Post pictures of your woodpile/splitting area

I decided I'm going to go get it Thursday, busy today and dr's tomorrow. Worse case I'll burn it during the day. Never can have to much wood!

Hey, free wood is good wood. If it is Ash, you'll love how easy it splits.

Wow, that's even closer. Bullfrog Rd. is about 6 miles away from me. Was that recently? I don't remember reading about that in the local papers.

The death didn't happen at the place I was helping at. Just googled it, it was out near quarryville. The girl scout camp wanted all the dead standing ash trees down that were near walking paths or assembly areas. I was there a few times then they decided they were Gona have a tree company come in and do all the girl scout camps around the area. The guy I was cutting with knows the person in charge of the camp we were at and was told they couldn't get people to clear the trees at other camps hence call in the tree company. But we were at 35 trees at that spot with more needing to come down. Once the camps opened for the summer we weren't allowed to cut any more do to the kids being around.

Did this on the weekend. Hard to tell from the angle but the split pile is 25ft long, 12ft across (the base) and 4.5ft tall. Still got some rounds to split. 1/2 yellow Birch 1/2 maple.

Once it's all stacked I have a equal amount of Aspen and more maple to bring up.

figured since I went off topic a bit I'd post some pics to make up for it. That cheap maul has an edge on it by a guy that's been sharpening for near 50years goes threw wood like butter.

Nice looking pile! Did you do that all by hand or with a hydraulic splitter?

I like your boxed wood covering idea, short and simple is in my wheelhouse. I'm thinking about doing some large holzhausen piles for a change, but I still want a way to cover it from the snow and ice in the winter. Not really concerned as much in the warmer months for open stacks.

Hydraulic splitter, no way I am splitting that much by hand maybe 15-20 years ago when I was a teenager lol

Hello everyone. New here . Background I run a lawn service. Fall income is trees and firewood . I am a small operation as far as wood goes 3 maybe 4 months a year max. I typically split around 25 cords of firewood to sale. I have your typical equipment nothing really to fancy

Welcome to AS. The trees won't see you coming in that vehicle.

it's been a tuff truck. I have no problem or worries about using it in the woods. And thanks

Nothing like a Hernia to stop the woodpile from growing!

Man your splitting all those rounds on your own? Thats just back breaking work. It helps its a vertical splitter but the work sucks either way. I have a horizontal and every year of gathering, cutting, splitting, stacking makes me say to myself "i got to have this s$@t delivered" lol

 

[RDA Lawns]

Certainly hard work. But I don't mind it. Im cutting for the money not for my own use. Lol The bigger the logs the more wood I get faster.lol

Well, I'm finally back at it after a year off wood cutting.
Brought this home last week.

Worked on it today. I'm not the man I used to be. Actually, come to think of it, I never was the man I used to be...lol

Had a little time today to get the area straighten up a bit. Still plenty of wood to split and brush to chip. And even some nice logs to cut into lumber.

Now I know im in the wrong thread with this but "YOU SUCK" with that area and a mill no less and a tractor with the grapple! Hands down you win the boy with the most toys!

Finally decided to work smarter, not harder...Why did this idea take so long?

 

[Rope burnt]

Some oak cut and stacked

Do this with either my P/U or use my tractor bucket. Didn't stop the hernia this yr though.

Brilliant! I have all those same “pieces” and never put the 3 together.
