I ve got a long bar......

[hoss]

" i've got a long bar "




That's what they all say.

 

[ericjeeper]

The stack is full in the middle

The center is stacked standing on end grains. works like a chimney. Called a Holz Hauzen. Hot house. They are a pain to stack with larger splits.. I have tried to build two of them and they both fell over..Pain in the butt.. But they will hold a lot of wood in a small space of land.

Dude, that's fricken awesome...!!!!! You guys cut that sucker down. That tree musta come from out west, lol... You didn't happen to count the rings in that did you?? I'd be willing to bet that sucker is in the 300 yr range. When I get a biggun like that I usually try to take a couple min and count. Kinda respect thing I guess. To have lived for 3 or 400 yrs is just wild to think about eh? Like that 1000 yr old tree out west. Alive before columbus was here... Ain't that a heck of a thing? And that sucker your cutting ain't a fir, that's a hardwood that size. Not a whole lot of'em left like that here... Super post bro...



Chik'n would like to run that sucker when we come down in a few weeks, heheheehehehehe...

LOL DUDE that was a maple taken down about 8 miles from my shop. It was felled with that 166 wearing a 38" at the time it was before I owned the 50", 60" and the 72" GB bars.

VERY Cool...

Here some pics from my 166:

Mr. Suckelfass, do you always stack your wood in a rounded fashion like that there??? That is really cool #1, but #2 why do you do that? Does it make it dry better? Or do you just stack it like that for looks or something every once in while??? Super pics guy... Keep'em coming eh?

eh?

Also, whats the weather like there now??? Temps etc??? We had 13 Fahreheit this morning and have still been getting snow here, like 8 or 10 inches 2 days ago... opcorn:

 

[Mr.Suckelfass]

Cool pics, it's refreshing to see stuff out of the ordinary and totaly useless (in a good way) Question on your round chimney wood piles, do you fill the centers or leave them open? I'm going to try stacking like that. I've seen some very creative wood piles that look like small grain bins.

I filled the center even the two circles.

Here a pic from beginning:

I stack it on thís way because i have no room more for the wood.

Interesting

I tried to stack wood like that once but the land is too uneven for good results. Did seem to be nicely self-supporting though and at least some of the pile is just tossed loosely in so not as time consuming.

Some people around here do that but I don't really know why they do it. It is done out in the open so I guess they have no woodshed.

 

[Mr.Suckelfass]

today i'v checked of the chain. It have 210 driving links!!!

Here some pics from my 166:

Nice stacking job!!! Although I still prefer the 1 meter stacking better. Just do not tell anyone that most of the wood you burn is pine or you will catch holly heck from the people in the US.

Where in Bayern can you even use a saw like that?

You wouldn't have to get out of the truck with that bar.

Brings a new term "Drive by Logging".

Yes, but the 10-10 would be on the "helper handle" end.
