Bout the same size as ours then.
We have electric forced air heat as well, but it never comes on unless no one gets up early to throw another log on.

Lol...yeah I know it....I've gotten up a lot in the middle of the night to throw wood in, burned my arm a few times cause I was half asleep lol

 

Haha weekdays someone's always up at 5 so usually by then there's still enough heat in there to throw a log on and be good.

Usually we just toss on a big heavy log and close off most of the air intake thing (can't remember what it's called for some reason) and it will last.


There's a few more trees down today thanks to the wind. So now we got even more to do this summer.

 

lol.....it's called the damper

 

Finally done cutting

 

good looking logs you got. what kind of wood is that?

 

I have no clue, My ex wifes uncle brings me rejects from the mills. They are nice logs but I eat up chains with the nails and spike in them. I found a friggin railroad spike in the last load of logs I cut. Judging by the ring on the tree it was nailed in almost 100 years ago

 

ah thats not good! hope you have a bunch of extra chains haha

 

I have three, I blew one to **** earlier in the spring so I am down to 2 now

 

better get some more haha

we have ton. something like 20 between 3 chain saws haha its a bit overkill

 

lol that's almost as good as my buddie finding a 4' chainsaw bar in the tree he was cutting.

 

Did he really?

 

We found some piece I barbed wire in a few trees. Guess they tree grew around an old fence. An they took the fence down and it just kept growing with barbed wire inside haha.

Trees are pretty tough things when you think about it. They will swallow crap and keep growing around it perfectly fine.

 

Yeah I have heard stuff like that. I heard somewhere in the south, a guy found a civil war rifle inside a tree. They say the soldier leaned the rifle against it and it grew around it. The gun was supposedly well preserved within the tree

 

yep, our guess was it was leaned against the tree back in the late 40's when the hillside was logged out. killed 3 brand new chains on it!

i checked to see if it would fit the old homelite but it didin't :thumbdown:

usually we find lots of barbed wire when we're cutting. the hill we cut on was a farm back in the 1800's, and you can still make out the differant pastures by which trees have barbed wire sticking out of 'em.

 

Got about 3/4 split and moved to the back today. I am wiped the **** out now!

 

I found a picture of Clinton and his first saw
