    New Truck/Tree Puller

    The only big difference I've noticed is; cable won't take a hard jerk, like a good chain, and ropes and straps have big stretch factor... They each have their place....

    wood pile protection

    I believe Stevens made a smooth bore 22. If I ain't mistaken I remember seeing an actual "snake shot" ammo. Don't remember if it was for a 22 or not. I wonder what the difference would be, compared to "bird shot"? When I head to my pile to split, I sneak-up, and look real carefully. Last...

    Firewood Sellers Survey

    I'm small-time, last year I did around 25 full cords. Being that I cut tops and dead standing, a processor wouldn't be practicle for me.

    Buying trees for firewood

    If they ain't close to a house or powerlines. Tell him to pay you, a hundred bucks a tree. Drop, pile the brush and remove the tree!! Then sell it back to him!:hmm3grin2orange:

    is your wood pricing viable, with increased fuel cost's

    Actually I'm just east of the coal belt. Timber is king here. I don't buy coal , but I would buy by the ton, that makes sense. Of course by the ton. Feeling what? But, those places have scales at the distributor. And like I've stated TWICE NOW. That I'd have over a hundred miles...

    wood pile protection

    Well the weather is gettin warmer, the critters are out and about. Is there anything you fellas use around your wood area to keep the snakes out? I don't mind 'em, but I'd rather not grab ahold of a big ole cooperhead, if I can help it. I've bin using moth balls around mine, hoping If I...

    Western Maryland Firewood

    Marylands the "free state" Just take it. LOL you're close to WV also, just be aware that it's still illegal to transport wood in and out of state (wv) right now. EAB quarintine.. Just in case that was an option for you..... :msp_wink:

    is your wood pricing viable, with increased fuel cost's

    :D If you had to drive 27 miles one way to a weigh (not wiegh) station, would you do so?? That's the only POINT I'm making. it is not cost effective to do so, HERE.. I'd have 120 miles logged in, passing by the deliver point, 3 TIMES before I dropp it off!! I f you are buyin log length to stock...

    is your wood pricing viable, with increased fuel cost's

    Expand by selling by weight!! :laugh::laugh: Sorry we'll have to agree too, disagree... :msp_wink: Really, are you gonna have your truck weighed before loading, load it, re-weigh it? As far as my BLATANT statement of "If there's a will there's a way" reflecting on my business... That's...

    is your wood pricing viable, with increased fuel cost's

    I found this link and others, when I googled "selling firewood by weight" FIREWOOD SALES IN CONNECTICUT The truck has to be weighed right before loading. On STATIONARY certified scales... Just don't see that being a viable way to sell firewood. If you guys wanna go thru all that...

    is your wood pricing viable, with increased fuel cost's

    Alright, So do you guys check the moisture content of your wood before you sell? No wonder your prices gotta be so high. And no NOT EVERYONE that buys firewood from a logger pays for there wood by weight.. So what would stop them from throwing a hundred pounds of wood off after its bin...

    is your wood pricing viable, with increased fuel cost's

    Sorry fellas, I don't see how sellin firewoood by weight would work. I was talkin to some guys about this thread, and asked them about sellin by weight, and they just like I, laughed. I understand it's a legal means. But seems it would be real easy to lie about it. Are the customers...

    Nice! Gotta love the smell of hickory. how you like your 3-point splitter? A friend of mine has a farmtrac 320 and was just asking about one of those splitters. Are you on the northern or southern end of Va/WVa? Thanks!
