Fire crackling in the stove, hot cup of coffee, snow falling outside starts with processing firewood in the summer. Looks like a nice setup.
Thanks. Your description of winter sounds great and definitely worth working for. Thanks for watching and commenting.
dont forget wood need to dry for 2 years ideally before burning it ;)
That is true for a lot of hardwoods like maple and oak, unfortunately we don't have that kind of wood in the west. Mostly what I am processing is Tamarack which takes 3 to 6 months to dry. Not as hot burning as the good hardwoods but it is the best we have out here. Thanks for watching!
Nice way of handling your firewood. 10 cords is a lot of wood. I'm with you on working out in the cold and snow. We usually have wind to go with the cold. Makes it really uncomfortable. I like to work in the morning when it's still cool during the summer.
Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching. Agree with the summer hours. Try and get a little done in the morning and then some more in the evening.
I'm with you...I'd much rather sweat than shiver !
👍Thanks for watching.
Great video . I cut wood for myself also . At 65 I finally got a compact tractor to lift wood , make openings in the woods to arrange easier cutting of the wood and hauling the firewood out of the woods on a ATV trailer instead of using the ATV machine itself which is hard on it . I like cutting trees and splitting in the fall and winter. I do cut in the summer like today it’s 90 degrees out there cutting 260 lb rounds that I got off Facebook. These heavy rounds I’m going to have to start passing up cuz to hard to be splitting for me .
260 lbs!? Yeah, I would have a hard time with that too! Thanks for watching!
Seems like you could work easier if you rounded them out in where you knocked the tree then load the rounds up into a trailer and back the trailer up next to the splitter, hope this helps.
That is kind of what I am trying to avoid. By cutting the logs to 8 foot lengths I can move them to the table with the grapple on the tractor, cut them, split and stack them. This way I lessen the chances of hitting the ground with the chainsaw and I avoid loading the rounds into the trailer and then unloading them again. Thanks for the suggestion though and thanks for watching.
Looks like you have a good method!
Thanks!
