Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[MustangMike]

Sacrilege!!! I covered my cabin through my umbrella policy and it hardly cost anything! (Also added the ATV, again, very cheap).

I heat my house with Natural Gas, but the hunting cabin needs a wood stove!!!

Mine is covered under my homeowners as well. My sauna building isn’t covered though because of old stove and single wall pipe. I could install double wall pipe and request inspection of the stove to be covered but I could build half of a new sauna for what the new chimney would cost.

I had cut quite a bit of extra wood on Saturday so it only took me about 20 cuts to fill the box with a tossed load.

Pissy rain day here. Haven't been off the porch. Weather cutie put the curse on tomorrow too.

Been cooking on the woodstove 3 days straight. Pork loin was just about perfect at the 6 hour mark.

Got 30’ of the trunk drug out and bucked tonight. Have the 15’ feet to the rootball to get tomorrow. Wayne said tonight “All this big stuff is going to your house, I ain’t messing with it.”

I dont blame him. I dont care for dealing with the huge stuff either. I got a hell of a lot of wood out of that 40" oak the other year but it taught me I can get alot more done in less time if the woods smaller.

I think its the spruce in the line you're smelling .
Glad they're getting close to you.
We are very fortunate here that our electric company(local company) is literally just over a mile from the house. They do a lot of preventative maintenance and it really helps.
Hope you get your back on soon, not much helps prepare for this kind of storm.

Smells like no fuel bills for another 1-2 years.

I am very glad I dropped the money on the 9010. It’s a blessing with wood this size and after 6-7 tanks of fuel it’s turning into a beast.

I brought home 2 weeks of no heat bills today as well!

36” TsuMura Lite, .063, chisel, full skip. Gonna check with Nate to see if you can get a full skip semi chisel, between falling and dragging some of the wood is packed with dirt.

I was down to 2 of the small bottles of oil to mix a gallon of premix. Did a little scrounging in the garage and found all of this! Since I’m running them in cheap/free saws I don’t really care what brand I use.

Seems like it was a good day to work on no heating Bill's. That hickory top in the background and what's left standing are on the agenda for tomorrow.

Don’t need any more bad habits (that means expensive.)
