Getting ready to run another load of logs. Meanwhile a customer in the background loads his truck and keeps their distance using the self serve option :)

Its a 2014 model, Hakki Pilki Easy 37. Its one of their smaller units but it fully hydraulic with joystick controls for cutting and blade adjustment. Spittler ram is automatic upon the chain bar returning to the up position. Pretty quick, about 6 sec or less to go out and come back. Can take up to a 15-16" log. With the wife and I, we can do about a cord an hour. If it was good straight large logs, probably could do it in 45 min or a bit less. If we had a 3 rd person loading the deck, I could easily do a cord every 30 minutes. I picked it up used in Dec 2019. It only had one owner who put about 100 cord through it.

I think if I can double this, I’ll be set for a long while.

Yes you will.

If I had a log pile like that, it'd be full of snakes and spiders. I remember you liked this guy.

We dont have snakes ... in Ireland

What keeps the rodents in check?

My surname is Irish, but even my grandparents didn’t know when our ancestors came to America. So I really don’t know much about what goes on in Ireland. Same with my wife, on all of this.

After the not so bad winds a few days ago, I decided that the trails would get checked, not a thing down on the trails I checked.

I went back to this Maple (I'm thinking Sugar) that the top was blown out of last year, about seven rounds weren't worth a ****. I split everything that was good and then stacked it with some Ash, I have some smaller rounds of Ash in the woods that I'll finish off the stack with.
