    Love it. You have made it easy for yourself in many ways. You need rotational forklift toes now to load the bag for you. Save you all that time to fill them manually. Watching from Northern Ireland. 👍

      I really appreciate the compliments. Usually around the new year, business picks up, as all of the smaller wood yards run out firewood. Here's to a busy new year! Thanks so much as always for watching!

    Just came across your channel. I’m definitely subscribing. If I can ever afford some land and equipment I’d love to start my own side job doing this. My grandfather owned a sawmill and a small logging company. My mom always tells me Im just like her father. By the way I noticed your address in the description said Youngsville. Do you live in Youngsville? I live in Zebulon. Not too far from Youngsville!

      Appreciate your kind words! A face cord is a third off a full cord, or one "face" of a stack of 3 rows that are 4 foot tall by 8 foot wide of 16" splits (full cord). Happy New Year and thanks so much for watching!

    So you can fit face cords in these bags . Nice knuckle boom truck . How does the firewood dry in that barn . I am in ohio have my firewood stacks outside. I ve been selling good . Thanks Daniel

    • @FoxfireProjects
      @FoxfireProjects  Год назад

      Yes sir, 4'x8' stack of 16" pieces fits loosely in the bags. Has made delivering so much easier for us. The wood drys extremely well in the barns. In the summer, the heat on the tin roof in combination with a constant breeze blowing through the center, really speeds up the process. Glad to hear business is good. I'm sure it's cold up your way this morning. Appreciate you watching!

    Do you stack the wood to dry and season this way

    • @FoxfireProjects
      @FoxfireProjects  Год назад

      We season several ways, all with great results. A lot of wood is seasoned right in the bags, they are made with a breathable mesh fabric that allows air flow, works really great outside in our summer heat. We also season under cover in barns. It really makes a beautiful wood, with no color fading from sun or rain. Thanks so much for watching!

    Hi do you not always get your bag back and how much does a bag cost?

    • @FoxfireProjects
      @FoxfireProjects  2 года назад +3

      We get the bags back to refill from most of our restaurants, and about 40-50% of residential sales, mostly repeat customers. We don't use a deposit system, and factor the bag into the cost of the wood. Have seen folks use them for yard debris, storage, and even a kid's fort. Thanks so much for watching!

  • @danahasson2892
    @danahasson2892 Год назад

    That's a great truck set up did you find that used or did you have it built? 2nd question do you charge your customers a deposit on the firewood bag or do you just include it in the price of the face cord ?

    • @FoxfireProjects
      @FoxfireProjects  Год назад +1

      Appreciate the kind words. We picked it up used. Was an oil field truck of some sort in its prior life. No deposit on the bags, we factor in to the cost of the wood. We have a lot of repeat customers, that are nice enough to save them for us, so we do get quite a few back to reuse. Thanks for watching!

    Does that crane lift those bags at 30ft? Do you know roughly what they weigh? Trying to see if it will do hickory. Hickory is super heavy

    Also how well does the wood dry being piled up like that and being indoors? I pile mine up on pallets outside and I like to have an indoor storage option down the road.

    • @FoxfireProjects
      @FoxfireProjects  2 года назад +2

      It dries down really well actually. 18% moisture content in less than a year. Southern climate with lots of heat in the summer, and there’s always a breeze flowing through. Wood seasoned under cover just looks so much better from a sellable standpoint. Appreciate you watching!

      @@FoxfireProjects I agree up here in New York it’s been pretty wet that’s why I’ve been thinking of building a simple lean too style structure with pallet walls to allow air flow but keep the majority of the rain and snow off of it. That will be a project when I acquire my own larger property to build on and store a lot of wood.

      Most homeowner deliveries are cash or check when we get to them, several long standing customers mail in payment if they aren’t home when we deliver. All of our restaurants are on net 30 billing. We’ve got really great customers. It works out well. Appreciate you watching!
