Got my wood for next winter :-)

[Scoutillac]

I am pretty sure my neighbors hate me now. This was all cut by me with the help of a couple Wicked Worksaw's, a lot of determination, and breakfast bourbon. I work 12 hrs a day, have MS, and took no time off of work to do this. I did most all the splitting this weekend with a splitter, but had already split 4 cords with my trusty Fiskars X27.

so what does a truck load of logs like that cost you?

 

[Scoutillac]

lil over 1K, weighed in at 46k and should yield 11-12 cords. A cord of doug fir goes for 250 around here.

Outstanding! You are a tough guy, I got tuckered out looking at the pics!

 

[Marshy]

I whish I could brag about the same. I have about 12 cord of logs still waiting for me to get to. I've spent the last 3 weeks working 12.5 hour night shift 6 nights a week. I kept telling myself that I will go home and cut and split a little each day at sunrise before I come in the house. The reality of it is, you stick a man in a rocking chair after working a shift like that in a dark room feeding a 7 month old baby when you step foot in the house it becomes impossible to not be tired. Ususally the little guy is wide awake and wants to bounce around for a few hours before crashing and Momma only got ~5 hrs of sleep anyways so I end up lounging around with him untill the wife gets up with the other one at about 8... I cant remember when Ive had more than 6 hrs of sleep. To make matters worse, wifey thought it was a good time to remodel the bathroom. FML

I am pretty sure my neighbors hate me now...

If I looked out and saw something like this at my neighbor's house, I'd be walking up his drive with a saw in one hand and refreshment in another and a huge smile on my face! My one neighbor that used to cut with me gave it up after they figured out their kids stayed sick all winter as a result of burning, apparently due to the dust. Sucks for the little ones, but I sure do miss my cutting partner.

That's a great looking load you have there and even better looking pile of splits!

That's pretty much what my driveway looked like in October. I got half of it processed and moved by the end of November. Then the snow hit and stayed for 5 months. I just got the driveway cleared this past weekend. (Also with the help of my X27! )

Awesome job there! Nice looking Nova in the garage also!

That is awesome!
It would be great to have that much wood to buck up and split already at your house.
I would miss going in the woods, but having a load dropped at your house sure would save wear and tear and Diesel.

If we were neighbors, we would walk up together and ask the owner how log do you want them bucked to?

 

[Dirtboy]

Nice load of wood, and the Nova looks sweet also.

 

[Scoutillac]

It has been super tough for me to do with the work schedule, usually a 1/2 hr power nap then I forced myself out to cut and split. My major motivation is to get the driveway clear so I can get the Nova out and give it some exercise, then the neighbors will really hate me.

That's what happens when people live so close together. If you're lucky they will all move. Up here if you don't hear your neighbor running a saw, or a splitter, or sighting in his rifle, you go see if he's alright or not.

 

[cre10]

Wow

 

[GeeVee]

If I were the other neighbor, I'd be bringing my saws, refreshment, and hand truck, ready to move it or stack it. I Like the x25, but the 27 is on my list.

Dont wait, go get one ASAP. They are worth it.

My thoughts exactly.

It's got to be a great feeling to know next years wood is already done and it's only April!

 

[Milkweed Seed]
