Thanks for this. I like your slab cutting jig a lot. Very stable process. Was wondering if you could do a walk about video showing how you made it and point out the sequence of steps. Cheers from the BC southern interior.
Thanks for watching Mike. I am still hoping to at least get started before winter. Have recently been working behind the scenes adding electricity out to my pole barn.
I really like your slab cutting jig. I might steal your idea. Did you ever consider piling the split wood in an IBC tote then storing under a roof till needed? That way handling is reduced once again.
Thanks for watching. I have considered that, but I don't like the idea of reaching over the top and trying to reach the wood at the bottom. Long term I want to get forks for the tractor and make some 3-sided boxes for the firewood.
@@mylifedeliberately Yes, I get that about the totes however I have seen guys cutting a U shape out of one side of the tote in order to alleviate the reach. In my case I have devised a couple of skid bins as you mention. Basically 2x6 frames at three sides strapped together at the top and heavy screen between the openings. I use a sheet of plywood on the forth side with a ratchet strap to prevent the wood from spilling out while moving.
Another good one my friend ! Yes that works great & two or 3 slabs at a time a little faster, 👍When you did the first few I was like you can put more on there lol, I do most of my cutting in winter check out my winter hauling just straight from the bush to the wood box when ever I have the room :) Great Tips Take care
I checked out some of your winter firewood videos. Nice. I thought I might try some tree falling this winter but am concerned about the depth of snow. We can typically have 3 feet most of the winter which might make it too difficult. We will see. Thanks for watching!
@@mylifedeliberately Yes winter can be fun but can be tough some years, We get two to three feet but in my part the snow don't pack it's very dry, video's last winter we had about two feet by first of Jan then after our -50c for two weeks it warmed & we got a bunch of rain day after day & melted half of it from then on it was real easy getting around in the bush :) But the trails were rough, Usually by mid Feb I can't break trails anymore with my sled , Just stay on the old trails, Take care

Thanks!
