These Logs Cost Over $5000!
มุมมอง 1.4Kปีที่แล้ว
After doing some excavation on our property we ended up with a large stack of logs for firewood and other projects. Most of this firewood will get processed into firewood for our growing firewood business, but some of it is nice enough for lumber. With the seasonal timing, I'm focused on splitting soft woods that will dry out this season - especially maple and poplar.

Short on Time - Cut A Little, Split A Little

Nothing is Ever As Easy As It Should Be

Got the tractor in the woods today to skid out some standing dead firewood logs. These oak trees have been dead at least one season and there is a lot of good firewood here. The Kubota L3901 did a great job skidding the logs out of the woods where we can buck them up and process into firewood.
This is Holding Back My Firewood Business
มุมมอง 3.2Kปีที่แล้ว
I have been fortunate enough to double my firewood business each of the past few years, and I'm on pace to do that again this year, but there's one big thing holding me back from increasing my production (which has been my biggest bottleneck in growing my business). To increase firewood production, I feel the time has come to quick stacking firewood to season. The firewood stacks look good, but...

This has been years in the making and so many people have said we need a sawmill on the property.

In this video we'll get the sawmill assembled and use it for the first time.

Firewood Deliveries in the New Truck (Nissan Titan XD)
มุมมอง 1.7Kปีที่แล้ว
Our for the first firewood deliveries in the new truck. The 2018 Nissan Titan XD is a big step up from my Nissan Frontier. I'm able to haul more and make more deliveries in one trip than ever before. For 2023, I'm looking to double my firewood business and having a larger, more capable truck is an important piece to help reach that business goal.

Buyer's Remorse. Sold the F-250. What I Bought Instead.
มุมมอง 2.5Kปีที่แล้ว
After less than 2 months I got rid of the F-250 and bought a different truck that will be my work truck AND my daily driver. I've been looking for a heavy duty truck for a while and came across an older F-250 with low mileage and tasteful upgrades. I thought it would be perfect, but as it turned out, I hated driving it. The ride was rough and it was too noisy. After some research, I settled in ...

    I run a CS-590 and cut 4-5 cords of firewood a season. I noticed your Echo was running a little rich and losing RPM as a result. Either your filter is dirty or you will want to lean out the high speed needle just a bit.

Dunno why he didn't quit after the first time. Each time he got robbed, he would get robbed again by the guy he was selling flowers for. The guy demanded he pay for the money that got stolen. I bet the guy was responsible, in some way that I don't yet understand, for my brother getting robbed.

    A lot people say wood doesn't season in log form but what I found is if your logs are in a sunny spot and are around 12-16 inches diameter out there for a year or 2, its not as wet as people think. I split them recently in June through July and all are registering in the teens now. Only the oak is not ready, on average around 25-28%.

    I had a few poplar trees blow down last fall and I decided to utilize it as fire wood mixed in with my usual maple. I guess I'll see how it turns out. I do keep my wood much larger than what I see on your video. That looks quite small even for stove wood, no wonder it seems to burn fast. I guess that's what your customers are looking for.

    OK ITS FIREWOOD SEASON. FALL 2024 (SEPTEMBER) HERES THE DEAL. DO NOT RUSH THE PROCESS. ANYONE TELLING YOU TO DRY IN 4 MONTHS HAS NO IDEA WHATS GOING ON. IF YOUR WOOD IS FOR AMBIENCE, LISTEN TO THIS DUDE. IF ITS FOR HEAT, LET THE WOOD DRY FOR 2 YEAS FROM THE TIME ITS CUT DOWN. HIS WAY IS LIKE SQUEEZING A CHICKEN TO GET THE EGG FASTER. HIT TWO DRY PIECES TOGETHER, THEY MUST SOUND LIKE BOWLING PINS HITTING TOGETHER. THEN ITS TIME 2 BURN.

    I just bought the same splitter from HD. Brought it home and went thru the manual to ensure I started it up correctly. After a few minutes of running I had hydraulic oil spewing out of the refill plug. I called champion customer service and they said the people that assembled it at HD must’ve put too much oil in it. There was maybe a cup and a half of oil that came out. Oil level on the eye glass was a little over half so I figured it made sense. After a few minutes I look at the level after it cooled down for about 15 minutes and it looked low. I added some oil and it ran fine. After splitting wood for about 45 minutes it makes a whistling noise when the blade returns. Only when it returns. Not sure what going on. I figure I will drain all the oil out and replace with fresh oil and filter to correct levels according to manual.

    Dude, you shouldn't be comparing saws if you don't know what you're doing. To be fair, you should have a brand new chain of the same type on each saw. The difference you're seeing in the amount and distance of chips being being thrown is due to differences between the chains (wear and sharpness & height of the rakers). I love my CS-590 and think it's a great deal for $400, but I can';t tell ya anything about the Husky, 'cause I've never had one (I almost did buy a Rancher..but opted for the Echo instead, mainly due to it being a much better value).
