You can use it for the bottom of the trailers, carts, rail wagons... It sustains loading rocks better than oak planks.

Actual length(s), % of void, wood's density and composition, humidity... All that influences deeply what is really sold and all that is either unknow or hard to figure out at best when one want to buy some. Trust ? Yea, sure... It isn't much more easier for the seller if he wants to set an...

Will somone find one day a fair system to sell/buy firewood? It looks hopeless, either metric or imperial. :D

Legaly, 1 "stère" is a cube of 1 meter filled with firewood logs of 1 meter long. So splitted or not, but ready to burn and reasonably well stacked. It takes in count the natural curvature and dimensional imprecision of the wood, translating in minimal "void" in the stack. It isn't so simple in...

I'd love to do that, but I wonder in how many time the cops would find my location.

Acer pseudoplatanus is a mapple and has nothing to do with the Platanus (London plane). The only health issue I'm aware of for the Acer pseudoplatanus is the soot like bark disease with the spores being a serious pulmonary threat (beside killing the tree). I didn't heard of allergy due to the...

She's so picky.

That's why this kind of splitter is forbiden now. OK on an excavator or a skidder but no more with hand feeding. The latest manual ones had some features to improove the safety, like anti-rotating and anti-jamming devices though, but the old screw alone style (like the one mounted on a car's...

Ethanol can freeze like water, but at a way lower temp. It isn't the issue with our climats. A major problem comes with the moisture took by the ethanol from the surrounding air. It then reacts with the instable products contained in the gas and forms some corrosive agents (amongs other craps...

Very few around here. I saw maybe three in 10 years. The wood is very heavy and stringy but seems to split/ break easily due to wind and weight. The fruits rot quickly on the ground and steping on that isn't fun. I didn't find any seed in them, but that could be explained by the rarity if they...

When I was looking to buy a splitter, I found strange that the ratting force/hp of the chinese ones were higher on average than those from the west wold. Some magic tech ? No, to calculate the force, it seems that they simply use the outside diameter of the cylinder ! A good bunch of pounds...

In the shed, eaten by tiny bugs and converted to flour, yes, but that take way more than 4 years. For rot, the fungi need a good amount of water, either by direct rain or by contact with the ground. Less than the bacterial activity but still, water is key. But I don't know if saturated humidity...
