Simple Way to Forward Firewood to Firewood Splitter

Рет қаралды 11,243

Күн бұрын

Forwarding firewood rounds with my 1997 F250 7.3 Diesel to my homemade firewood splitter. I cut some Douglas fir into rounds. Now I am taking them to split them on the the wood splitter. I will split them directly into my dump trailer. This method minimizes handling firewood.

The real deal! I often tell people that getting firewood warms us MORE than twice. more like 6-8 times by the time we’re done!😀👍

@WilsonForestLands 10 ай бұрын

Yeah whoever said it warms you only twice, probably hasn’t handled much firewood. I have heard people say they have got to know each piece so well after handling it so many times, they give them names.

Hard worker...impressive for softwood. May be easier to haul big butts with a pulphook to throw on the truck. I use it often here in Maine...kind of an extra hand.

I send my daughter a " Dad joke" every week. May I use the scarecrow in the field joke ? You sir are outstanding in your field. Thank you. We are on level 1 alert right now and evacuated last summer. I really appreciate your fire danger awareness.

I am guessing you must be near the bedrock fire. It wasn’t my joke but you can use it. I figure dad jokes are fair game for anybody.

I'm glad you had a good time the last couple of weeks, I was going to ask what you've been doing but to take a speal from you, you read my mind. I do like your humor plus you also say some very interesting words not to mention your milling. Keep going, I"m trying to figure out where you are, some what fairly close to the ocean in Oregon or Washington, personally I'm on the north coast of Californina in Redwood country a hundred miles south of the Oregon border. Looking forward to your next video.

Ok so i watched you pick up all those rounds. Bending over for each one to put in truck. Next i watched you reaching for each one, taking off truck gate. May i suggest a more efficient system thats easier on your back? Dont cut rounds in field so you have to bend over for each one. You have to touch them multiple times then. Skid out longer logs and cut at the splitter and only touch once. Next they make simple cheap tools for picking up or moving rounds. Namely round tongs and a pickeroon. These 3 things will save your back and be way more efficient. Your back will thank you. If not now when it finally gets cranky on you w age. If your 18, you dont care about such. At your age you should. 😊
