    Morning Chris, busy as a bee today, if the Swedish Candle prove to be popular and highly profitable, you can make them out of sound, solid rounds with a Bandsaw. The oddball size “cookies” would be best the shorter than normal the easier to cut. A backyard fire pit with 3 or 4 stacked could be quite a show, for people who have “money to burn”. No waste either, you get the center of the round to sell. Have a good weekend

    There is no need for the Swedish candles to be exactly 16 inches long. You might consider adjusting the lengths so that there is no odd-length cutoff and you get one extra candle per log..

    • @InTheWoodyard
      @InTheWoodyard  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, but 16" is a easy size to lift when they are big. But adding a 1/2" to each would work out fine...next time Thomas, thanks!

    • @thomasgreene5750
      @thomasgreene5750 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@InTheWoodyard I was thinking that you might shorten each piece so that the short cutoff turns into a longer, saleable piece, giving you an extra candle piece to sell out of each log. At $25 a pop, it is probably worth your time. From the look of the cutoffs, you would probably have to cut the rounds to 14 to 14.5 inches rather than 16 inches.

    The efficiency talk is great, I took in about 16 full cords worth of log loads last spring, we also had a lot of snow, when the wood started coming in (7 truck loads - dumpster roll off style) my yard had about 12" if glacier on it, then the melt off happened and I had dirt soup for a month, I decided to centralize my cutting and splitting, the cutting not so bad, but when I was splitting I ended up making a huge heap, like 12ft wide x 30ft long and 10ft high, now I have been struggling to get motivated in moving it to stack it out, I would have been way easier to split near the stacking area and make rows like what you do, now I have to load the bucket on the tractor, drive, dump, repeat then stack it, Touching the splits way to much.

    Chris, would it be possible to get pallet forks and build pallet racks? This way you can split and stack at same time. Once stacked on pallet right off splitter you are done handling it. You then could even load pallet in truck or trailer then manually unload at customers. You could get a carryall frame and do 2 pallets at once. One on front forks one on back carryall. You have plenty of tractor that your not using. My custom built carryall hauls just over one face cord…or I should say just over half of a full cord (24-28”) It’s 3 point though. Lot better lifting capacity except no height. It’s too bad you don’t live closer. I’d have you setup in no time and I’d also revamp that splitter to work more efficiently.

    • @InTheWoodyard
      @InTheWoodyard  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      No thanks, I am much more efficient cutting directly on the pile all at once then splitting all at once then stacking all at once all in the same spot no moving wood, that is how I usually do it most of the time.

With this type of grapple you can move logs and also split pc. to load into your trailer. Also he has the same wood splitter that you have. His slide needs some oil on it. GP's paint is all wore off. # grapple ,check it out Chris. Just more the # sign closer to the grapple as one word. you tu*e will not let me put it in close, it turns blue 😨 Swedish candles are Great for backyard fires and Football games. 😁🏈 Chris, what if you took your chain saw and made a (+) cross on them to give it a start to split, Just asking.

    I get a lot of 36 40-in rounds.

  • @iPhil77
    @iPhil77 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Try to hit the edge of the round and then work on it, from outside to the inside.
    Less chances of cracking the axe handle on the misses. This information is from Buckin’ Billy Ray on YT.

      I have only split about 5000 cords of wood over the last 50 years, I am still learning. Those rounds had cracks in them that I was using to pop them apart, you are right though on a solid piece I work off the edges first.

    How about moving the chunks in the bucket down the bottom rather than splitting then moving?. Less journeys to make

      That would work too, but they still have to be moved.

    Chris you really need to use your tractor more to help save your back. Cutting the large logs off the ground.. You paid good money for it so use it to your advantage 😏.

    • @InTheWoodyard
      @InTheWoodyard  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Time....., get the tractor drive it over, lift a log, get off the tractor start the saw, cut the log, move the rounds, get back on the tractor, get another log over and over. Cut it all, split it all, stack it all with as little moving the wood as possible.

  • @brianfletcher7942
    @brianfletcher7942 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    It’s hard to remember that the tractor with grapple is on site to aid in lifting those rounds to the splitter table for back saving assistance, with being so accustomed to manually laboring them. 🤷 🤷 🤷

    • @InTheWoodyard
      @InTheWoodyard  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Time Brian, lifting one round at a time with the tractor would take way to long and I like to split wood with an axe for some much needed exercise!

      I have an 10 lb. a 8 lb. and 2-6 lb. mauls, the Fiskars x27 is MUCH better for splitting 95% of the time, I don't get to tired after 2-3 hours as I do with a heavy maul. Try one and you will know why!

  • @tassi13827

    Instead of stacking the wood in the bucket and then dumping them and then handling again to stack how about a pair of forks on the tractor and then have a pallet on the forks, stack the splits on the pallet and not have to handle again. Drive the pallet load to your stacking area. There would be a half cord per pallet. I watch you spending so much time bending over to pick up the splits and then stacking. Eliminate that part of the operation.
