What do you call yourself???

[Hellbent]

Working on some of my "logging" equipment in the school shop I found quite a few guys burn wood and we had a great time sharing tips and tricks. I offered to help them on their stuff and we have built quite a comradere.

It got me to thinking... What do you call yourself as a person who chases and burns firewood?

Are we "woodies" "wooders" etc?

What do you call it when you are going after firewood or processing it?

Are you "wooding" "cuttin" etc?

This stuff just comes to me while I cut... Great philosophical questions and pondering and such in search of being as one with the wood. (oooohhhhhmmmmmm) Monk chant)

I'm a "Fire Wood Hack".
South-Eastern Indiana provides me some awfully good Hard-Woods to send thru my wood-stove and I'm lucky enough to keep a couple good chainsaws to do it.
Being a good "steward" to the land is part of it.

I like to call myself; Human Being.
When I'm cutting firewood, I call it; Cutting Firewood.

An addict, my wife would add a few words that are not suitable for the forum.

Sport cutter, sport splitter. I go out firewoodin and engage in those two sports. An excuse to go out in the woods. I dont hunt anymore, so this is it. Check out nature, I look at all the woods details, as much as possible, get a small gearhead fix, let the dogs run around (not when I am felling though). Sorta accidently accumulate nice stacks. I know I have taken trees that would have been nice sawlogs, which would have been logging or being a logger (kinda sorta) but no way to move them, so they turn into firewood.

At some point I would like to do some logging, and some in the tree work.

For whatever reason, we call 'em wood scrounges around here.

They use my given name when I'm holding a chainsaw. :chainsawguy:

Inspired by the TV commercial where a couple of woodchucks are throwing a guys firewood into a pond and he says "Stop chuckin' my wood". a friend that I work with a lot started calling whatever we were doing with wood "Chuckin' wood"

So we are "Wood Chuckers"

Looks like you've put some thought into this!!!

P.O.P. I like that one!

Since almost everything that I do involves chainsaws-carvings, milling lumber, log furniture, firewood stocking, repairing/porting saws (you gotta test em out)-I have been dubbed the Chainsawmaniac around my local area.

I go logging.
