Still Trying To Decide If This Will Work?

I'm always trying new ways to improve the firewood storage process. I've recently started piling all my firewood instead of stacking trying to save time. I'm still not sure this will improve things.

Merry Christmas Ben, I really enjoy your videos.
Thanks so much hope you had a great Christmas. Take care God bless.
I had used filtered used motor oil and bar and chain oil fifty /fiffy mix works great. I always buy the winter grade oil for mixing its a bit heavier
Sounds like a good idea. Mixing the used stuff with the heavy bar oil should work good. I actually used real bar oil yesterday I’m out of the used motor oil. I guess it’s time to change my oil in the vehicles. Thanks for stopping by.
I used to love cutting wood for our stove an swinging an axe an maul. I wore out 2 homelite saws and a McCullough. My family were hard workers.
Sounds like good times and lots of firewood was made. I remember cutting a lot as a kid seemed like everyone had a wood stove back then.
051captinron Washington state waving ❤ merry Christmas 🎅🎄🤶
Thanks Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Looks like a great way to spend the day.
Yes it was got a lot done. Need several more days like this to top off the inventory for next winter.
Merry Christmas, Ben
Thanks Happy New Year.
I’m seeing this the day after Christmas. I hope you enjoy the whole wonderful season!
Thanks Frank hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Take care Ben.
Merry Christmas Ben!
Thanks Mike. Take care and be safe, Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas 🎄.
Merry Christmas! Hope you have a wonderful one.
Merry Christmas Ben
Same to you!
A merry Christmas to your family from mine
Thanks Merry Christmas.
You’ve got it down Ben! That’s what I was doing yesterday. Just for the house.
Yeah it was a great day for making firewood. Merry Christmas.
@@OGAOutdoors⛄️🎅🎄
Merry Christmas Ben!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Y'all
Like! Merry Christmas Ben!
And a very Merry Christmas to you too Ben
Hey Ben go to Harbour Freight and buy 2 smile for the camera signs and mount then on each end of your stand. Then add 3 fake cameras that are motion activated, 1 aimed at your money box and 1 on each corner of your stand. Since I have done this my theft has been reduced to zero. Cheers and Merry Christmas. Woody !!!
Yeah that will slow them down. I added a couple signs when I was having the problem. Seems like it fixed the problem and I have now removed the signs and everything is good for now. Take care Merry Christmas.
I use my IBC totes for all my off cuts I'll put like my oak, mulberry,locust and so in one and my faster drying wood I'll put in a different one
Yeah I have some hickory and cherry shorts in a couple totes. I just kinda end up using them where they are needed most. Thanks for watching and stopping by.
Happy to see another video. I hope you are enjoying the holidays. Blessings to you for the new year.
Thanks for watching and stopping by. Hope you have a Merry Christmas and a great new year. Take care.
Hi Ben Your still at it !!! Good Show ! Wow on the Cold Start of your tractor ! That's hard on the engine ! Hopefully it came with a Block Heater !! And you just forgot to plug it in !!!!😊 Merry Christmas
Yes sir I’m still here just a little slow with the videos. I’m not sure what it has but when it’s cold it counts down several seconds before it wants you to start it. It had warmed up quite a bit. A new battery would help but I’m getting all I can out of the original almost 7 years old. I have kept a battery tender on it a lot the last few years seems to really help. Thanks for watching.
Merry Christmas!
@OGAOutdoors When it's doing the count down it's probably heating the glow pugs for heating the fuel injectors ! A block heater is usually in the engine block and actually goes into the coolant of the engine ! It has a electrical cord on it that you plug into your electrical of your property ! It will warm up a cold engine in 2 to 4 hours ! It will be toasty warm like a July summer day !!😁
@ Yeah that’s is what I figured. 😀
Nice vid Ben. It's a full time part time job 😆
You know it. I think I watched one of your shorts yesterday with a little buck. I’ve got a camera on the way hoping it will be here by Christmas. Plan to get some videos of my wife’s pets.
@@OGAOutdoors Aww nice! Can’t wait to see them. Thanks for watching 🦌
pretty easy to cut back, just don't cut! haha
I’m still trying to cut hoping to have enough for next winter. I’m sure I will have inventory left from this winter with the limited deliveries. Thanks for stopping by.
Good to see you in the woodyard Ben! Hope y’all are well and that yall have a Merry Christmas!
Yes sir the wood yard has been a pretty busy place. Thanks for stopping by and Merry Christmas. God Bless.
Great job Ben. Merry Cgristmas Ben and Teresa! Love you guys God's blessings💕
Thanks so much Christie hope you have a wonderful Christmas. God Bless.
Just so you know, perfect stick has a new disc that is a soft flexible material now
Thanks I may need to check into that since mine is broken. Thanks for watching and stopping by.
@ I’m sure you could do something ghetto like glue a trimmed lid to it but I can’t stand working with janky tools
Merry Christmas Ben !
Thanks Gord! Merry Christmas to you too!
I hope the self checkout has been working great for you!
It has I’m selling a few totes. It should pick back up when the weather turns cold again.
Tis the season. You gonna get any snow this year?
Sure I expect 2’ by the end of next week lol. We’ll probably get your leftovers. If we get the snow forecast sells will go crazy for sure. Take care be safe.
Good Evening Sir, that was a close drop near your feet 🥴🥴 Great Chainsaw action Sir 😉👍Nice John Deere Tractor Action 👍😉👌Great Moisture Control 🧐👌👍Keep Warm Sir Cheers 👍👍👌👌🍻🍻
Thanks Dave. I guess that’s why we have two feet in case I can’t get out of the way. Take care and be safe.
Happy football watching!👍👍
Watching football as we speak. Not very good but watching anyway.
My favorite two saw combo on a budget is the Echo CS-590 with a 4920/501P. A bigger budget, Husqvarna 562xp and 550xp. Either setup will cut everything an entry-level firewood cutter needs to cut.
I don’t have any experience with the Husky’s. I do love the Echos though. My current one two punch is my Shindaiwa 591 and my Echo 590 both the same saw.
I've slowed down firewood for personal reasons. I'll get back to it as it is the best therapy I know, but only if it is on my terms and not outright production. Gotta be able to do a personal best once in a while to motivate me. For now, getting my mojo back. Hopefully God sends some form of guidance. Hopefully my ears are open when said guidance comes.
Like I told you trust his guidance. It will all work out in his time.
You are one busy man Ben! It's good for the soul to be outside in the cold air! It's in the 20's here today in Connecticut and going to start raining. No snow down here on the coast! Yipee! 🙂☃️🎅🎁🎄
@@candiceantrop4073 Thanks Candice, you know I try my best to stay busy. That's part of the reason why I do as many videos just don't have the time with all the working. Take care and I hope you have a very Merry Christmas.
Great video!! Hope all your customers show up!!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks David. They were just a little later in the day. I’m really starting to like pickups. Take care God Bless.
Hey Ben, good to see you're still at it. It keeps you busy, thats for sure.
Yes sir I’m still at it. Main thing now is finding the time to make inventory for next winter. Thanks again for the advice on the cameras. Take care God Bless.
Good video, Ben. For me, it's getting board of delivering, and I don't want them showing up to the house to get it so i have to juggle delivering and production
Yes I have turned down several deliveries lately just sticking to the easy ones. My wife doesn’t like the customers showing up either that’s the main reason for the totes at the road. I have a few that are help yourself but they are repeats that I know pretty well. Take care enjoy your Sunday.
That's great. Luckily you don't need to go far!
Thanks so much for watching and stopping by.
Great video Ben. What is the measurement tool at 4:30?
I think it’s called the perfect stick. I’d have to go back and watch a video to be sure. It’s pretty neat works pretty good on straight stuff. Thanks for stopping by.
That is good sounding wood Ben. Stay warm 18 degrees is too cold!
Yeah I was pleased with the wood from the pile seemed to season well. I’ll take the 22 over the 18 every day lol. Take care enjoy your Sunday.
You are doing it right if you can't keep the roadside stand full. It sounds like you all are having a frosty good time in North Alabama. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers
We were having the frosty weather now we are wet. Supposed to get cold later in the week. Yeah the roadside stand gets hit during the week and fill it up on Saturday. Take care sir.
a nice vidoe kept them coming
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it. Take care enjoy your Sunday.

Good afternoon!
Good afternoon yourself. Hope all is well.
Good to see you Ben. Sounds like the demand around you is very good. I don’t sell any wood anymore. Just make for our own use. Thanks for sharing your experience.
@ Thanks Frank good to hear from you sir. Yes I’ve been really hard at it on my days off. I’ve really cut back on deliveries but business is still pretty good. I just need to make more as fast as I can. Enjoy your day sir God bless.
Did you say it shut off cause it got hot just asking decent machine though
I’d have to go back and watch the video but if it was the electric splitter it was an issue with the electricity. Long story short it needs to be on a shorter cord closer to the breaker box. Thanks for stopping by.
We be a tree company and supply are own wood mixed and hard woods here people try to avoid pine for fireplaces but sell a lot of other woods we have pine for wood carving sell to them
We turned a tree company logs into a million dollar business not bad and have a biiig splitter that splits anything two four six feet around couple hundred ton rams can split a car Into so no waste has place for chips and stump grindings just pay the man to split wood open year round operation but you do what you do keep active and healthy safe have a good day
Sounds like you got it going on. I’m just a little part time deal. Keeps me busy.
You're not splitting it, you're making kindling. The majority of what I burn is spruce & pine, a bit of birch if I can find it. Don't have any hardwoods where I live.
Yeah I go through a lot of kindling with all these little fires I have. I wish I had some pine right now it’s all in the shed and it’s raining. I’ve got hardwood on the porch so I’m nursing it along. Take care.
Where do you get your firewood logs to make into firewood
Most everything currently comes from tree services.
This was a great video on electric wood splitting.. Lots of explanation and appreciated the different types of wood you were doing.
Thanks for watching, glad it was helpful.
Great video Thanks.
Hi Ben, great video. I am just starting out on my firewood journey, so I don't have any thoughts on the best process - I am sure someone in the comments will have some solutions, but I like your set-up, and I'm sure you will find a system that will work for you. Great video. Thanks and greetings from New Zealand.
Thanks so much for watching and stopping by. Hope the firewood journey treats you well. You'll find as you go you are always adjusting the process to what best suites your needs. Thanks again hope to see you again, Take care.
