head Custodian but due to Budget issues there is No Subbing yet. Anyways it looks like it's going to be a great time for you Buddy, and again Congratulations and my Thoughtful Wishes and I will be Watching for it. Ron from the Woodyard in Upstate NY.
Wow expo ! here in the US ?! in Ohio ! wahooo .. I’m goona try n make it , I’m just a arborist. BUT , I make fire mostly as a hobby and if people want some firewood ? I’m ok to make a trade with them.
That would be nice. I know of a place in Middlefield I can refer you to. But the best doughnuts in our are are at the Sparkle Market in Cortland. Their Eclairs are awesome!
@@ohiowoodburnerl live in Masury Ohio so I will be going. Hopefully I see Do Cut there. I never thought you were local to me. Dirty Earl's Cleanup, Trumbull County, Ohio 🇺🇸
Heck, the 7 hour drive will be worth it..Just to see one of these fancy new age flushing toilets that I keep hearing so much about!!😮 You better contract that Bob fellow for the show layout!👍 Congrats, Joe...

Thanks Wade!!
Excellent use of your organizational skills, Joe. When do we hear about your baseball skills?
What I remember about my baseball career was all those home runs. Problem was, I was a pitcher!
Awesome! 🎉 will there be golf carts allowed? ... we have handicap tags and insurance.
I am not sure but I would image it would be ok. I will check but give me time Tim
Thank you😊
Wow this is going to be an even more big deal. The one thing I thought might be an issue would be in getting enough logs in there but it sounds like it is already taken care of.
All the best on this.
Well, until they are delivered it will be a problem LOL
Hopefully it won’t interfere with the Polar Bear Fest or the ice sculpture contest at the fairgrounds.
This is VERY exciting news! I think it would behoove me to make sure I'm there 🤠👍
Yeah, I think you need to come Sam! Serious, do you have any contacts in your previous life to help advertise this? Get them to put it on the news?
That’s awesome. For those that can’t make hopefully you will video it.
I will do my best but the other channels will have a lot of vids...just like last year's event
This sounds great Joe! Looking forward to it!
Did I tell you I have promoted you to Director of Wrenches?
@ohiowoodburner I'll bring them.
Lookin forward to this event (& helping out too)
I have already given you the title of Woodbank Director!
I said when in the blood your hooked thanks 👍 again my friend

Awsome joe did my books sold over 12000 bundles this year plus pizza wood and smoker wood
That is a lot!!! way to go!

Hope to see you there Robbie
That is some big news
It will be even bigger and better news if you could attend Craig!
This is amazing.
Joe, how do you find the time and band width to make this happen and still grow your business.
I hope your compensation is worth the effort and results.
There is work to be done but it is more about coordination. For the show I mostly stand and point... Hey!, that's what I always do!! LOLOL
So cool Joe! I am hoping to make it this year. Alan from Sunapee, N.H.
I'd love to see you there, Alan!
That'll be great. The most important question: will there be a raffle for a load of logs?!?
I'm pretty sure there will be. Stay tuned
Wow... Not bad for something that started out as a couple of RUclipsrs getting together to compare chainsaws.
haha.. Funny how things work out sometimes!
Joe, Congratulations on the Fairground usage you have found and can use.
Unfortunately I will not be able to make it as my Water Pump Failed and I had to have it Replaced.
I used to Sub. As a Senior Head Custodian but due to Budget issues there is No Subbing yet.
Anyways it looks like it's going to be a great time for you Buddy, and again Congratulations and my Thoughtful Wishes and I will be Watching for it. Ron from the Woodyard in Upstate NY.

Nice video. Bud
THanks Ralph
We are looking forward to being there! Will have a bunch of Wolfe Ridge and Fuelwood machines there for sure! 🦾
Awesome Bob!!! I wouldn't be where I am now without you!
Is log hauler Jesse gonna show? Or is he sitting this one out?
I haven't spoken to him about it but I would imagine he will be there
This is a free event right?
Undetermined yet. I have expenses I need to cover but any fee would be cheap.
@@ohiowoodburner thanks
Will there be Amish donuts?
That would be nice. I know of a place in Middlefield I can refer you to. But the best doughnuts in our are are at the Sparkle Market in Cortland. Their Eclairs are awesome!

I'm disappointed that Back 40 mini firewood wasn't at the top of the list.
We have drawn the line at Hobbiests!

Heck, the 7 hour drive will be worth it..Just to see one of these fancy new age flushing toilets that I keep hearing so much about!!😮
You better contract that Bob fellow for the show layout!👍
Congrats, Joe...
After paying for portojohns last year...flush toilets are worth the price of admission
My Godfather’s church is right next to the fairgrounds lol
Great to know. Let him know so he can come with you!!!
@ I’ll try! Depends if he’s busy with church or family stuff that weekend. I’ll try and bring my cousin with me tho!
