This is pretty much the one I have except mine is green. It works great for moving bug rounds and for hauling firewood to and into the house. Instead of using totes, I use an old 30 gallon plastic trash can that I have an adjustable strap tied around and to the cart. The trash can holds about 4...

See, I told y'all, where your at is the NEW North Pole! I remember back in 1987 I ended up in such a blizzard and really had to ummm go! I was on a little 2 lane highway, 3 in the morning, in Wisconsin of all places, and trying my dangdest to keep my car (a '74 Cuda) on the road going around...

Usually we have our coldest month in January, maybe a little snow but not too bad. I think the most we hard last year in one snowfall was something like 6 inches. and maybe a total of a foot if it all stayed on the ground. It's been in the 40's n low 50's here most of the last 5 days. Heck, my...

:laugh: See how y'all are! Thanks fer sharing! :dizzy:

They say the Almanac is 80% accurate. But I'm hoping it's wrong this year. N I know how generous all y'all up north are, n us southerners appreciate it, but it would be greatly appreciated if you WOULDN'T share the snow and cold this year (or any other year)

I never have to go hunting. When my freezer is low, all I need do is step out the door and decide which one I want next. I usually wait for one to make the mistake of eating my roses and then shoot it though. Justifiable venicide! :D My last kill the deer was no more than 20 feet away from me...

I have no idea on both questions since I had never stacked like that before. Ask me in about 2 more years when I start to use them. Anyway, to keep this on topic, I just break the rounds into quarters in order to load them. If they're still to heavy I'll break em further. BUT, I do like...

I picked up the pp5020 about a year ago and have never had any problems with it. I got mine off Amazon for $175. While I love it, I love my Stihl ms361 even more! I do still use the 5020, 4620, and the 4218 for the various aspects of tree cutting. Now I need an itty bitty one that isn't too...

I surely can't argue with y'all there. Under those circumstances I'd likely noodle the whole works! I might try splitting at least one round with the x27 just to say I did though! :eek: You never know what you can do till you at least try!

Nope, I just wanted to see if I could split those rounds while still in the 4 foot length. It took something like 17 whacks to crack it, but once cracked it was a piece of cake. Afterwards I cut them into 16 inch sections and split them further. Most of that oak went to build one of my holz...

I should probably add, I used one of those two wheeled dollies for moving furniture n stuff to move the rounds into place.

This is a 4 foot round of oak about 18 to 24 inches across (I forget which) n for poops n giggles I used the x27 on it. Those rounds in the lower right hand corner were my steps to get up high enough to whack the snot out of that round! :eek:

I broke my back in a motorcycle wreck a few years back and now have enough hardware in it to open a small hardware store. While it has slowed me a bit, I still split the rounds with my x27. So sometimes it takes more than a few whacks to crack it, but I get er done. :chop:If I do need to noodle...

I use the x27 almost exclusively for splitting wood. The other is a True Temper splitting axe as backup. For the smaller rounds, I use the tire. Just load it until it can't take any more and whack away. Think Whack-A-Mole. I don't have the tire fastened to anything, but I usually place it over...

I only noodle the difficult pieces like a crotch or something that is heavily knotted. Usually it's the black birch crotches n knots I have trouble with and occasionally oak. Otherwise for large rounds, I'll use my splitting axe to bring them down to more manageable pieces.

Y'all are WOOD WHORES! N I'm still a Wood Nymph! One can never have or get enough wood! (or beer) :givebeer: :D I have 14+ cord cut split n stacked with 10 of those cord being stacked in the yard. Some people have those little gnomes n other things decorating their yard. Me, I have my wood...

Oh, you already have FAD, that's a given. It kind of comes with the territory already having CAD. But, be patient, in time you'll be a fire wood whore-der. I think there is a support group for that around here someplace! :chop: :D

You might be a wood whore-der if you fill the barn & the shed with firewood to the roof But only if you still have piles outside (under some kind of cover) Until then, your just a hobbyist! :D :laugh:

I have the Condor Magnetic Thermometer and it is within 5 degrees of my Infra Red Thermometer. I just checked. It's also placed on the center of the top of the stove. This is my second year of using the Condor and I trust it. Currently I'm running the Englander NC-13 and have only used the...

So that's why Spidey's place is the New North Pole! :D
