Stack a trailer/ bed a few times, dump, throw it in loose, measure calibrate.

Nicely done. All I've got is lots of rounds and logs. Luckily, this past mid-winter we installed a large wood stove where there was a small wood stove previously. It takes big round...lots less splitting!

Agreed. I cover it when it's split until dry summer weather, then again in the fall.

Cover the top in fall before wet weather arrives. A long time ago, I build a nice 200 sq ft wood shed add-on to my barn, but it's too good to use for firewood. It's near my old firewood processing area and no longer convenient. I've got air-dried madrona slabs and other dry storage there...

My experience is that most people want 16", maybe fitting 18" or a little bigger. For my house, I need to be sure to split it small enough to relate the heat output without overheating. Stacking tall needs food control on lengths.

2 guys I knew/know, one being my neighbor Charlie, say skookum. I've seen Skookum-brand rigging blocks. Definitely PNW-ese.

Stumps at least have some character. Those are just rounds.

Glad to hear you can get back to it.

If quartering anyway, why not halve or quarter the log? Noodling is easier, but ripping on a 45⁰ isn't so bad.

Even pulling , oneself, seems better than lifting, to me.

With a certain amount of void space

Maple leave ash, doug- fir sends comparable for heat, and magically burns to nothing. Seems maple leaves clinkers, too, but less compared to madrona. Gotta be careful not to over-fire with madrona.

I fully agree about cherry bark and stringiness. I just finished splitting some for friends. The lever did just fine...hydraulic valve lever, that is.

Respirator tree or while-raining tree.

They were getting OT to be interested in you.

The ash will be ready, Kyle, right of the bat? My supply will last for my house, and GF's stove and rental apt stove. I need somebody to supply me a paid wood hauling job. All the cedar and nice fir logs are piling up, but are for milling.

Rich, can you make a pneumatic caster base that you set the bin on? A lever and little trickery to jack it up enough to change bins without much trouble seems possible.

Gotta loosen your grip some, at the last split-second... take some of the rattle out of it. I was recently trying the slight twist just before impact, too. Hard to know if that helps.
