    Change the top plate angle to 35degrees and drop the rakers to 30thousandths if you want to cut fast, but only do it for saws that are 60cc plus.

    Good to see you again John. Last year I had an elm tree cut down that died and it was absolutely the worst wood I've ever split with a hydraulic splitter. I didn't want the fuel to go to waste, but if I can across it again I would leave it for sure. I hope it puts out some decent BTUs to make the effort worth it.

      That's what I remember of Elm too. I hope I identified the wood wrong.

      Elm is like Gold, it's very rare to see a mature one, 🌲🇮🇪

    The piece with the green looks like sumac, you're correct in that it burns rather poorly.
    The ash in my region does grow back until they're a few inches around, then the ash borer gets them. It's become a cycle now, full size ash are gone until something is done to eradicate the borer for good, but at this point l can't see that happening.

      Thanks for sharing. The Sumac was a VERY wet piece of wood. We're still in the initial decline stage though nearing the end. Ash logs are abundant but it's sad to lose another tree to a pest.

    I love your scrounging videos-I always glean something good. On a business related question, do you slow down considerably in the winter or do you stockpile winter appropriate jobs for that time? I am an arborist in KY but I specialize in tree planting so my season runs from october thru may/june. I always like to hear how other folks with seasonal work flows handle the up and down, feast and famine nature of it. Thanks for your videos and cheers from KY.

      Robert, I wish I could tell you I have it figured out but I don't. I try not to give business advice on the channel and focus on how to or how I do videos. I can tell you in my area the weather clears late March to early April and can go as late as Christmas, or later, depending on what the winter is like.

    Have you ever tried a digital kitchen scale to weigh a sample fresh split piece of wood.? I also have a digital moisture meter, and it’s reading correspond to the weight loss. I use grams to measure water loss, figuring when my sample has lost 30% by weight its dry

    • @CTSCAPER

      I never thought of that. While I am detail oriented in some things, with firewood I usually go with my gut and use a more drying is better method. Unfortunately, I don't have enough wood at the current time. The digital moisture meters look neat and are cheap enough I should give one a try though.
