Hi Joe - it's Big Rodders in Ireland. Another interesting video on the routine trials and tribulations of a solitary firewood producer. I was I intrigued to see that the diesel engine runs at higher revs than a gas one. Although perhaps 4000 miles away, I will be with you in spirit on Sat as you reach yet another milestone in your new career as the premier log producer in the great state of Ohio.
Thanks Big Rodders. Ohio today... Tomorrow the WORLD!!!
I use the totes at the end of each of the rows to makes it easier to stack, no more making end stops to stack against !
Nice idea Pete!
I've done the same with a complete ibc at the end of a row, fillled with water for fire fighting duties as it gets really dry and hot in these parts, Col from down under.
Wow! The amount of firewood you processed BY YOURSELF!
Nice setup!
Take an IBC tote and 4 pieces of 1/4 plywood on all four sides, now you have an easy way to store and transport the sawdust and scraps to burn in your shop. Bag up the sawdust and bundle up the scraps for easier handling or box up the scraps.
Food for thought
Great video! Those IBC totes have revolutionized many endeavors such as moving firewood.
Another thing you can do with the off cuts and the ugly wood is throw them through the chipper. That will help a bit. Great idea on using the IBC tote.
I agree but as long as Im heating the house with wood I will be putting it into that pile!
Nice set up Joe, you’re smashing it! Elaine from Canada here watching you develop your systems and ideas at work. Looks like you’re still having fun with the labor saving equipment and tools. Hope y’all enjoy the “meet and greet”, Best wishes!
Thanks Elaine!!
Could always get more ibc totes and put your burner wood in them and stack them by burner and use plastic liner as a cover to keep them dry.
Like the 405!! You are always trying to make the woodyard more efficient for you. Have a Safe Day
You got that right Davey!
Joe, being part of this channel has been a blast.. I have learned something had a few laughs.. Wish I could make it to the meet and greet but not this time, someday our paths will cross in person.. in the mean time keep going..
Will do Danny. glad to call you friend
Hi Joe! Thanks for another video in the day of the life of a firewood seller. I’m glad you’re showing us how you’re fine tuning your new yard. I’m slowly starting to utilize some ibc totes as well. I’m going to be moving my ugly pieces of seasoned ash and maple. I didn’t sort out the pieces I didn’t want to bundle in case I sold the whole rack. I stack on pallets by the face cord in racks I made. So now I’m left with about a totes worth of fire wood. I’ll get it out of there and refill with new stuff. Congrats on 20k! I’m looking forward to the live stream. I’ve got to work this weekend so I’m hoping to be able to catch some of it. But I wish I could’ve attended! Thanks again Joe! Have a great day 👍🏻!
thanks Chris. Not sure if I will do a live stream during the meet n greet. Depends on the wifi hook up!
@@ohiowoodburner I gotcha Joe. Well then have an extra piece of barbecue for me since I can’t make it. Since it would’ve been my piece, those calories don’t count right?? 👍🏻
Morning joe i see you handle that tractor better now i find if you spend time on the tractor you will get the hang of it practice makes perfect it seems everthing is going well for you joe thats what you need iam pleased for you business is good it makes life better you have loads of timber for firewood what more do you need takecare untill next time.
Thanks Toni! The tractor is a must-have for me!!
I need to get a tractor that will lift them full green wood. It what I would put all my own wood in. Then when need wood for the house just grab it put it in the garage. Nice work Joe.
Thanks Dan
Nice setup! The only thing missing is shade and a large fan which you could utilize the power generated from the processor 😎👍
I will get the roof eventually. I have to prioritize it RN. Thanks buddy
Thanks for the video Joe. I get a smile every Wednesday and Sunday when my notification comes through.
You are about the first sub I ever had Harold. You are always a main stay with me!!
Good videos Joe, keep them coming!!!.
Joe That Japa 405 impresses me as a nice all-around machine. I see other bigger more robust wood processors, but I don't see where they are any better than your Japa 405. I like the fact that is sophisticated and not overly cumbersome. It's the right size for a small yard setup. It looks well-built and engineered.
nice observation Ed. Totally agree with you
Another great video Joe! I use about 24 of the totes. I cut them all the way to the bottom and chain it to my forks then i can dump into my trailer
Using your head instead of your back is always smart! I'm planning on stopping by on Saturday for some friends, family, and firewood...and BARBECUE!
Using my head is my biggest challenge Steve!
@@ohiowoodburner 😎😇😜
Loved the use of the 405. Super fast. I think that’s the way to do the logs that are too big to feed thru the log on the 405.
Great video. Great use of the 405.
Never saw anyone else use it that way but I always wondered about it. Now I can see it in action.
It is a great machine for sure buddy!
All the best at the meet and greet this weekend. I hope it’s a good turnout and it will be good time with some delicious food cooked over some high quality firewood. Wish I could be there.
You will be there in spirit Johnny!!!
@@ohiowoodburner definitely.
Those totes have so many uses . Great to see you utilising them Joe . Oh , the processor vids never get old as I could watch that thing munch wood for days 👍
Use the totes for your bundle wood. Stack it in there and then carry the whole tote to the garage or under shade tree. You can have them split smaller if wanted for bundle wood.
good idea Dale. That is something I was looking at doing!
Hey Joe. I been using some totes and if u stack the wood in the Totes all the way to the Top it's right at a Face Cord. mabey a few sticks shy. But they sure do come in Handy fir different applications like you said. 👍
Thanks Red!!
@@ohiowoodburner Any time buddy
Nice technique with the picaroon. Kept the point of impact well away from your ankles.
It only has to happen once before you do it the right way everytime LOL
@@ohiowoodburner 🤣🤣🤣
Good luck with the meet and greet. I enjoy the channel
Thanks buddy!👍
Congratulations on your success! Thank you for sharing-I’ve learned a ton from you, your guests, and your podcast. I can’t make it to Mission BBQ this time, but I hope it’s a good day for all. All the best!
Thank you so much Josh!
Very nice machine !
thanks Del!
love this channel keep up the great work!!
Glad you enjoy it Icy!!! !
Have you ever used roundup for your grass control? I recommend it around log piles.
I have it buy haven't used it around my machine yet. Thanks Lamar!
Congratulations on discovering IBC Totes. A Fellow fire wood producer who has been to your farm relayed in one of his vlogs almost a year ago (the name I forgot but it was XXXXX Acres, Indiana) that the idea was do everything you could to minimize coming in contact with the wood the least amount of times. Today's shuffle invovled touching the wood the third time when ou threw your product in your small shed.. . .You still have two additional times yet coming when you must transfer the same wood to your grounded rows. If you get a chance drop in on a vlog of Mike with "Outdors with the Morgans" and you will see that withnin a very short time he's got in excess of 36 totes that are (1) totally above ground, (2) logs very well stacked in hs totes and (3) ready at a moments noticed to be placed anywhere, even ready for delivery. It was nice to hear on today's vlog that you may be on you way to simplify your efforts also.
Hell Joe, what do I know . . . I'm trying to put a CNC router business of sorts together. Please consider my comments to you in admiration. - - - Guy Rivard
Thanks Guy. I make it a point to not keep track of touches etc. Too depressing for me. LOL
You could also save those rounds and separate them by type and use them for your smoking chips.
These were maple. I am not making maple chips (yet.)
Great video! The Japa is an awesome machine. Nice to see you using the IBC totes. They are so versatile. We use them for firewood, rain water collection, and raised bed gardening. Just a suggestion: Maybe a 2 inch receiver carry-all hooked to your ballast box might help out when carrying your fuel cans, chainsaws, firewood, etc. There is a 99% chance that we'll see you on Saturday. And everyone have a great day.
Awesome Joe. Hope to see you guys!
Go get em Joe. Thanks
Thanks Jim
Getting nicely organized. You should use an IBC under the cleaner to catch that stuff. Easy to move them with your tractor. Smarter not harder! Also, the IBC's are 1/3 of a cord. When filled they can weigh up to 1600 lbs. You would never get your truck to take two of them.
The 330 gallon totes filled to the top are 1/3 cord. The 275's are (of course) less, although if you overstack them, you can get close to a 1/3 cord in.
I am supposed to get more IBCs so I will be adding that to put under the cleaner. Thanks J&F!!
Someone is making REALLY nice wood = 💵💵💵💵. Regarding delivery in baskets (IBC), could you change to a truck with a Hiab (crane) so that you could deliver in "sacks"? Drive it straight from the Japa into the sacks, dry them and sell them. Then you could easily sell 10", 12", 16", 20" no matter wgat the demand is. That could allso be a version of value added firewood 👍🏼😉😁!
Congratulations on your 20k subscribers !
Thank you Danny!!
That perfect split system is well, perfect! Great video, thanks for sharing. I think IBC totes would be handy to have around, I'm working on sourcing them for a reasonable price in my area.
The IBC Totes are a Game Changer, for you to use a your tractor and the Hookeroon, with out bending your back, and putting the wood in the Japa 405 with the box Wedge is a Home Run,
You got that right Ebele!!!
A couple questions for you. Who makes the blue log pick you're using? And have you ever looked into a litter bucket for your tractor? I have a dirt bucket, litter bucket, and forks for L4701, and the litter bucket stays on there 90% of the time, and the forks the rest. I move log rounds in the litter bucket, and it's great for brush and snow (not that I've used mine for snow here in Georgia...). The dirt bucket just doesn't hold enough rounds or brush to be very useful to me, so it's only used on those rare occasions I move dirt or stone. IBC totes are great. The 330 gallon totes are right at 1/3 cord when you fill them to the top and drop a dozen pieces in between the two stacks. The 275's hold close to a 1/3 when you over-stack them, but that makes them a pain to move around. I'm sure you've seen Adam @ Hometown Acres collection of totes.
Hi JC. The blue tool is a Hookaroon made by Logrite. Great company. I have a bucket but I rarely have my grapple off the tractor. Great tool.
I've acquired over the past year or so a dozen or more IBC...for me they work great to split into off the Axis and then stage for stacking or dumping. With the cost of them now I can't get enough to justify drying wood in them. They are plenty handy though. 😀
Hi Circle B - it's Big Rodders in Ireland. I'm with you on that score - I see totes over here advertised for $50, which just makes them uneconomical to consider as seasoning units. I would need 28 of them for one year's consumption!
I agree. Cost is the big deal for them. It would be nice to get a bunch of them for free!!
You got it goin on man!
You could give away that tractor 😂 I'd love to have that.
Nice setup bud, turns work into fun!
ha ha... I could use another tractor too!!
You should set up a booth at the Canfield fair
I drove past it yesterday and there was some things being set up. Is that for the fair now? Or is something else going on this weekend??
@@ohiowoodburner probably something else, the fair is around Labor Day
hi there see you in the fall at the P/B show john
See you too John!
All the sawdust you have get a pellet machine sell them also for smoking
That Perfect Split wood be perfect for my bagging operation!!!
It sure would buddy!!
Hi, Joe. My wife and I are anxious to meet you Saturday. Actually, she just wants to know what we will win (ha ha).If you can, please bring a bag of Hickory wood chips for me to buy. Thanks, see you tomorrow.
Not going to make this meet up. I got roped into dog sitting for my sister. Going to try to make the Paul Bunyan show. Watched your video from last year and looks fun.
Hope to see you at the Paul Bunyan show! Already have commitment for this Saturday unfortunately.
Thanks Steve. Will see you at the PB!
It's a long shot but I have a ton of boiler wood you can have. Maybe 4 dump trailer loads. If you ever wanted to come pick up a load. I'm about 45 minutes west of you maybe.
No thanks Jeff! LOL. I'm not into boiler wood. I will be GTG with my current program!!!
A real wood hound would have called in sick the next day to work and hauled every last stick of the free wood home! Heck...I am 4 plus hours away and was thinking about what trucking cost would be inorder to get it, while splitting wood yesterday!🤠
@@waynetharp Hey if you decide you want some, please let me know! My woodyard is back off the road a ways. Easily accessible by light and medium duty trucks.
The perfect split system is the ticket for your business model - enjoy your insight and levity - cheers
Thanks Bob!
Didn't expect that you would run the diesel that high rpm to be honest
Smaller engines seem to run higher RPMs. My Cummins preferred 1800- 2200. But the smaller generators we were getting in the army a few years back would run at a higher RPMs to avoid wet stacking when under low loads and to get to the power level needed while avoiding extra weight that would be required from adding the extra metal to reinforce the engine to make power at a low rpm.
Yup. That is the designed RPM for the 405.
👍👍
Thanks Scott
Does the diesel powered machine have a hood for the engine?
Progress progress is the name of the game. Like I said when you were putting those mats down looks like you would need more. Cant make this meet and great so I guess I am a square ! 😎
ha ha!! Not too square to call you a friend Frank!!
Regarding the diesel do not put the same oil in it😅 you put in your car. Diesel motor oil will generally say on the container that is contains diesel motor oil usually 40 weight. This will prevent you from damaging your Diesel engine. Do not use multi weight oil in it.
Good job Joe!
Thanks Mike!!
Hi Joe, I live in SE PA so it is a little to far for the get together. But when we were working in DC on a bridge for three weeks we found a Mission BBQ and it was great. Ron USCG MKC RET
Thanks for the comment Ron. Mission is a great place for sure
You definitely have a great set up there brother. 👌🏻🔥🇨🇦
Thanks bud!! It is a lot of fun too👍
Look how much time you could save delivering in IBC totes!
I hear you Jim but I don't think I will be changing my delivery model. Plus I'm in no hurry LOL
Those ibc tots makes things easier for you joe
They sure do Dale. I'm supposedly getting some more this week. We shall see.
Joe you can sell the saw dust an other way to make money . Great clean up and video
I prob could but I am giving to my nephew now for his chickens. Thanks Bob!
Joe, how many times you think you handle each stick of wood?....
I think alotta folks don't understand the actual time involved because they just make 1 phone call and abracadabra the whole load just shows up and gets stacked where they want it.... no clue on the actual time involved as well as equipment costs and fuel...
LOL I'm not the person to ask. I never seem to keep that much detail in my day. I just do what I enjoy doing and keep doing it!! Thanks Greg
Lazier folk tie the IBC tote to the fork backplate & just tip 'em Joe. :-) Lazier/tired-er.. I like tipping...
Not many lazier than me at times Jim. It is a good way to become more efficient!!
That cool joe but it give you sone thing to think about
I'm always looking to improve Bob!!
Your whole system is looking good! 👏👍
Thanks buddy!!
Great video Joe, but I think your Axis splitter probably has hurt feelings seeing all those single rounds go through the perfect split. You ought to get you a Dr Pepper, sit by the Axis and talk soothing words to while you sip your drink lol. Have a great 👍 day
Ha ha! I am sure it is doing well. It is a tough machine!
Hey Joe will you and the team at japa Be at woodsman show in Boonville New York on the weekend of August 19th ??
I can only speak for myself Paul. I am not going. I hope to get there sometime however!
@@ohiowoodburner Thanks for getting back to me Joe, I hope you have a great day.
I most strangely find this entertaining. Nice videos
Must be my good looks?!?!? LOL thanks Pal Frode
I really like the ibc totes, got lucky today and scored 21 totes for $ 20 each from a local petroleum supplier.
That is a great deal buddy!
You need a sea can 20’ long make a good wood shed joe . Can’t look at wood for building the $$$ is crazy.
I think you are right Len. I am in a holding pattern with that project right now
Be sure to share some video from Saturday’s event. I really hate I can’t make it. Why are you quitting for the day before you get a good sweat ring going?
ha... Me and heat DO NOT get along anymore!!!
Why dont you just scoop up what you can in your bucket then hand fill what will fit into your bucket and then just drive over to your wood shed and dump it in. or just to the 405. of course you will have to load up all those chucks you have blocking your wood shed. that will save a lot of labor
Meh... I could but I have my trailer hooked up to the tractor when I'm processing. It becomes a pain to unhitch and hitch up at times. This way I can leave my grapple on the FEL
Where do I get a hook that your using for these rounds? No bending over.
And here’s to channel growth…200,000 subscribers & 40,000,000 views!!! Keep up the great business advice. Tim in northern TN
Wouldn't that be nice Tim!?!?! Thanks buddy
Hi Joe, working in long grass in shorts, are you not afraid of getting bitten by ticks with possible Lyme disease?
I have pulled 11 ticks off of me this summer so far Larry. I haven't had a bad bite however
I have a source for FREE IBC totes, they had water based traffic paint in them so if you want to use the bladders they will need cleaned, I use them for animal shelters and such, worth the price of cleaning them out because of the purchase price, lol... Only thing about them is they may be too far for you to think they are worth coming to get... Located near Charleston, WV I agree though, these things are very handy for all sorts of uses!
Yup... wayyyyy to far! You could prob sell them and make some $$
Are you going to bag and sell the clean sawdust?
Eventually probably. I don't have the bandwidth right now to deal with it Keith!
Great video, thanks for taking your time to educate us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Howdy joe I’m not going to make it on Saturday I really wanted to sorry ps my parents said I started out as a mistake lol great camera work on your videos
Bummer Bill. I was wanting to see you. Maybe next time!!
What you are calling a day won't fill an IBC tote.
today wasn't a typical day. It was a sunday and was just some quick clean up.
The first to like cheers 🍻
You are always first on my list buddy!!!
Good Morning Joe, smart way of stacking, straight from the Tote, se ya Saturday God willing, 🚜🪵👍🏼🇺🇸
Holy cow Larry!! It would be great to see you both!!
Joe, my friend, hi, you have a waste-free production, everything is NEAT👍, I would like to meet Taba at a barbecue with great pleasure🍢🔥
Спасибо Виктор! Сохраняйте спокойствие, на улице очень ГОРЯЧО!
