Ah, but if you make a 3 ply tissue with them, you're good to go. :thumbsup:

A handful of such out in the woods is perfect . . .

A lot of places I only have pine, spruce, and fir so I wimp out and carry a zip-lock of TP in the tool box or one of my wood vest pockets.

No need for a zip lock bag, just throw the TP roll in with the oil jugs. :shocked:

My Grandpa used to keep it over the spout on the gascan. You did have to be careful...and remove it during refueling. It did spool off nice if you needed it.

THat's an especially good idea in winter. Aside from the original purpose it also can serve as an emergency fire starter. Besides, snow makes a rather poor substitute for a roll of Scotties.

5 cords isn't a bad day anyways. "Back in the day", when most cutting was done with a 2 man skidder crew 100 cords/week was a good week.

I have always cut wood alone, but just a few years ago I could cut a load of wood per day (10 cords) but those days are over. I am pretty sick, so I get done what I get done, and try not to compare myself with "my old self."

I do not use a lot of fuel though, so while I do not get much out, I also do not have a lot of costs in the deal either.

I am hammering the ash before the EAB arrives, so it being incredibly light wood, the mud will at least make the wood weigh up a lot batter.

regarding what Broken track had to say that top leaf is definetly not the leaf to use due to the hole in the middle.

I was not looking for "wiping recommendations" just looking for identifications of trees...

So you say you got 5 cords in a day.. I take it that's felled and drug out of the woods.. does that include any bucking or splitting?

I am working in the mud, I am not doing that with any of this wood. Firewood has to be a certain size, of certain types of wood, and CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN.

This wood can go to the paper mill, they do not care how muddy the wood is. (LOL)
