Kubota and Firewood

[MMfrompa]

Yesterday before the rain then snow came I cut a little firewood. I made an attempt to video my process that works for me. I like to get all the rounds to my firewood yard / work area / food plot lol. When it's dry or frozen I concentrate on getting rounds in then I can just split whenever the time allows since that work isn't really weather dependent. Don't know why but cutting wood is one of my most favorite activities. I started screwing around with I movie a few months ago mostly as a good way to organize and keep video and pictures of places we visit. This is my first attempt at a video like this.:thumbsup:

Firewood is a way of life. Good job producing that video. There are some nice looking woods on your place.

Great video. I also enjoy cutting wood. Strong winds took down a small oak on a vacant lot nearby this weekend. Great! Windfall firewood and a chance to use the saws, splitter, versa trailer, the B2650, and the pallet fork bucket. Chipper next week.

I have a trail about 1.5 miles long, almost 1/2 my firewood comes from blow downs lol. It seems every storm we have there is always a couple across or within 50' of the trail.

How bout that Fat Lighter? Love finding a big piece and then shaving it down for the slivers that light up the fireplace. Never figured out how to make a pine turn into fat lighter... any thoughts on that would be uh pre she ate it.

You mean fat wood? My grandpa told me he used to pick up knots from fallen pine trees. He said the tree rots pretty fast, but the knots last a lot longer and he just picked them up.
