Couple more feet to go.

Did some splitting today. Worked up some Hedge firewood for either sale, or consumption, depending on how things work out. This is my current setup when finishing up from scoring wood:

I can fit almost 1/4 cord on this little Kubota at a time, between the bucket, and 3pt cary-all. Plus, it's handy for hauling tools in and out of the woods. I still need to affix a hitch to the carry-all, so I can drag the splitter behind me, rather than pushing it like an airplane... But, for around the house it works pretty well, and it a darn sight faster/easier than a wheelbarrow.

My hats off to you---you're No Joke!

And he obviously has references too .

So you realized you needed help.
That is a beast of a tree, I would have passed and let you have it, I know when to stay on the porch lol. I can only imagine how many cords are in that thing, it's got to be 4-6 depending on the canopy size, have fun.
I started splitting the pile of red oak I got from my parents place yrs ago this week(two large trees), it was 26 trips with a single axle trailer that I hauled about 2k on per load. It was a lot of work dicing those trees up and getting the here, I think maybe that's why I didn't do anything with the pile for so long lol.
It's not a recent score, but I recently got back to working on it.
The pile can be seen behind the fire to the right, I'll be splitting and then noodling, then splitting more for quite some time. Hoping to have it done by the end of next month, probably sell about half of it, at least that's what I have as far as verbal commitments this far.

26 trips? Hoorey sheet!

I’m thinking this thing is probably about 4 cords or so.

Those big rounds add up quick when they are split up

No doubt! I’m noodling in about 10 pieces to be able to load them. Red oak is dense and heavy!

 

[chipper1]

Yeah, and I was being conservative on the weight per load as I'm sure many were quite a bit more and not many were less.
Here's one I just noodled and split today, bummer I'm loosing some to rot, but it's here so I'm good with that.

It was one of the bigger rounds left as I noodled the biggest ones so I could load them, the one that's in the bucket is on the far right bottom.
In the background you can see this yrs wood in the woodshed . Next yrs is in there on the other side .

I think it may be more.
Like Jeff said when you break them open the splits add up fast, but you know that .

The big side:

No idea how accurate that is.

Nice, what's the weight, 12k or something like that.

Calc says about 20k.

 

[RI Chevy]

Whew!!!
APP Shows!!!

 

[chipper1]

For 2.2 cord , I need a new calculator .

 

[Lightning Performance]

Your calculator must be whacked out.

That log should be near 12k-14k wet. I moved a 17ft 42" red oak log rotten outside and standing dead dry wood. Felt like 8-9k on the trailer. Heavy mfer.

Yep, I'm thinking he was talking about the whole tree, but we'll find out soon.

Whole trees of older pin oak around here go 22-25k easy. Tough on climbers with many large tops. No mistakes.

 

[CrystalRiver1]

Yes they do. I've gotten as many as 30-35 splits out of a round...decent size too.

 

[chipper1]

That's why I like the smaller ones, or those I can just drop lol.
