Started the day snow blowing for a couple hours at about 8:30a. I took a 15 minute lunch after a couple more hours on the loader. Finished about 2p we're officially ready for round 3.
That thing sounds like a bunch of angry bees!They dry quick and are easier to split, little harder to get stacked straight though[emoji38].
The larger log was dead standing ash that was taken out a few yrs ago(hard as a rock), the smaller one is a stick of cherry that was green when taken down a couple yrs ago, the inside is still a bit moist it was on top of my green log pile so it should be the driest. I throw the cookies in the wheelbarrow and bring them right in the house, let the snow melt off and throw them into the fire. They work real well for reducing the coals as they are already thin and all the fresh air blows under them when the draft is open. If you let them sit on top of the stove they curl up like a bowl, it looks pretty cool.
I like burnt cookies .
Here's a 254 I was playing with the same day iirc.
It's running an 18" round ground chain with a little to much hook, she was a bit grabby, but cutting fast for semi chisel .
It's what scroungers do. He didn't want to end up like @dancan .You mounted a winch on the back of your Firebird? Cool!

View attachment 714702 I like the isocore in the big stuff. I still follow Steve's advice though. If it takes more then 4 hits get the saw.
That's funny, I just listened on my phone to without watching it, they do sound a bit upset.That thing sounds like a bunch of angry bees!

The Fiskars chopping axe was designed with a hollow handle for head speed, handle flex, and it actually dampens vibrations from an over-strike. They are a composite handle and warrantied against breakage.No orange portion on the handle and the bottom was open?

I have an old 8lb generic maul that the wooden handle cracked. Good enough excuse for me to
get the isoscore. Almost had the axe but put it back.....it looked partially assembled? No orange portion on the handle and the bottom was open?
That may be true, but it may or may not stop the handle from breaking on an overstrike.The Fiskars chopping axe was designed with a hollow handle for head speed, handle flex, and it actually dampens vibrations from an over-strike. They are a composite handle and warrantied against breakage.
Over-strikes are for amateurs. I never over-strikeThat may be true, but it may or may not stop the handle from breaking on an overstrike.
I like mine in the right wood, just like saws, I'd rather not be stuck with only one axe .
You're the man .Over-strikes are for amateurs. I never over-strike
Guys, while it's not 100% conclusive, my digging around today makes me believe LCS is goneburger. Sadly.Left Coast Supplies has them at about $91 and I like dealing with Gregg so will probably go that route.
Mike i told James 4 hits and if it doesn't start to go grab the saw. just because i know he likes to . old age tends to make me a little smarter.James, I don't go by the # of swings with the Fiskars, but by the sound. If it is starting to go, I won't quit! I'll walk a line right across the piece. Accuracy (staying on the line) is key.
