So I have very little grease, I think its mostly paper and the wax paper cup. My question is, what if you just use a small amount of wax to glue the cedar chips in? Would it work with half as much wax in each cup?

While the moisture content is high, I suspect it will dry quicker than fresh cut green logs. It’s not “sap” wet but only “water” wet if that makes sense. At least that’s been my experience.

      Hi Roger. It is a large family farming and logging business so they log their own wood. They have a really old large processor and lots of low cost farm labor. They also have a large wholesale bundle business (several thousand bundles a year) and I think that’s where they make their money

    First off dick I’d like to congratulate you on hitting your milestone of 10,000 subscribers, good for you my friend and secondly that’s an awesome deal for $170 of oak honestly here in southern Ontario not far from Niagara Falls you could probably get $130 for a face cord for Oak so I think you got a hell of a deal. Cheers, Woody !!!

      Thanks Woody. Selling in face cord or smaller quantities I should do well!
