Yessir. Look at load 6 and you can see a small pickup crane. I use that and a set of log tongs and a short 3 ft chain. It does extremely well, considering it was only 100 bucks when I bought mine.

Cool! I saw that but it didn't register as to what it was.

Yeah, without that, these pieces would be significantly smaller. Lol I'm a big dude, but I'm not looking to blow a gasket.

That your pup in your avatar?

This is the last of my scores for a bit. There's still a half dozen piles and another dead, probably half rotten locut tree, but that's all going to have to wait. I got 8 loads hauled out of there and 2 of those trips had a trailer load too.

I know this.........I have plenty of splitting to do now. I just about had my "need to split" pile cleaned up and now half my yard has been overrun. Lol

Don't blame you after all that. Can you post a picture of the candy when you get time? Love to see that grand total all together.
Thanks.

"Candy" Lol

Yep. I'll take one tomorrow. I think I even have a picture of what was there before I hauled these loads in.

Here ya go. I don't have any pictures of how far it was down.

I'm envious of all that wood. Looks like you are well prepared for a couple years.

I feel grateful to have the access to what I've been able to haul in the last week. I'm grateful for all the firewood I'm able to get actually.

Should be close to 4 years worth here, total. Counting what I just hauled in.

 

[I saw a lot]

I had a solid 3 years here at the house, but not at the moment. Should have enough for this year plus I have enough locust (split 2017-2018) for another solid year but saving that for the real cold weather.
Need to start working harder as most wood that's getting split now is being sold by best friend.

Got some more beech

The lengths of the bucked rounds seem awfully short. Just MHO. Any reason for all those short logs?

Think I like the new wood hauler.

Nice haul !!

Split that yesterday afternoon. Figured stack it on the trailer and see how it would handle some weight.

Um, I think I like your wood hauler too! I would love a bigger, lower trailer. I dig it!

I really feel I should respond here. It's quite different in central USA. I could never sell those short logs except to potbelly stove owners. A few really small fireplace insert customers will accept them. But, the standard is 16" to 18" logs and quite a few fireplace owners want them cut longer than that.

I had one customer take all the logs under 12" in length that were in my truck's bed and throw them back into the truck before I could deliver them. Then he asked for a 25% discount before I could deliver the rest. Needless to say, I no longer deliver to him anymore, but it did happen.

Yes thanks for the reply it’s good too hear all the differences from country too country
And too be honest it would be quicker if I could cut longer firewood

below is my fireplace insert stove it’ll take a 12” log but iam geared up too cut
8” - 10” for the customers and log nets
