Tractors and wood! Show your pics

Looks like a death trap to me complete with bait.
(I'm not quite right am I)

The deepest part is 6 feet, so just stand up.

It's been 3 years almost to the day since I placed the order for this, and I am slowly getting it so I can use it.

It's still a work in progress.

Nice glad to see it finally showed up! Is that one automatic or a pusher?

Pusher. I've had it since Oct 2021, but am just learning to use it.

Ahh, ok I thought you just got it. Pretty easy to use actually although you might get a lot of waste to start out till you get used to it.

I 've been doin a little with it for a couple of years, but am just getting it set up so that it doesnt move when I put a log on it.My biggest thing so far is keeping the blades sharp. I started using my debarker yesterday yet still managed to trash a blade. I'm getting better though... two logs without cutting into the iron log stops on the back.

I HATE that when I hit those log stops! I put a little sign up at my push handle to check for those! I don't have a debarker but then again I don't have a winch so I don't get my logs so dirty.
Yeah, yours seems to be up in the air more than mine, mine sits on timbers on the ground.

Here's what my woodpile looks like today... too bad the white stuff didn't show up 3 months ago.

The strange thing is that I've burned more wood this winter than since I built the place 6 years ago. Yet still have kept the temps down to a more tolerable level (<80) than before.

Were you home more this year? We used quite a bit less this year than usual, and with both my wife and I being semi-retired one of us is usually home on any given day. We generally keep the place ~65 or so.

One thing that helps on sunny days is we have an enclosed 3 season porch on the SE side of the house. Doesn't do much in the dead of winter, but after Valentine's day or so the morning sun warms it right up to the point where we can let the stove run down.

I agree - pretty good pile under the snow though.

It does look like a nice pile under that snow... We unfortunately south of you got rain... a lot of rain... This is not a creek, it is usually our dry walking path down to our open area / field... we could have jumped in kayaks to get there yesterday (actually to many times this year)...

It has been so wet this winter we have stacked pallets of wood in our splitting area I can't even move with the tractor... Just to wet...
