A few weeks back I posted splitter pics of my work in progress.

Here's 6 cords ready to go. About half is ready for this season with the rest of the freshly cut wood in reserve for next year (this is the cabin-I burn wood only on weekends so more than enough). The hot weather over the past three weeks is sure helping the drying too.

Wife and little guy were big help. Older boys helped a little bit too.

I've got about another 5 cords in rounds and another 5 cords of dead/dying aspen standing on the property. Going to split the rounds this fall, drop the dead ones this winter, and split the rest in the spring. Then I'll have plenty of firewood for a long time and no more dead branches to look at. :)

I'm far from perfect but got a lot of practice in my youth.

At our hunting shack we had a MAJOR A-hole neighbor. Among other things, our woodpile would get knocked over EVERY year. Guess who got to restack it....

I finally cut a deal with my dad and the other guys that I would do all of the cutting and splitting but wouldnt be responsible for any stacking/restacking.

Man, that's some beef there! You throw them chunks up there? Gotta be some close to 200 lbers in that stack.

some (okay 2 that fell off) the tractor did the rest

Had plenty of weight left, barley hitting the helper springs. Another 1,000 lbs?

better to go back a second time than break something the first time. i think that it was solidly on the helpers ()the ball hitch was a good 5" lower loaded than when empty
