    Glad to see the shirts fit and you are enjoying them! Y’all have been supporting me since the beginning! Your bundle sales are off the hook! I sold 7 kindling bundles yesterday?? Be careful Karen, letting Phil wear that shirt too much and he will never come inside😂 Take care you two. Thanks for the shout👊🏻

      We love the shirts! So thoughtful of you Todd. You were one of the first channels we watched and one of the very first we met! We consider you friends 😊 our other stands aren’t selling as fast as this one. A couple we haven’t had to go to for a week or more. Location, location, location lol. Well Todd, Phil wore the shirt and as we speak he is on his buddy’s boat on the ocean to go tuna fishing. It’s an overnighter, so I guess the shirt worked! 😂👍 Thanks again and take care!

    Nice of Phil to let you deal with the jammed gun!
    Good philosophy- “ If you’re gonna run junk, buy a spare”. Reminds me of the new buffet restaurant that opened, “ the food is terrible, inedible, but at least it’s all you can eat”!- so we got that going for us😁Hope you’ll be firing-up the grill tonight, enjoying some of that fresh caught Tuna the guys are catching.

    Awesome video. Ye are selling lots firewood bundles at that stand. Phil your pockets aren't empty now unless Karen took the money ha,ha. Phil you certainly no how to sharpen a saw. Cuts like going threw butter. Great work Karen making your bundles to get ready to sell. Nice of the guy to bring you that rig to put your plastic wrap into to make it easier to unroll and the doughnuts. Mountain dew goes great with those Phil. Karen hope you stays hydrated ha,ha. Just got to torment you. Have a great day.

      Thanks Ewen! That stand is doing really well! Lol, all the money goes to Karen the accountant. She keeps our world spinning so I’m happy to hand it over! Always busy! Karen is bundling and I’m either hauling, cutting or splitting wood. I’ve perfected sharpening that chain to cut…done it enough after hitting all the hardware I find in the tree service wood! The donuts and the gift from Dave were a bonus today! Phil hydrates with Mtn Dew. Water for me! But I’m getting him to come over to the other side because it’s been so hot! 🥵

  • @ralphritenour6963
    @ralphritenour6963 14 дней назад

    You probably thought of this,
    Maybe put a handful of kindling in each bag.
    It will allow you to get rid of some kindling and make more bags with your wood supply.

    • @AllenFamilyFirewood
      @AllenFamilyFirewood  14 дней назад

      That’s a good idea Ralph. I hate to take away from the bigger pieces of firewood in our bundles though. Maybe we can do a special…free bundle of kindling for every 3 firewood bundles purchased. It’s at the point that we’re really not seeing any revenue from the kindling, but maybe it could boost the bundle sales. Worth a try!

  • @neilhillman6130
    @neilhillman6130 14 дней назад

    I don't know if it has been said but there is a right direction to load hog rings. Put the strip of rings on the gun and look at how they sit on the slide bar the should look smooth on the bend. If you load them in the other direction they will look stuck together and that will cause the jamming. I used hog rings guns for 28 years building seat for mini vans. It has to do with how they are glued one way makes the turn smooth and the other binds. I hope it solves your problem.

    • @AllenFamilyFirewood
      @AllenFamilyFirewood  14 дней назад

      Thanks Neil! We do have the hog rings loaded right, but the first gun jammed shortly after we got it and we took it apart to get the jam out and we think once it was put back together things may not have been aligned properly, which caused it to jam here and there. We've been using the new gun and it's working much better! Thanks for the tip!

      We'd love to have a couple more stands as active as that one Dono! We are surrounded by lakes and in a busy tourist area. A lot of campers here during the summers and they all have campfires! We don't leave our stands out in the winter, with storms and snowplows, it would be hard to maintain them and not sure how much business they would do. We'll leave them out as long as we can into the fall. We might be able to try one in front of the shop this winter with hardwood just to see how it does. It's close enough we can keep it cleared out from snow. Sure would love to have Andy here making bundles! Can't seem to get him! Take care!

      This is a business and we’ve been working 12-14 hr days 7 days a week for a few weeks now. As a business, when you get busy, sometimes you need to make choices about what is most profitable. Unfortunately, RUclips is the least profitable and actually costs money and time to produce videos. This is our busy season, we have to make our money now to last throughout the winter. Once we’re able, we’ll definitely be putting more videos out. Would love to do more videos, but our situation just doesn’t allow for it right now. We really appreciate you watching, thank you!
