- It's that time of the year to fill the woodshed with the wood we'll be burning this Fall. Using the attached conveyor on the Eastonmade 37D, filling the woodshed has never been this easy.

Give Amanda a raise. Shes a worker!! Be safe.
It’s not being lazy, it’s called working smarter!
Not the lazy approach, you are doing it smarter, not harder! We learn that as we get older! Ya got the machine, you might as well use it!
Working smarter, not harder. Anything that makes a job easier, I'm all for it.
Your selection of cutoff polos have been on point lately. Dare I say you're a trend setter? I believe so,
Great way to move wood!! Not lazy, just smarter!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Looks great dan
Nothing wrong with using equipment to make life a little easier..😁👍
Very nice set up, great video👍🏻
Amazing Amanda looks amazing in those shorts nuf said ❤
Yoga pants shorts are the best invention ever!
It's call continues improvement 👍
I no more than said Shifty you better watch your hands and arms than I saw a piece hit your arm. Amanda is a fine worker.
Hahaha...yeah if you're under the conveyor ya gotta pay attention cuz a piece will fly out when ya least expect it.
Great team work
Better than the Wolfridge. Summer Pool Heater coming up, maybe Mr. Scheib will help you out with that project Dan. Great job to Amanda, good worker.
That is definitely working smarter and not harder lol. That's one of the perks to that Eastonmade. Great teamwork with you and Amazing Amanda like usual. Stay safe my friend
Awesome!👍👍
That’s a great machine! Sure would make my life easier.
Great Video my Friends. It's definitely a great way to get your wood in undercover and protected. Ron from Duanesburg.
hi there real good ides , now knowing i am the lazyest wood hound on y/t . if there was room to do it . i may have tried to fill the tractor bucket and dump it slowly onto the convayor , , 2 reasons only have to pick it up once , and the bucket could get closer to the loading area , well done,, you are always thinking of ways of making firewood easier . good show john
Good idea to try different methods to make things easier. In stead of handling the wood twice, perhaps you could have simply used the tractor bucket and dump the rounds directly into the conveyer. Just a thought.
Good way to do it
Fridays livestream I mentioned splitting into a trailer. You said you don’t have a trailer. Sundays video you have a trailer. Use that trailer to split into the pull it to the piles to stack. Stack the big stuff first will be the majority of the load then small split’s somewhere else in there stacks. Then the chaff is all in the trailer no cleanup. Peace
lol....well you said 'dump' trailer...that I don't have. This little utility trailer will probably get used to shuttle wood, however it'll fill up quick I think...haha
Cool video
Good idea guys and you are able to learn a little about the machines capabilities plus get the job done... Very American!!
Definitely a lot easier. Time to crack open a cold one.

Awesome footage 💪
You'll appreciate the fact that you used the "lazy approach" in about another 10 years or so. The older I get , the more I find myself looking for the "lazy approach" to get something done. Man made hydraulics for a reason, use them when you can. Your body will appreciate it when you're older.
Wood hounds 👍👍
Well, the TH-cam high mucky mucks want creators to do more "shorts".
I'd say the Amazing Amanda's "TH-cam shorts" were spectacular.
We process using a Hakki Pilke processor & convey logs into metal stacking crates. Season in those & then load straight to bags for burning - so we handle onto the processor & then bag for taking in the house to burn. Age is a great source of levelling & minimising effort!
Morning Wood hounds, Hey Dan
Good morning 😁👍
@@DanielAtkinsFirewood hey Daniel
This fall maybe you and turn the conveyor around and load the wood right into your trailer. Does your boiler heat your home or an outbuilding?
Just my preference but I would stack the wood the same way you have the two year wood stacked. I do like you idea of multiple sheds adjacent to the boiler and drying the wood for two years!!
That should get you to October ish lol. Living the Wisconsin life lol
Hahahaha....yeah, ya never know.
Pretty soon you'll be needing a fleet of those ultratec dump trailers to keep up with the output of the Eastonmade 37D.
Love it.
Yup I'm Jelly!
Need two conveyers. 🤔. One to put the wood into the trailer. 😁
Is the speed of the conveyer adjustable ?
Nice video. Have a great Sunday.
The speed can sort of be adjusted when just running it alone...the throttle pretty much controls the speed.
This was a great maiden voyage for the conveyor, nice job!!
Nice machine Dan QQQ why don't you stack all the wood to save a lot of space? If you time it just right with Amanda feeding it, looks like you can get twice as much more wood if not three times the amount
It might have worked, but could also end up clunking me in the head pretty easily...lol
Loose stacked is 70% as full as stacked so in my opinion that extra 30% of storage space is not worth the effort.
@@brianrizzi6321 but if you notice they have a lot of room on top to go up! They could get a lot more wood as in two to three times more!
@@Back40Firewood I know stacking wood in getting wood through the winter is not bad but when it's raining at 34° and you're out of wood you're going to remember I should have put more wood in here!🤔🤔🤔
I'm sure someone else asked, but did you consider loading into the tractor bucket, and just dumping onto the conveyor?
I think that would have caused some jams when all the wood got taken up the conveyor...there was a few times I put a few pieces in right after Amanda and the one time the pieces caught the wings of the conveyor where it attaches together.
😊
I would love to own one of those but I can't afford it
Now that you added new colors to the woodyard how long until the color of you chainsaw changes?
Hahahaha....that I think is a long ways off, but ya never know.
Watching this procedure, I thought you could have tweaked the stacking process by having one person load the conveyor with wood, and one person organizing and stacking it against the wall for maximum volume at the other. Now you'll have to move the pieces around to utilize the space more efficiently and load the place up for next winter. Just sayin'.
I just stacked a little on the one outside edge...the rest will stay in a loose pile like it landed. This stuff won't get stacked like the other side of the shed.
isnt it more work to load on the conveyor then have to pick it up again to stack it
We aren't going to stack that pile...I just stacked the one side to hold the pile in from the doorway....not gonna be stacked like the other side of the shed.
Yes you have to test the conveyors....
Why do we have to touch it so much?
It's only touched as much as it needs to be...lol...is there really a limit to the number of touches? hahahaha
Is it really faster because you have to handle the wood 3 times. Load the trailer than unload the trailer onto the conveyor than set up the stacks in the shed. Just asking? At least it was a nice day.
Well the only stacking I did was along the one side, this stuff won't get stacked it will just stay in the loose pile til this Fall.
Add hydraulics to the mix and the work gets easier!
I would be doing the same thing call work smart not hard
A conveyor is areal back saver
You could have at least broken a sweat 😓. Enjoy the new wood 🪵 yard toys. 🥃🍻🍺
Granted you need to show everyone that you are using the conveyor, but in this case it looks like a lot more handling. Back the trailer in and pitch!
I'm wondering if the trailer is too wide to back in. If Dan can't drive the tractor in and dump, the trailer is probably too wide as well.
He sid say its to wide
Should have used the new little trailer it is not as wide and could got right back up to stack again only touch wood twice.
Trailer doesn't fit into the shed unfortunately.
It of been easier if one stayed at trailer and handed pieces off the the other like a 2 person bucket brigade
Yeah that would've probably worked good...I didn't think of that
@@Back40Firewood lol. We always see it after the fact on stuff
It has been a while since I have watched this channel... But wedgie that young lady has is driving me insane. How the heck can she stand that.
lol...well that is actually how the shorts/leggings are made. That is the latest fashion/style.

@@Back40Firewood Lol... My wife just told me. I am officially old.
Work smarter not harder
A lovely little 🍑 of a video.
I see what you did there !!
Well played !!
G shorts. Lol
Very poor planning. Not how I would have done it. He's touching the wood too many times and unnecessarily so. Not reaping maximum efficiency the equipment enables.
Is that really easier though? Instead of touching the wood twice; once loading the trailer and then once bombing it into the shed… you’ve now touched it once to load, spent the time and effort setting the conveyor up, then touched it twice to load it onto the conveyor then touched it a third time to smooth out the pile the conveyor dumped it into. It’s a smart use of a new toy absolutely, but making it easier? I wouldn’t think so.
We can't back the trailer into the shed, it doesn't fit....so hand bombing those pieces that distance and then up on top of the pile isn't as easy as it might seem...lol...after a few mins the pieces get heavier and heavier...haha, trust me we've done it the way you described every year up til now....this was the easiest way yet. Throwing wood 'down' from a pile into a trailer, and then setting it 'down' onto a conveyor is much different from having to throw pieces 'up' onto a pile.
YOU SHOULD HAVE BACKED WOOD SPLITTER UP TO SHED AND THEN SPLIT WOOD AND PUT IN SHED IN ONE STEP. NATURE WILL DO THE REST. HAKE AN ASSEMBLY LINE FROM LOGS TO SPLITTER TO SHED. ONLY HAVE TO HANDLE WOOD AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE GET A LAZY PERSON DESIGN YOUR.HH SYSTEM. WORK SMART NOT HARD
working smarter then harder it not laze byeing or makeing your wife and kid do lazy and wrong
Costs money to be lazy. Yes that is just plain lazy.
How many cords do you split each year.
I've never really kept track...I burn around 12 full cords just heating and try to stay a few years ahead...then also split for selling.
@Back40Firewood Gotcha Buddy. I know u and the wife split alot of wood. Hard work but it is so fun. We do about 120-130 cord a year for sale and it is definitely a full time Job. Lol. I figured you were doing about the same.
Hello Dan and Amanda, Working Smarter not Harder is not Being Lazy, 👏👏🪵👍🏼🇺🇸
Well Dan you forgot to mention that you were helped by the amazing Amanda ❤🪵👍😊
I never noticed Dan.
