    Chris - all these people that want to slow you down by using your tractor should just show up in the woodyard and chuck the rounds as you do the sexy cutting of the logs. I agree with you, use the tractor where it makes sense (moving cookies, trash, etc) and keep on cutting and getting after the benjamins. GNI

    Good morning Chris!!😀😀
    The reason there is sand in it is because of the skidder operator not giving a crap if they pick up a big pile of dirt along with the wood when they are skidding it. I will not allow the guy that normally skids behind me skid any wood that I'm going to take home and cut.
    If we are working close to my place and there is wood that I'm going to buy and bring home. I tell them to leave it alone and I will go over to the job with my forwarder and load it up and bring it home. That way there is no sand in it at all because I give a crap about how much dirt I get in the pile.
    With the bark coming off like that. It must be half dried out already.
    Locust is also so hard that it will dull the chain even if is clean.
    Take care buddy!!😀😀👍👍

    The Ironwood Dad and I used to cut for firewood was so freaking hard, it would dull the chains very quickly. And these were trees we cut down ourselves, so no dirt or sod. Burned forever, though once it seasoned- so there is that!

    That locust bark is murder on a chain even if it's never touched the ground. After watching your sharpening method many times, I finally pulled out the Dremel tool and some Oregon grinding stones and gave it a try this morning. Took less than 3 minutes on my first try and I've never had my saw that sharp other than brand new. Now that I know that I can get it that sharp I don't think I'll be able to go back to a file. I will be investing in a cordless Dremel to take in the woods.

    I have seen you work your system quite effectively on bucking up your logs and it works for you. I say you do you. I know all the replies are just trying to help lessen wear and tear on your body. My suggestion is getting a longer bar then you can "stand up and buck" as 'ol Buckin would say. Of course that means bar purchase as well as chain purchase and more teeth to sharpen...I saw you just stocked up on bars and chains so maybe next time. Happy cutting, splitting, and stacking my friend!

      I see sparks a lot even in the sun, it is from sand and small stones in the bark, summer cut wood is like that winter cut wood usually has no dirt, sand , mud or rocks in it because of frozen ground and snow.

    Do you sometimes wish Tony still had his axis for sale?
    It would've been a great step up from where you are now and a whole lot cheaper than any processor that isn't a toy.
    The draw back would be getting rounds to it but I'm sure you'd work that out quickly.
    When you think about it what's the difference between moving logs to a processor compared to moving rounds to an axis.

    Are the 4" cookies at the end of the 100" logs worth the trouble? Why not cut six rounds of 16-2/3" each from each log? You would be making 16% less cuts per log.

    Nice, you cut a good bit of high BTU generating locust rounds. True Grit is a great movie, but lousy on your chainsaw teeth when mixed in with the wood pile. Better get Mr Dremel out and resharpen your chains . Then you’ll be ready for round #2 with the locust pile.

    The japa processor would be perfect for that locust. You would just have to justify the over $13000.00 price tag for their cheapest unit. I would love to have one but just can't justify that much of an investment but for your size business it might be worth it.

    Chris, from what we see you have a very substantial firewood business, with an ever expanding customer base, and profitable. You spend half your life cutting rounds, moving them, and then splitting them....... John delivers your wood consistently the same length, straight and usually around 10"/12". Yet you complain that the process is hard work and labor intensive so subsequently prices are too low. Therefore, the way to make more cash $$$$$ with a lot less effort, and make the tax man pay for some of it = JAPA 365!! 😀
