Nice job Todd. The reality is that fire pits don’t require pretty splits, but for folks like us “keeping peace with our minds eye” is important.
You’re absolutely right! Most folks that are buying firewood probably don’t even look at it the same way we do😂 I appreciate ya Larry👊🏻
I keep all the real ugly stuff for my fire pit and wood stove. I know it doesn’t have to be pretty to make heat 😂. Nice work getting through that pile of tree service wood. The tree service is much harder to work with than the firewood logs I buy.
Yeah I usually fill up totes with uglies and sell them cheap in the fall/ winter! Great for garage woodburners that don’t want to spend a lot heating a building. I heat my garage with some and sell the rest! Yeah log piles like you buy would take a lot of the time out of it and less wrestling around big rounds! You know I like to stack the rounds as well so it’s easier when splitting. Take care Russ and thanks for watching 👊🏻
Todd it looks like you've been pretty busy. You have to take the good with the bad it all makes firewood. I get the ugly stuff and hopefully sell the rest. I'm hoping I can get to splitting soon, between work and the weather etc. not much splitting going on for me. Take care.
Hello Ben. You are absolutely right when it comes to free!!! I came out ok. This tree service dump just took me a lot longer because of the size of the logs!I hope you get some time soon for splitting. I appreciate ya stopping by👊🏻
That’s the deal with tree service wood we get a lil bit of everything . Having the market to sell a lil bit of everything is key .
You’re not kidding! Or a big dump pile or ditch to fill😂The good definitely out weighed the ugly on this tree service! Thanks for watching Phil👊🏻
@@toddsoutsideagain Yup around here the nasty stuff goes right to the mulch place .
Hey Todd. A lot of folks simply won't mess with the real big tree service wood. I think you've shown that if you have the right equipment, and you're willing to put a little additional work into it, you can still come out with a LOT of nice firewood.
Very true! I’m probably gonna be one of those people after another load like this with no equipment to move it😂 Takes a lot more time to process it down! You do get a lot but it makes ya wonder if the added stress on your body is worth it. I appreciate ya Dick👊🏻
Hey Todd the inventory is looking good. But some of that wood is real ugly lol. Take it easy buddy.
Yeah I’m betting it was about 60/40!! 60% being really nice firewood so I guess when it’s free that’s ok. I appreciate ya Dean👊🏻🇺🇸
That woodspliter you have is painfully slow to watch, time to get a real one like an eastomade!
Well Martin I have enjoyed running this Pro! It’s not fast but it’s a real splitter! It just happens to be their entry level commercial. I will be switching it out soon! Lotta real splitters out there that aren’t orange and blue😂 Thanks for watching 👊🏻
Way to push through that big tougher tree service wood. It really slows ya down and takes the fun out of firewood at times.
You got a machine that’ll take care of it, looking forward to what’s next!
Enjoyed it Todd!! 👊🏻🔥🪵🇺🇸
Slow as molasses on a cold windy day😂 Yeah the 28 pushes thru most anything I have thrown at it! Thanks for watching Jacob👊🏻
What choices you have😊.
This splitter with auto cycle and hydraulic adjustable wedge keeps you moving steadily. And tackles the monster logs you keep getting.😊
Lotta great choices!! I have enjoyed running this Pro. It is a little slower for using a single wedge but with the auto and a 4 way ya can like you said gain that time back. We will be switching it out to something I think will fit my operation soon? Thanks for watching 👊🏻
I’m only 30 seconds in and saying out loud “this is why everyone who does firewood should know at least one guy with a boiler” 😂
I wish I had a couple boiler customers! I do sell totes of uglies. I just wish I could fill my dump trailer with them this time of year and deliver them all to free up tote space😂 Thanks for watching 👊🏻
@@toddsoutsideagain yeah down here in NC there’s a good market for firewood but an overwhelming majority of people who burn outdoor boilers are doing it themselves. My neighbor and a friend down the road both run boilers so they keep my woodyard clean…ish those guys will burn anything from a pallets with nails in them to a skid bucket loads full of stumps with the first inch of topsoil under them 🤣
Hi Todd. How's Evan & Kendra liking school?? I'd say you miss Evan's help. Keep on keeping on and we'll see you next time
Hello John. Evan and Kendal are really enjoying college but miss home. Evan has a pretty heavy workload being an engineering major so that’s keeping him real busy! Thanks for stopping by👊🏻
The tree service pine and monkey tree i have been working on was the same way. Punky in places and some of it was firepit food.
Yeah I’m not a fan of spinning my wheels on punky wood but it was just that one log so 🤷♂️ Makes a mess. I on to some good stuff again now. Thanks for watching Daniel👊🏻
I hate punky wood. It makes a really bad mess. I had a 30” Doug Fir log that had about 5” of punk around it. I made some nice bundle grade wood with it. But I had to work around all of the trash that was falling off of it.
Yeah it definitely takes more time to get splits salvaged out of a log when you run into punky wood. Starts getting frustrating to see all the waste 😂 I appreciate ya watching Amanda👊🏻
Todd, at least you got outside and made a little bit of wood 🪵 and you know that you’re neighbor is going to love fire 🔥 pit wood 🪵👍😮😊❤
You got that right! The neighbors are loving that I am out of room for uglies! They have been having a lot of fires😂Thanks for watching Todd👊🏻
Looking good buddy. How much do you sell a cord for in your area?
Mixed hardwoods $300 all oak is $375 plus delivery charges. Not enough is the right answer🤣 Appreciate ya Tom👊🏻
Hello Todd, A busy time of year, Good Show👍🇺🇸
Busy for sure! Gotta keep after it! I appreciate ya Larry👊🏻🇺🇸
Ataboy Todd! Stay after it!
Seems like I have been after it for a while😂 Appreciate ya Mike👊🏻
What the name of your log splitter? Down here in the south that's all we can get, tree service wood. We can't get semi truck loads. But free wood is always a good day.
Hello Jordan it’s a Wolfe Ridge!! Look at the video description for links to my local dealer in St. Louis and also to the Wolfe Ridge website for all their models! I appreciate ya watching and commenting👊🏻
@toddsoutsideagain ok thanks. I started my firewood business going on 4 years. I bought a countryline when I started. I'm still using it. I'm bite the bullet one day and get me a better splitter.
@@JordanSmith-us9sb look at the Wolfe Ridge 22 RS and 17 RS great commercial splitters
That would be nearly impossible for me. That WolfRidge pushed on. Great job. Both you woodyards are looking great I'm looking forward to the next one. Have a great week.
Thanks Jerry! I’m glad it’s almost gone! This tree service load was a challenge! I appreciate ya watching 👊🏻
Hey Todd , nice splitting . You are defiantly running out of room . Take care my friend 👍🏻🇺🇸🪵
Thanks Del. Room is becoming an issue for sure! I would have been Don with this tree service by now if not for that! I appreciate ya👊🏻🇺🇸
I love your woodyard and stacking skills. Top notch Todd.
Thanks Kenny! I appreciate ya👊🏻
Hopefully things have cooled down by you like they have up here!
At the time of this video it was still pretty humid but now we are a lot more comfortable 😂 Thanks for watching Steve👊🏻
You sure did get more good than bad in that massive load! The 28 Pro sure has the power to deal with it. Too bad you don’t have a boiler😂Have a great one Todd👍👊🍻
Yes I did! There was a few massive logs that were donated to the burn pile next door as well. Probably would have been another 3-4 FC out of them if I would have been able to split them! The 28 Pro definitely has some grunt!! If I had a boiler I would not mind taking the extra time splitting the real ugly stuff down! Maybe someday? Thanks for watching Jeremiah 👊🏻🍻
I wish ny woodyard was half as organized as yours! Great job.
Enjoying the content as usual!
Thanks. I do like to keep up with it. I’m glad you are enjoying what I’m doing. Appreciate ya watching 👊🏻
Boy that first piece was a nice one. lol! Good piece for a boiler or wiener roast. Take care Todd!👍🏻
Yeah I ran into some real nice ones in my attempt to fill the trailer😂 Boiler would be a great investment for me! I appreciate ya stopping by Rod👊🏻
That was some nasty stuff at the end. Neighbors fire pit or find someone with a boiler, that's how I peddle my nasty stuff. Take care Todd.
Yeah it looks to have been just the one log that was crumbly and punky. I’m still happy with the ratio of good vs bad out of this tree service dump! Thanks for watching Bobby👊🏻🥃
Nice work brother 👍., will catch you on another one. Great week ahead to you and the family.🍺☑️.
Thanks Richy! Got the chance to see Evan this weekend. He just left. It was great and it’s got me refueled for the week ahead. Thanks brother👊🏻
Evan call screaming about 'Bama's huge win?
Figure out the % of work he did yet? More than ya thought I bet
😂 Evan was actually home this weekend but was at a wedding during the game! We rewatched it this am before he went back. He left about an hour ago! He was bummed he missed the game. Heck of a game. I was about to lose my mind in the second half!! Roll tide Roll‼️ Thanks for watching Brandon👊🏻
Really turned out to be a great score. Keep splitting!
It really has. Keeping me busy in between everything else I have going on😂 I appreciate ya Robert👊🏻
Sure feels satisfying when you get through a big pile of tree service stuff and can rake up all the debris and make your work area nice and clean again. Nice neat inventory of wood you have there!
Satisfying is one reason I do firewood!! It’s a great feeling to step back and look at what ya accomplished at then end of the day! Instant gratification! I take up after every outing for that reason😂 Thanks for watching Ben👊🏻
Been on the fence between a eastonmade ultra or a wolferidge 22rs. Every dealer I call doesn’t carry the 22rs. They tried to persuade me to get a 28 pro but I just can’t get past that slow cycle time. It would be nice if it had the 6.5 cycle time like the 22rs.
I hear ya Timothy! The cycle time isn’t an issue for me unless I want to split with the single wedge! Then I would rather have the 22RS. I have used both the Ultra and the 22Rs and I really liked the flush table of the Ultra but I really give the edge to the 22RS because of the log lift and the extra splitting force! I’m leaning towards saying the 22RS might be the best machine for my operation as well. Thanks for watching 👊🏻
Great video!! You got a lot of nice looking wood out of some ugly wood!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks. It was a lot more good than bad in the end! I guess that’s part of it. Appreciate ya👊🏻
Well done. You’re getting to the point that most of have a hard time keeping things straight lol. Are you marking or documenting date or species to keep it all straight? Hell you might be far enough ahead it won’t matter. Bulk sales might mess that up maybe sorta lol. Again great job.
Yeah Evan had it all documented and he forwarded it all to me! I have to keep it down too much to remember😂 Yeah we stay so far ahead that it doesn’t matter but selling in bulk really clears it out fast! We sold most everything last year. Thanks for watching Stan👊🏻
Sad to say most of us burn the trash sell the rest. Nice that can drag splitter around. Mine little to much to do that. Nice work.
Yup I burn the ugliest too😂 The 28 Pro is moveable by hand but it is a chore on un level ground! I appreciate ya watching Dan👊🏻
I always take my chunky stuff and put it in a IBC tote let it dry then I use it for fall and spring wood on those cooler nights
Yeah I have totes full of uglies in the other woodyard. I will sell some of them and use the rest to heat my garage this winter. I’m just out of room for them and the neighbor has been wanting some for fires so I have been giving them to him. The stuff burns great just not the best to look at😂 Thanks for watching Kevin👊🏻
A lot of nice wood for sure! Sometimes you just gotta take the good with the bad. Great job on all of that so far! - Tim
Yes it was! Got more good out of it than bad! Just takes a little longer working around all the bad stuff. I appreciate ya watching Tim👊🏻
Yeehaw Todd - the sunset was great!!!
Yes it was! I may have enjoyed it a little too much and ran myself out of time that evening😂 Thanks for watching Kenny👊🏻
Another nice video, like your work 👍🇧🇻
Thanks, I appreciate ya watching Fredrik👊🏻
I can find a time to burn most anything
It all burns. These uglies burn great too! Just not the best to organize and stack. Gotta store them in totes and I’m out of tote space. The neighbor has been enjoying them😂 Thanks for watching Ed👊🏻
Good session
Thanks Chris👊🏻
