Always watch you channel. Love the way you too work together. I have been married 45 years and love my wife like the day we married, that said, if asked to do what Karen does she would balk. Very impressed! Keep up the great work!❤
Thanks Wayne for watching we appreciate that . Trust me theres plenty of days Karen says no way but for the most part she is right there when i need her .
Karen, supervision is always necessary with Phil! How quickly he forgets! Thank goodness you keep him straight. PB&J for you tonight Phil!!!! Great Video, always fun watching you guys work! ❤💜
There is nothing like good old American red neck engineering. I can't believe how large of logs those little lifts can load. That gets my stacking machine started too.
Thanks James not looking like we are going to get much from that storm but its better to be safe than sorry . Ya them lil machines do a good job i think they can lift around 2000 lbs but im not sure .Some days i wonder why she puts up with me lol.
Great video. We are prepared as much as I can for hurricane Lee. Used my garden tractor to push rounds out of the Fiona pile to the splitter. Beats walk-in back and forth. I see Karen has her boots on. These boots are made for stacking. 🤭 And, I had to rewatch how to get your stacking machine going a few times. 🤭 Your getting back in the groove with the sawing and splitting Phil. That’s good. So, hope fully no damage from Hurricane Lee for you guys. Have a great day.
Thanks Noel probably wont amount to much here but cant hurt to have a plan just in case . Karens coming around to the idea of wearing work boots slowly . The tractor works great for pushing the rounds closer much better than walking for them . I think its going to take a bit to build my arm back up its ben over 2 months of not using it an the strength is gone but a tank of gas threw the saw every day will build it up fast im thinking .
The docs said the bone shoulda healed up by now but due to me not stopping an pushing it that its going to take alot longer . Its ben a challenge to put gloves on an take them off . I know that stretch wrap stuff thats on my thumb helps alot to get the swelling down im no doc but it might help ya get back into boots a lil faster .
Love bucking off the tractor! I got sick of losing measuring sticks so I made a few from dowel rod and painted them orange! The 500i was cutting nicely, then the forks hit. My stacker has a similar start switch. Buster is still plenty fast turned down a bit.
I keep saying im gona buy a dowel an paint up a few but i havant done it yet lol. Them forks get me every now an then usually after i just get done sharpening the saw but the forks sure make it nice not bending over . Boy did i ever get a talking to after the camera was off lol im surprised she put that in the video but ya gota have fun if ya going to work hard . Probably going to turn it back up when she is not there for the day an i have some nice wood to send threw it .
That pink tape was gone before the day ended i should have just done it first thing in the morning but i know my doc just started watching our videos an i gota at least look like i try an do what she asks . Thanks Steve
Phil I know I would have gotten the same reaction from my wife under those circumstances, yet it was a very productive day overall. Truly enjoy your videos so keep them coming!
. Thanks Bill cutting splitting and stacking a cord in a day is good but i need to get back to doing 2 a day . We really appreciate ya watching our videos
Well it definitely got her fired up Kenny lol. I figure the best way to get my arm back in shape is to start using it an burn a tank threw the saw every day ,shouldnt take long an it will be back like it was .
Good video and job you both got a lot lot done. I hope I never get your doctor she needs to be took to the wood shed. I hope you don't get any damage. Take care, be safe and well.
Kinda a running joke at the docs each week when she askes what i did for work all week lol an i tell her i ran a saw an split wood . I think she figures i wont go do all that stuff if she puts pink stuff on me but its gona take more than a pink bandaid to keep me outa the woodyard . Thanks John
Thanks Ethan i think its more to get even with me for running the saw an woodsplitter . I only do about half of what the doc says to do an she knows this so its just her way of getting even lol.
Phil, starting up your stacking like you did, just keep in mind the stacking machine can put laxative in your supper, be kind be nice good help is difficult to find but to be fair it was funny lol.
Hey Phil and Karen , great video . Hope the storm doesn’t hit to hard . I grew up on the coast of NC and SC and have lived thru some bad hurricanes . I was stationed at Myrtle Beach when HUGO hit . Y’all stay safe !!!! 👍🏻🇺🇸🪵
Probably wont be much for wind , They always like to talk em up on tv to get everyone wound up . Im sure it will rain plenty but after this yr we are used to that . Thanks Dell
Good job splitting that wood Nice when you get free wood You don't get too much free wood around here Sometimes when not all the time So stay safe and have a good day And I hope that's till I'm don't get yours We'll catch you on the next one
Thanks Frank Most of the tree companys are happy to not have to haul the wood away but you have to make it easy for them thats why i show up with the big trailer that will hold 18 ft sticks so they can just load us up fast . If i showed up with a lil trailer an wanted to cut it up 16 in lengths and hand load it i would be in there way .
Looks like it’s Chef-boy-ar-dee for you Phil, don’t go messing with that pretty little stackin’ machine! Your new MS 4000 looks like a big Slim Jim- there’s a idea, at the end of the day it would make a nice snack to go with the Mtn. Dew Take care🇺🇸🇺🇸
They are good Karen, no matter what the ingredients are, I was thinking if Phil was a good boy and behaved that day, you could break off pieces and alternate treats between Phil and your beautiful Labrador😂
She was in a good mood today so i figured i had some leeway lol i was wrong i picked up a pizza on the way home tonight . Ya i need a new stick again but most of the time i just eyeball it an its close the stick just lets me ck every now an then .
Have you guy’s seen the new conveyor you use to put rounds up to. Splitter table I think it’s remote control. It’s wider and you can cut rounds and let them fall on conveyor. It will save y’all’s backs a lot. Your help will love you more
glad to see you back in working shape right as the good fall weather is starting to show up. excited to see you turn that splitter back up! Stay safe though
What a spring an summer for rain . I dont know the numbers but i bet we have set alot of records for rainfall . I just hope it dont carry over into winter an we get a bunch of 2 ft storms back to back .
I have it slowed down to about a 5 sec cycle time an to be honest thats about as fast as i can go an keep up with it . Down around 2 seconds i can only hold up for 5 -10 min keeping up with it . With the right kind of wood an 2 good working hands its fun to really go threw the wood in a hurry . Karens always keeping an eye on me but we enjoy working together .
Hey Phil go home and try starting your oven and stove the same way you started that stacker it seemed to start the stacker just fine maybe it'll start your stove just as well and you can have some supper
Thanks Robert im perdy limited on using the stove or any of the appliances in the house . I just called ahed an ordered a pizza on the way home . No fear of me going hungry .
Always having fun is the key to getting things done Rick . I probably wouldnt want to be out on the ocean for the storm but id be surprised if we get much for wind inland 10 miles .
Thx for great video! I would buy a Sappie if I was her, to bend over might harm your back in the long run. A Husqvarna Sappie 80cm or perhaps a Fiskars, the fiskars are great but they are light which is not always a great thing since if you dont hit hard enough using your arm your sappie might bounce of the wood instead of get stuck in the wood. Just a thought, your doing great! :)
As good as that fan works i think we are going to add another over on her side the next time its hot out . Im surprised how much that helps . Thanks Tracey
Thats a good saying i gota remember that one lol. Im not 100% with the saw yet id say more like 60% but just like anything if ya keep at it long enuf it will come around . Thanks Jason
As far as needing a measuring stick I say after you cut a few hundred times I would think you could get really close to 16" without a stick. Is 15" or 17" a throw out piece?
Lol i think in the video i said dont try this at home . I didnt have to lock her out but i did have to stop an get my own dinner that night on the way home lol.
Yes it dose but im guessing we wont get much of that wind it will be alot of rain an if its raining i want the roof on so i can keep splitting . Plan to cut up a cord or 2 tomorow an have it ready to go so we can work threw the rain . But if it picks up i can always just set the forks un top of the roof to keep it put .
Phil do you have trouble burning firewood that has been hit by lighting. When I was young and lived with my grand-pa he never cut firewood that had been hit by lighting mostly poplar and pine.
It burns the same as all the other wood . We had a lightning struck tree last yr that we sawed on the mill and the rest of the pine tree went into campfire wood . We get quite a few lightning struck trees from the tree company’s and it’s just the same as any other wood .
Phil I wouldn’t be surprised if your Dr watches your videos 😂😂. Remember Phil, REAL men wear pink 😍 Is it just me or did ya notice the chain saw has a face? It looks like a woman character. You should name her Charli😜. Love yas❣️
I dont think the Dr was in the beginning but im perdy sure she does now . We had a lil chat the other day about how pink was not an option going forward lol. I will have to go back an watch that video again now to see the face your talking about .
It was a piece of cake it didnt even rain . We got a lil wind but nothing crazy . The weather people always hype it up to get folks to watch them . Gota be the only job you can be wrong at 90% of the time an still keep ya job .
It was only 1 cord of wood that is taking it easy . To be honest the saw dont hardly bother the thumb its more i have no strength in that hand or arm thats keeping me from running the saw all day . Once i can build that back up its game on .

No pb&j for me mom i gota drive right by the store on the way home . I was due for a good pizza lol.
Yes, very productive day!!!!! Chef boy Ardee for FRESH Phil-e. Too funny! The look on Karen’s face, priceless!!!!😂
The look was priceless an so was what she said after the camera was off lol.
@@AllenFamilyFirewood Hahahahahaaha, I bet!!!
I would call that a good productive day! Well done you two👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Todd it was only a cord but they add up .

Just took our two mile walk with Tuck had some supper and now relaxing to catch up on my favorite firewood video’s!!
Sounds like a good way to spend the evening to me . Thanks Sue
Great video Guys!! Be careful with the hurricane headed y'alls way!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks David they never amount to much by the time they make it up here but we have a plan just in case .
Great video. We are prepared as much as I can for hurricane Lee.

It all takes time . We don't heal as fast as we use to . I got two more weeks before I get to put boots on but doing well!😊

First time viewer. I enjoyed it over a cup of coffee and a small fire to take the chill off. Nice way to start my day. Thank you both.
Thanks glad to have ya along for the ride . We have ben having mornings in the 40s for the last week .
Welcome back Pinky 👍 Maybe Paint those forks hi-vis pink 👀 And keep that stacking machine running🤣
Lol 😂 he’s gonna have to do something drastic to keep me there if he’s gonna act like that!

Love the way you fire up your stacker. LOL!
Just like the old tvs sometimes ya needed to give em a good wack to get em fired up lol . Thanks Philip
The doctor must watch inthewoodyard and puts pink tape on everything. Glad to see you get back at it.
Thanks Ethan i think its more to get even with me for running the saw an woodsplitter . I only do about half of what the doc says to do an she knows this so its just her way of getting even lol.
@AllenFamilyFirewood yeah I know what you're saying I can not set still no matter what
Phil, starting up your stacking like you did, just keep in mind the stacking machine can put laxative in your supper, be kind be nice good help is difficult to find but to be fair it was funny lol.
Lol, thanks Ben. Believe me, I know she can retaliate! I try to keep it to a minimum. Appreciate you watching and commenting! Take care!

Good cutting and splitting session guys. Phil I think it's a good thing you didn't try kick starting the stacking machine 😂
I think it’s a good thing he didn’t try that too Bob! 😂😂
Lol i think ya right Bob i think it would have kicked back .
Good job splitting that wood Nice when you get free wood You don't get too much free wood around here Sometimes when not all the time So stay safe and have a good day And I hope that's till I'm don't get yours We'll catch you on the next one

Wont be long an ole buster will be running full bore probably have to be a day when Karen aint around though lol. Thanks Brian
Are you guys sure you are in Maine?? The way you guys talk about rain, you would have us all thinking you are in Seattle. 😁👍
Lol, it’s been a Seattle kind of summer here Daniel!
What a spring an summer for rain . I dont know the numbers but i bet we have set alot of records for rainfall . I just hope it dont carry over into winter an we get a bunch of 2 ft storms back to back .
Be careful with the storm and think of all the free wood that will hit the ground.
Im sure the tree companies will get some work outa it but i dont think we are supposed to get hit that bad . Thanks Mike
Your little fan is cute. Keep drinking milk, milk does the body good.
Honestly im surprised how well that lil fan works now i know why you have fans running . Maybe next summer we will upgrade the fan
You wanna put some cable ties on the left side of the handle measure it from bar to cable tie then snip, thats what chris inthe woodyard
i have done that in the past an it works good . Thanks
Love you two,
Thanks
Phil, better to be safe with that splitter. Looks like you are as fast as the Axis right now. You have a partner that looks out for you liije I do!

Thanks Robert im perdy limited on using the stove or any of the appliances in the house . I just called ahed an ordered a pizza on the way home . No fear of me going hungry .
A busy day in the woodyard! Hey Phil how did you do cooking your own dinner?😂😂 Great job team👍👍
I didnt Jerimia i stoped an got a pizza on the way home to be safe . I figured id better not come home an ask lol.
Great times in the Maine Woodyard 🔥🪵🚜👏👍🇺🇸 Rick Y’all be safe, Lee is still a dangerous storm 💨🌊💦
Always having fun is the key to getting things done Rick . I probably wouldnt want to be out on the ocean for the storm but id be surprised if we get much for wind inland 10 miles .
Well Phil soup for dinner tonight but you didn’t put yourself in the dog house ❤😊😮
Lol, give him time Todd 😂
She was in a good mood so i figured id push it a lil . Thanks Todd
Now that's a wood splitter
Thanks it sure gets it done in a hurry i just wish i could go fast enuf to keep it fed
Ya had to rewind, test your generator, get supplies 👍
I doubt we will get much in the way of wind but im sure it will rain plenty just like it has done all spring an summer .

We e had good luck with the log right picaroon but I will look into one of them that huskvarna makes . They sure do save on your back .
Need to talk to back 40 firewood. He can tell you more about it. Let me know what you think
Phil why you got the fan turned on you Karen doing all the work, just kidding great video guys!!!!
As good as that fan works i think we are going to add another over on her side the next time its hot out . Im surprised how much that helps . Thanks Tracey
🤘”Not today. Get to work!” She has spoken!😅
You got that right lol.
As the saying goes, ya gotta grab the bull by the horns and jump back into it. As my grandfather used to say, rub some dirt on it and lets get moving.
Thats a good saying i gota remember that one lol. Im not 100% with the saw yet id say more like 60% but just like anything if ya keep at it long enuf it will come around . Thanks Jason
Sounds like a order pizza type of night
And he did! 😂
Lol just got done eating a small peperoni pizza David you nailed it .
As far as needing a measuring stick I say after you cut a few hundred times I would think you could get really close to 16" without a stick. Is 15" or 17" a throw out piece?
I usually use my stick. My eyesight isn’t the greatest lol
So I tried that with my stacking machine/chicken fence mower/firewood length marker and had to lock her out side so I wouldn’t get murdered.
Lol i think in the video i said dont try this at home . I didnt have to lock her out but i did have to stop an get my own dinner that night on the way home lol.
She should have a backtrack on & who made that splitter? Nice
John i think ya right i will talk to Dana an see what we can put together
? Didn’t you say the roof over the splitter comes off 😅😅 so you can take off for the hurricane??
Lol, I mentioned that but he said it was too much work. Tractor forks it is! 😂

I know how you feel about having your thumb rewrapped I over did it with my finger thats why I havent put any recent videos out
I think the doc is just getting tired of seeing me come in every week lol. I have to keep it wrapped up or it just swells up .
That young lady of yours is working right along with you. Maybe a little harder.
Karens a tough one for sure she has to be to put up with me lol .
Between your thumb and my eye surgery, we'd make a great pair!
Ive managed to keep splitting for the last 2 months with one hand but i dont think id want to try it not seeing very good . Thanks for stopping by
@AllenFamilyFirewood my right eye is perfect. The left is is crap.. Thank God he fitted me with a spare eye!
lol !!!!
lol thanks for watching
Hello Guys, Take it easy Dude! You only have 2 Thumbs 😂🪵👍🏼🇺🇸
Thanks guys! He’ll never take it easy though 🙄
It was only 1 cord of wood that is taking it easy . To be honest the saw dont hardly bother the thumb its more i have no strength in that hand or arm thats keeping me from running the saw all day . Once i can build that back up its game on .
