the 'look' is important!
kinda like the Powerful Things on Modern Marvels nite before. one blip was Tugboats. 68' feet long and 5,000 hp!!!
needless to say, they were quite impressive!!! FOSS boats
5,000 hp! ~
one thing u can be sure of in any event... it would not be me!!!Not sure if you would have your best friend or your worst enemy holding the bar end of the saw
just below the snow line where i am standing... looking up
hi H-R are your wheelbarrows 2 wheeled?
1 or 2, you do seem to move a lot of firewood...
thot so, too! i liked seeing it. sorta makes me think i may have seen such as a kid when my Dad would take me and my brother with him into a hardware store. i remember the leather goods sections... fill the entire area up with those awesome aromas of new, fresh oiled leather... this, thats and whatevers, too...
no doubt at least some here can also remember those days
i have some 20" more than 20 years aged. oak. still has lots BTUs in it
me, too. hot red coals. i oft say to myself when closing up fire in fireplace for the evening... 'hmm, nice cooking coals!'
i heard the word used this evening... talking about different groups, people connected and communities. online and in the real world, too...
the AS may be a forum, but it also has the flair of being a community, as well...
thanks for sharing Bf~ swell photo essay...
no doubt about it, u seem to be a chip off the old block!
anybody can buy a tool, and i am not belittling that!
but to put together the craftsmanship to make a tool, one with pride and attention to detail... well crafted in its design and function... that is always
sounds like it! got a couple of wedges... steel, plastic. don't use them too often - for the same reason!
no need to bring in firewood tonite, currently 63f!Tonight I was about to settle in at 10, then I got an idea to run out and add more wood to the fire and get three wheelbarrow loads of wood for the house lol.
I don't know how many logs I put on, but I know the pile is at least 10' wide, 5' deep and 5' high.
Heard of face cords, federal cords, half cords and full cords, this is a bonfire cord
I came back in the house at 12am. Oh well, I got a lot done today, and the temps are dropping from here on out. It's actually 39 here right now, that fire really warmed things up
.

This was this morning, and then I added a few more sticks during the day.

we can't do things like that down in my county. such burns are Controlled Burns. have to call it in in the morning, location, name, #, etc. and be out by dark. and then call and cancel the burn by confirming that it is done and out. they don't take too kindly to irresponsible burning and setting the pasture(s) on fire!!!
smaller ones are an exception, though...
i have several i would have to call in. and one i would not. my big one would make yours look like a camp fire...
(that's why i have not lit it off!. lol) besides, i like the big piles....
well, u get the idea
Must be a regional thing - around these parts that would be called an "OWB cord".Heard of face cords, federal cords, half cords and full cords, this is a bonfire cord
Now that's a knife. Nice job .
