    Firewood

    Forgot one thing John. You have to wear your Hipster logger shirt and suspenders, when you shop. For that extra authenticity, you know.

    Y'all need to give up at anachronistic way of measuring firewood and go metric. Anyone can understand metric, seems no-one can understand face cord.

    Firewood

    Quartersawn sycamore is sold under the name lace wood for that reason. Big ones can be turned ( As in wood turnning) into the most amazing platters and low bowls.

    Firewood

    Been that way since about forever. Nothing new. Antrodia sinuosa is wrecking havoc on castles and other historical buildings in Europe. It was traced to a shipment of lumber brought from Nepal to England some 300 years ago. The happy little fungus that killed of the Castanea dentata all over...

    Took me a while to think this one through. Still not sure I got it. So China forced the US somehow to import Emerald ash borer. Wow!

    I buy a ticket in the California state lottery every time I go over. Just to give lady luck that one chance.

    I want mine spread in the Swiss Alps. Furka pass would be nice. Actually I don't give a damn, since I'll be dead. Just effing with you.

    Well, it looks like it gets the job done. Some nice, even size pieces of firewood in those stacks.

    So wood stored in a shed rots at your place. Must be some climate, you have.

    Firewood

    This is my firewood setup: 70 cubic meters in the shed. Used to be barely enough for 2 winters, now with the climate being so much milder, it is almost good for 3. Then another 50 CM under a tarp. My wood is at least seasoned for 4 years before it goes in the furnace.

    Firewood

    With oil prices the way they are here, I have plenty of incentive to make firewood for heating my house. Heating it with oil would cost me around 5 grand a year, firewood only costs me the work I put into it. Just finished splitting 2 cords of elm, I brought home from one of the National park jobs.

    Firewood

    I can burn pine in my furnace without any problems. Just got to adjust the primary and secondary air feeds to fit it. But, since the work of cutting, splitting and stacking is the same with Pine and Beech and I get almost twice the BTUs per unit from beech, guess what I burn.

    Firewood

    That is 'bout half of what I use in a year. If it is all hardwood, that is. Sometimes I think of how much wood I've cut and split and run through the boiler in the 20 some years I've had the place. Then I quickly try to think of something more pleasant:lol:

    Looks good. I was just on the phone with a forwarder operator, to see if I could entice him to bring mine out of the woods.
