I like splitting my boiler wood a little bigger than what most box wedge split sizes are...well all box wedges except the 5 way box wedge for the Eastonmade 37D.

Hello Shifty , It is good to hear someone other than me advocate splitting boiler wood, dries better, takes less fire in the boiler to get it to ignition temp, and makes for a cleaner burn, maybe a bit more handling, but not as hard of work to load the boiler, if you do not need a crane, this set up is an investment in yourself, not one for fuel or electric companies. working wood keeps you out of the saloons, bars and other seedy joints.

Dan you finally took my advice and used your trailer. You will find out by stacking the big stuff first is the majority of the wood leave the bundle wood behind and pick that out next. Then you can empty the scraps and do it over again. Saves time and your back and it helps on cleanup. Peace

Even at ~$30K, the 37D is a hell of a value for a small/midsize operation that "stages" their work with minimal personnel. Hard to justify a full blown $150K+ processor unless you have 3 people dedicated to keeping it fed, splits moved, etc, and supporting equipment to handle all that.

Nice job on the splits but still a little too small for me. It's a lot of extra handling and you have a nice long seasoning time the way you do it. have a homemade 36" stroke splitter with 4 way wedge. I cut my boiler wood to 32" long and split to about a 6" piece. That way my wife can load it into the boiler. My door is 24" square and firebox is 54" deep. I only put in enough splits for the heat demand we need at the time.

We had a big ol oil furnace that was changed over to wood 🪵 burning. We would use those big slabs and they burned way better than regular cut wood. The firewood lady suggested it and we never went back to regular cut. Just a few pieces would keep the house warm all day so we didn’t have to come home to a cold home

I never used to split my boiler wood, but then I got sick a few years ago, and my wife couldn’t lift the rounds to load the outside wood burner. I now split everything and have 2 months worth of emergency wood racked up near the furnace in case something happens to me. Be prepared and think ahead. Besides the split wood seasons and I don’t have as much creosote now.

With a little over 100 acres of ice storm damage smaller trees. I cut Our damaged trees into 4' lengths and threw into small bunches. That would pick up with JMS forwarding trailer and back up to the Aqua Term 345 boiler. Just slide the round wood into the 54" fire box. Easiest way I've done fiire wood. Everyone finds their preferred method. With mostly White Pine We'd get over 12 hr burn time on a full firebox load. About 4 days per trailer load.

I have been burning wood all my life cutting trees and splitting wood. I have yet to understand why people would split their wood so small when they are using it to heat their house. I understand smaller splits means hotter heat I also understand UN-split wood means longer burning time . Smaller splits means you will burn more wood meaning you need more wood to burn . I know how a wood stove works again been burning wood all my life .
@Dorchwoods
@Dorchwoods Год назад
That's a common myth. Smaller splits season quicker which is a huge bonus. 4 small splits packed tightly will burn just as long and probably more efficiently since it will be significantly more seasoned, than if it was 2 larger pieces of wood not split down. That's just my experience!
@danelionheart5881
@danelionheart5881 Год назад
@@Dorchwoods I have many times tested that out I have used 4 split pieces and timed the burn and from the same tree I used one log the same as the 4 split and it would burn a lot longer hours longer then the 4 split . I have been burning wood from the time I was 6 years old Stared splitting wood at the age of ten but was working in the woods starting at 8 hauling wood . Our only heat was wood. Try it some time just for the hell of it take a season log of the same size split one and time the burn you can even test the heat it gives off then after throw in the other log same size and weight . Time that as well you will notice it does not burn as fast and it will not burn as hot but it will burn longer meaning longer heat . The lager the split the longer the burn . I think you would find it interesting to try and see .
@williamklein6649
@williamklein6649 Год назад
I agree a larger piece last longer. It all depends on how you want your heat. If I start my stove I use small splits to bring it up to temperature faster. Once it’s to temp then I use larger splits. If it’s really cold and blowing I prefer to mix the sizes. It will give more BTUs faster with smaller splits because they burn faster. I will change how I feed the stove depending on outside temperatures and conditions wind ext. just remember 20 pounds of dry wood of the same species all contain the same amount of BTUs. It’s how it’s split is how long of a burn you get out of that 20 pounds of wood. My 2 cents. Peace

That is a nice machine. A question for you. It seems to make a real lot of rattles and I notice when ever you pull the box back with the hydraulics the radiator seems to move and flex. Is it loose or is it just poorly fastened to the frame? I would be concerned it is going to keep flexing and brake over time. Maybe it needs an angle brace to make it more sturdy ?

Just wondering why so many firewood channels put so much emphasis on "bundle quality" or "bundle grade" firewood. The typical consumer of "bundle" wood is the least likely customer in the firewood market to know quality wood from junk wood.
@Dorchwoods
@Dorchwoods Год назад
100% agree. That's why I bag my wood so it has a very professional appearance with wood that burns great, regardless how ugly it may be. Also, I only sell pine for campfires, selling hardwood for outside burning is such a waste in my opinion! Pine is fine!
