Get one of these !Thankyou much for the kind offer. We're getting a log splitter as soon as DH can decide on the one he wants. He's been trying to decide for the last six months.
These weren't rounds we had delivered, they were tree trunks. Some of those suckers were 12 feet long. Luckily the really wide ones are only 5-6 foot long. We ended up getting a log jack to get them lifted up so he could saw them into rounds. There is one really long, heavy one out there that even he couldn't get up with the jack. I told him he should just cut halfway through in the middle and roll it. Then we might be able to jack up each half.
I'm only running a space heater right now. It pops on for a few minutes every hour or so. I can't bring myself to build a fire for a couple degrees.
There are ash and willows saplings that came up out in the area the previous owner "cleared". I told DH we should let them grow until they are big enough around to burn, then we can start harvesting some of them. There just aren't many trees on the front 8 or so acres because of the guy.
I bet CR would LOVE one of these !!!!!!!!!
