    You say entry level saws as you're straight just flying thru like a hot knife in butter😂 If i get some wood measured out i may try this, its hard to eyeball a cord😂
    Ill say it 100 times over and over, theres no money in firewood, until you have 150k into equipment that can pump out cords in 15-20min. Even then you still have that equipment to pay off eventually before it becomes profitable.🤷‍♂️ Firewood is fun though, keeps my adhd at bay and keeps me happy!!!
    Its very time consuming procuring wood like you did here, but again so much more satisfying gathering it yourself.

    Good job, I used to have a bilke S3 and a 80hp tractor, the bilke is the fastest machine out there in my opinion however like many automated or semi automated processors they make a-lot of junk, bugs , rot and small pieces. I still sold out every year i had this machine but I had 0 repeat customers now I do it with saws and splitter much slower and better quality control and I now have lots of repeat customers. Fast does not equate quality. Getting it off a property like you are is a good amount of extra work make sure you price it as high as you can 🤑

    Hi Kenny
    Is that 25 cords of wood or bush cords ? 4x8x16 wide or 4x8x4 feet wide ? I've done the math and have thousands of bush cords of wood in my wood lot and I don't burn wood in my house. At my cabin I burn about 3 wheel barrows of split wood from the spring to the fall. I get all the wood for free but getting it , cutting , splitting , all the equipment needed and transporting it , then stacking it is just not feasible when my gas bill for heat for a year is about $800-900 . I know someone that makes a living from selling wood in the countryside that has no natural gas available and has never cut down a tree yet . Yep logs delivered , processed with a very expensive processor that piles split wood about 50 feet high and 100 feet around . Takes a lot of money to make money selling wood . 😅😂
