Great video Chris and look forward to seeing the rest of the interview. We got a few ideas for our self’s after seeing how his shop is set up . Not sure we will ever get that big but we sure are trying .
Awesome video Chris, neat to see and hear from those in the industry on both sides. Jesse has an awesome operation. Thank you for taking us along and if you could, pass along a thank you to Jesse as well for showing his operation. Loggers work hard, not easy work at all as some may think it is. 👍🏻
A lot to learn in this shop. Clean floor, broom and shovel regularly used, can always tell a successful business when the work environments comes up to safety standards. My friend joined his family business, when he got to the factory his father gave him a broom for his first job and he worked in every job until he knew everything there was to know, he even drove deliveries and was away for days, then he finally got a desk job.
As someone from a logging family, I'm so glad that you mentioned all of this to everyone. It's hard to understand why wood goes up/down when someone might only want to burn it. Great video Chris!
Great content! Fascinating with the volume and automation this bundle business brings to the marketplace! Looking forward to more videos from Arndt. Thanks Chris!
We use those metal cages for our farm firewood. Here in Oz we call them stillages. They are stackable and ours have one side that you can open up like a door. Very convenient...split the firewood into them, fork them next to the house and open the door. Lots better than IBCs but lots more money too.
In Germany we use the heavy Toel‘s to store Potatos. Nice to see them First Time in your Videos because here are sooo many around us. You can find them everywhere on agricultural farms
He got lots wood there. Great firewood production going on there. If he had more workers he do really good. Awesome video to be able to see this. Thanks for sharing this. Take care.
Nice and informative about bundled wood never to old to learn thanks again he should appreciate you cause you gave him free advertising but that's what w do show people how stuff is made and what it takes to do it 18:33
FWIW Purchase a 2nd Rubbermaid cart. It'll cut her walking time in half. Also, swap out their plastic bearings with a "Marathon# 60602". One for each wheel. Cost under $2 each. She will thank for the ease of rolling and fewer steps. BTW, nice operation. Clean.
Kenny needs to come out of retirement and run the logging end of your operation in order to have full control of the raw materials needed for the next expansion of In the Woodyard! Erics bad knees might land him in charge of the bundle operation but will be just as crucial for the complete operation! Get to cutting!!🤠 #CarlsonBrosEnterprises
@@InTheWoodyard just an educated guess. Wholesale to big companies is often 50% of retail. My number also says total in sales. I bet 70% of that number is overhead and production costs.
Chris, I was wondering if you could send me a link to either one of your videos or one in which you featured another channel who built a jig to cut chunk firewood. Bert made one on your channel for an electric chainsaw. It worked great, but it was a one off. A guy you featured on your channel briefly actually took that design, and made a welded up jig that you could buy from him for around $600. Does this ring a bell? If so, could you send me anything on it because I need one. I am going to be selling smoking wood (pecan, hickory, mesquite and others) and I could really use that in the production.
@@InTheWoodyard this one held your electric chainsaw in place while you lowered the log onto it to cut it. It seemed more for cutting limb wood etc. it was actuated when the limb pushed the bar… does that help?
@@michaelgirouard1588 yes, he made his own version of it! It was on a video where he had logs for sale that I could not get in time for his move from last fall.
That is because ALL deciduous trees ARE hardwoods. Soft is just a name/word used to describe a type of maple that is used to separate (hard/sugar/rock) maple from (red/silver) maple. Another example is aspen/poplar or basswood or cottonwood or box elder...all "soft" HARDWOODS. ALL coniferous/evergreen trees are classified as soft woods.
@@InTheWoodyard maple is not hardwood. It's good burning wood but you can't count rings on soft wood like pear, maple ect. If there's no grain they are soft wood
