Began splitting and stacking of my pile of rounds that have been waiting to be done today.
Around 6-8 cords.
I cut my last round almost a month ago. Been piddling around organizing things on my firewood piles. Finally finished emptying this bin yesterday. That filled the woodshed and 2/3 of the usual stock on the back porch (total between the two s 5-6 cords normally). Last year I burned all winter out of that bin plus removed and restacked elsewhere another winters worth.
Didn't make much progress on the splitting today. Look close and you can see my '?progress? peeking from back of the tree by the fence. Fiskars am great!!. Temp 90 at noon and going up. I quite at noon .
That project of manual splitting should keep me occupied for awhile. I don't plan on working hard at it, just enough to keep some semblance of 'condition' going through the fall. The Hydraulic splitter will come out occasionally to work up the tough splitting stuff (knots, crooks, etc) then the really bad stuff will get a visit from Mr. 361.
