Man that's some good looking wood you got there what kind is it
KiwiBro
Mill 'em, nails be damned.
I'm going to have to find me some of that E.salignaWhat kind of wood? Split. It's genetically similar to Fire Wood only heavier.
Me and my dad took out a grove around one of out fields last winter. We got around 60 cords out of it some of the rounds were over 7 ft across don't know what spices it was but the wood was really red
The bark looks similar to Sycamore, but the wood inside doesn't look like it. 60 cords? That be a lot!!!!!
Yeah made the ole back sore
That's some very red wood!
60 cords? ahh-h that's nothing! I got 12 just today!! beautiful fall day, crispy north wind inching in... temps mid 50's and sunny... very nice. I decided a day to cut some firewood... so this afternoon, that is just what I did. overfilled my wood hauler, and left 25 or so cut up chunks to add to my 'need to split' pile... opps, sorry... guess my scale guage is off a bit... I mean 12 cu ft!!
(sorry, j/k!) and all in about 30-40 mins or so... I had hauled it in other day...from this:
to this:
now this:
all kidding aside, that is one serious firewood project...
and 7' ft across wow! I think my biggest stuff today was 7" across... .... maybe 8" in the 'big' stuff!!! impressive wood gathering ops here on the AS never cease to continually amaze me, yours included! that really IS a lot of wood. how will u use so much wood, sell it? or store it for personal use?... what type of splitter do u ues? tractor powered or?...ps: by any chance, you got a pix or two of those 60 cords? I have never seen 60 cords before... doubt that much even at the firewood lots here in town...

Heree are a couple pics showing something around 80 cord:
Upthread I saed there were some 30 cord in dthat pile. I just measued it. 30' deep by 32' long ricks comes to 45!! cord. Call it 40 as there is a hole where the tree is groing and some of the first few ricks are a bit shorter.
two other piles, one split with about 15 cord and one unsplit that had 2o cord last time I measured but I have split some from that since.
There is a 4th pile that I am currently using off of with 3 or 4 cord left.
Some people think I aam crazy. All my neighbors know I am. I think I started cutting Black locust around 2008. Quit in either 2012 or 2013 as I didn't need any more. Cutting blow downs, and currently Clearcutting Willow grove for a farmer just for the exercise. Selling some Willow, mixing some in with the B.L. for the stove.
