4 Days in the Woodyard - Day #1 Splitting, Noodling and WST gets mugged!!!! 

Hi Mrs. Tears. Strange, that’s my wife’s name also? What are the odds?? I appreciate you watching and taking a guess at the amount of pieces. Hope you stop back again. WST

Hi Larry! I cannot believe I missed this comment. My apologies for not replying sooner. I am glad I could energize you to get out and slay the wood pile……. a month ago 🤣 Thanks for watching and supporting the channel. We appreciate you! WST

Greetings, Erik. I appreciate you stopping by and enjoying the channel. Take care and hope to see you again. WST

Finally!!! Someone tells the truth 🤣 Hope you and the wife are doing well. Always appreciate you watching.

Hi Harry P! It was a Premium Day, no doubt. Appreciate the support and for watching!

Hey Cherry 🍒 Man! I appreciate you watching. The support team was great, I guess. A lot of standing around and watching 🤣 Take care my friend.

Hi LTD! Thank you for watching! It is a great setup for me for sure. Merry Christmas to you and your family! WST

LOL! You snuck that one in there

@@WSTMike Bahahhah

Hi Larry and Robin! If I can work smarter and not as hard, I will. That being said, I think there is room for improvement on my end. Thanks for watching my friends!

Hey Stan! When in doubt, Stan always comes through. Thanks for watching and poking. Take care my friend.

Logger Al!! Thank you very much for the comment and explanation. The rick sounds like a sliding scale. You just don’t know what you are going to get. I haven’t had this much fun in the woodyard in awhile. I was really looking forward to 4 days. Thanks for watching and commenting! WST

Hello MJM! I agree that limb wood can be premium. My issue is filling my woodshed with it and then having to take time to load into the boiler. I use the limb wood for campfires etc. Anything I cut does not go to waste, at all. The Japa 365 is a nice machine and perfect for processing that. I really appreciate the well thought out comment. Well said. Hope to see you again in the comments soon. WST

@@WSTMike is it possible to start a 1 cord stash of limb wood, letting it take the neccessary time to season, especially with a gasification system and burning them without splitting?

@@mjmtreeservicemaintenance2940 very possible. I’m working on more racks in the spring. A test home for limb wood if you will.

Hi Brian, I appreciate you watching. I don’t script my videos. I just say what comes to mind. I was thinking about the Rick and decided to ask the question. It seems to have varying dimensions and was confirmed by the viewers. You intellect must friend is never in question. I’ve watched your videos and you are highly competent and well spoken. Respect. I like the word premium because it is overused and can be overrated. I think I proved that 🤣 Glad you enjoyed the video. Just being myself. Take care my friend.

@@WSTMike I am looking forward to part 2....

Hello Timber Visions! Welcome! There is a lot of ways to do it. I’m hoping to do this for a long time, so noodling is my go to. Plus, I love running a saw! Thank you very much for watching. Really appreciate it. WST

Hello MSOH!!! I sure as heck wish I knew what that whole premier thing meant. I’ll have to do some research. I’m learning as I go here. I appreciate you bringing that up. I’ll just say this on the rounds…. It’s between 79 and 300 pieces 🤣 I really appreciate you watching!

Gringo Pines! Hello brother. I see you caught the second vid and how many pieces were produced. That being said, the amount of Romain was well beyond 2 buckets. If I was doing this around Easter, I would be rolling in $$$. Thanks for watching brother!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Well said. Nothing more could be said. You are all smart to pick up what I’m floating out there. Love it!

Hi Ben! Noodling is a easier way of handling big rounds, but it is tough on a saw and chain. I don’t like to make a habit of it, but when that’s what you get, you find a way. Thanks for watching my friend.

Hi Kevin! I love words. When I hear the word rick it cracks me up a bit. Just want to have some fun with it in this video. I agree with you. Everything is regional in what they call things. Thanks for watching! WST

After 4 days in the woodyard, I’m getting some therapy. I’ve found myself talking to popsicle sticks, imagining shenanigans and wondering what y’all are doing behind my back. That being said, you guys have made my time in the woodyard fun. Thank you! Good call on the wood. We will see.

Hey Daniel, really sorry to hear about the carpel tunnel. That not a good thing if you are a woodhound. Hope you continue to heal. Good guess on the 5 rounds. You will see on Saturday. Take care my friend.

@@WSTMike : firewood has delayed this issue for 5 years.. So not bad for a flair up now.. Just got to ware braces at night for now and see hiw it goes..

Hi Richard! Hope all is well. There is a lot of piece in those rounds no doubt. Shifty, you know he wants to….. Thanks for watching my friend.

Ooooh, you’re into the 4 days in the Woodyard series. I do burn the limb wood early on and later toward the end of the season. Shifty and Rod were there, that’s it.

You are exactly right. I just wanted to know the origins of a Rick. I guess it doesn’t matter, was just having some fun with the word.

@@WSTMike Ya, I get that, was explaining for the southerners in case they wanted to know. Keep up the great content!

@@timbervisions I forgot about explaining that to the southerners! 🤣 Appreciate the fact you like the content. That means a lot!

Hey Todd! The first two days have been solid. The third day….. well. Good call on the wood pieces. We will see. Take care brother and thanks for watching.

Hi George, not going to disagree. Wood is wood, but some don’t thing the same. I burn it one way or another. Thanks for watching! WST

Hi Larry! Thank you for your comment on the Rick’s. Not trying to make this a Mason/Dixon kind of thing, but that is something I’ve always wondered. Sounds like the Rick’s can be cheaters on the length of the wood. Good for Ohio standing up to them!! Take care my friend and thanks for watching. WST

Hi Kenny, I appreciate the fact you like the content. Just trying to make mundane woodyard work fun. Oh, yea, I found a nail the other day. I buried the chain in the backyard and said a prayer. Thanks for watching. Hope to see you again. WST

Well said, JD. It’s what you know. I just like having fun with words and that has been toward the top of the list for awhile. Sounds like the Rick’s don’t have a stable dimension from the other comments I’ve read. Good guess on the 5 rounds. We will see. Appreciate you commenting and watching. WST

@@WSTMike I generally cut 100face cord a year and that includes the falling and limb out then split and deliver

@@jdspencer4297 JD, that is impressive! There are a lot of guys out there that have a ton of experience. That’s a good amount of wood. Beats the 50 face cord I do a year. Can I ask what you have for a splitter? Thanks again for watching and commenting. WST

@@WSTMike just a 35 ton husky the old slow one. The thing is that yall get almost double for a face cord than we get here The price of a face cord is at best 80 delivered and stacked

@@jdspencer4297 That’s about the price here in Michigan. Where are you located?

I noticed the same. You can’t change slow, even in editing. This splitter is going to get built right. Stay tuned.

You did a great job restoring it

@@scottlmartin4429 I appreciate that, Scott. I’ll show some pics of it before I restored it in Saturday’s video. Thanks again for watching. WST

Hi David! I can run a saw right or left. It is not a camera flip or trick. I only do it when I’m noodling for the most part. I just let the chain self feed and hold on. Not sure if that is right or wrong, just the way I’ve always done it. Thanks for watching my friend!

@@WSTMike no In the video it actually looks like a left-handed chainsaw that’s why I was asking sorry I’ve been busy today before I get back to you it looks like the sprocket and bar is on the left-hand side instead of the right please let me know I appreciate it

@@dmalloy96 It’s a normal right handed saw.

@@WSTMike thanks

@@dmalloy96 his phone camera is flipped. Buckin Billyray is backwards in the one part also

I see you caught onto what I was floating out there!

Premium if you want to call it is nice split AND seasoned ready to burn not split right into a truck and delivered and screw someone over to get yours early

@@larryhronesz5693 I hear you loud and clear brother! 🤣🤣

Hi Ralph!! Hope all is well. Glad you enjoyed the video. I’m really enjoying my time in the woodyard. We will see what all I get done. Thanks for watching!
