Anyone ever add up the cost in all your equipment to harvest and process wood and then talk about how we like the warm even free (NOT!) fuel.
A friend of mine constantly reminds me of the real cost of burning wood.
My list as follows:
Tractor 17K
Grapple to pick logs 3.5K
Splitter 2K about
chainsaws 3-4K might have went overboard there
Dump Trailer 6.5K
stove 500.00 could be up to 2K depending
Chimney 500-2K depending
Misc equipment in support of 500.00
Time investment ??????
Wow and I'm supposed to be saving money????
Then add in an OWB if you have one and add another 6-10K
WOW!!! Even if I burn the rest of my life there will never be a payback.
