Withe the Easyonmade 22-28 splitter and box wedge it's easy to process big rounds. In this video I try to use some really big logs that have been passed over previously.
As always a pleasure to see you producing some great firewood. A video I always look forward to. We try not to waste any timber that we sell through our farm shop. Looking forward to seeing more. Regards to the family from across the pond
Dick, I appreciate anyone near my age that is still cutting firewood. You always put up useful videos. I used to be able to handle big stuff like that but now I have to leave them in the woods. If I had a log lift, I might try it and I would need a tractor. So basically, I just leave them alone. If it is white oak, it will be good, red oak doesn't last as long on the ground.
Good morning Dick, unfortunately those logs were too far gone but you did manage to find some to make another tote of some nice wood. Now to dispose of the rotten stuff. Ughh. We can’t always win. Cheers Woody !!!
With the 572s teeth worn down, it still cuts like a dream. The new 562 mark ll is getting some nice reviews so far. Yes sir, just like that, you are doing amazing.
Im jealous of all your equipment. I just bought a 2019 Ford F150 XL 4x4. I have 3 chainsaws. MS171 , MS250 & MS261 . I do not have a splitter, trailer , skid steer , tractor. Im 64 years old with Asthma and underweight. Im giving it my best shot.
hi there well i was feeling a bit old today and it got me thinking i havent seen a show from you in a while ,I checked i was still subed , but havent been coming up . good show best to all john
Ha! Feeling old and thought of me? I understand John lol. Life has been very busy on many fronts, but I plan to be up and running starting this week. Thanks for the concern!
Good video Dick it is so much easier now days all I used was a mall and a axe o by the way how is the saw mill coming along I may have missed the video? Anyway keep moving my friend
Hi Frank. This Eastonmade splitter is the only reason I can continue to produce firewood. It really eliminates most of the physical work. The sawmill is finally together. I’m having some problems with getting the blade to track right. Hopefully I’ll have a video in the next couple weeks.
I tried cutting green oak 40” dia, ripped it in quarter pieces and could hardly pick them up by hand. I’m pushing 60 and went through two tanks of gas in my chain saw. Didn’t even get a 1/3 cord. Didn’t go back. You need equipment that I don’t have for that 😱
@@oldguyfirewood 👍 I drove almost a 1/2 hour with my trailer to get this “free” wood. lol. It was an answer to a marketplace ad. No tractors or splitters. Just me, a chainsaw and a dump trailer. Live and learn :)
