Firewood thread!!! Let's see what you got!!!!

[Wolverine]

Separated all the honey locust from the chestnut oak. Ended up being about 2.5 cords.





Also swept my chimney for the first time in 3 seasons. 8x11x4” box.


1/2 of the contents was wet ash. We just had some major rains so somehow water got in the bottom.

Free birch . Very little rot on the one big stem.
Stuff is heavy as it was still live. Owners took the branches.
Used 261 and 365

Time to start stacking like @Wolverine

Ballpark 2 cords / 7 cubes - spring harvest, have to find a nice place and let dry for about 5 years.

Jason is that pure wood creosote/soot?

Awaits me too this fall, get that tall latter and hope we don't fall.

When I removed the bottom clean-out cap from my flue, there was a bunch of wet [fly] ash. I dumped that in the box first. I'd say that it was about 1/3rd of what you see. We had just had tremendous rains and I do have a cap at the top, so not sure how it got so wet. But the rest was 100% from burning wood, and that was 3 seasons worth. Luckily I can sweep from my roof.

I'm getting there although at about the speed of an arthritic snail .This is around 2.5 cords of wind blown and standing dead ash .When you only work on the supply every few days an hour or two at a time it takes a long time .

Good looking mess of firewood right there!

 

[Duce]

Had other projects to do, so just starting.

 

[Inlineforagoodtime]

Got it split, hickory and red oak, now for the stacking. Been to hot for my liking I might let it sit for a while.

 

[Inlineforagoodtime]

Got some hickory stacked up yesterday. Drank a gallon of water while i did it. Finished up and went into the a.c. At least another load this size and probably 1.5 loads of red oak.

I got lucky was moving a pallet and grabbed a wasp nest. Dropped the pallet and ran. Came back with chemical and hosed em down.

I feel ya...same here. Never seen it this hot in all my life!

Progress is rather slow ...

Not making is as nice of a stack as @Wolverine has going.

7 years is good enough for my dryness level, will be this winter's stash.

I’m about 5-6 years ahead right now(w/ about 22-23 cord), unless we have very mild winters which is totally possible. Stacking isn’t my favorite part by a long shot. Some of the guys over on FHC put mine to shame!

I had some storm damaged trees up at my cabin that I cut up with my XS 550xpg.

I prefer fall for cutting firewood. Winter is fine if snow is not 1-1/2 feet deep and sub-zero temps.

 

[bradb123]

I normally don't cut firewood in the summer but seeing how I had gas leftover from my cabin I figured I'd get a trailer load this morning. I used my newest scarr 572XP and my XS 572xpg. I also got a chance to try out my new tsumara premium light bar.

I prefer doing just about anything outside when temps are 50 or less. I also like to hunt deer when it gets cooler out. I have the best luck finding wood when its hot as blazes out.


Moved the last of the hickory, probably another two loads of red oak.

Sweet trailer. It'd take me a good while to fill it up since I'm a one man show.

 

[Timjus]
