Tractors and wood! Show your pics

[Mikejeakins]

Here is a video of a cordwood saw that I built a few years ago for my B7100. We heat with wood and were looking for another means of processing the smaller logs that normally would get left behind. I don't think it really saves any time since there is an additional step involved, but I don't have to bend over and prop-up the small logs like I would have to with a chain saw. Plus it is easy to produce very accurate lengths that help with boiler loading efficiency, and the perfectly cut ends make a nice looking stack next to the fireplace..I cut wood because I enjoy the activity, so one more reason to be out in the woods with the tractor is not a bad thing 'ey?

I like your setup.

I have a couple of those buzz rigs, I use to use them for sawing up slab wood off my BSM.

Anyway, I found it's just much easier to grapple a load of slabs and chainsaw them right off my pallet forks, so the buzz rigs just sit unused.

very nice shed! might want some access to sides and back though unless you burn through a whole side or whole thing in a year.. I hate moving wood for the sake of moving it and want to burn the oldest first.. what ever I have left over I start with the next fall so I can just refill from where I stopped taking and just take wood from the back the following year..

Nice job, it looks like it came from the factory. I believe that they are about 1700 bucks new.

I don稚 guess it痴 firewood but it痴 wood with a tractor!

Hi SplitHoof,

WELCOME to TBN!!

That looks to me like a good-sized cedar- we do use the ends of the ones we use for landscaping, etc as kindling, I built my version of the [in my opinion overpriced] "Kindling Cracker" to split them fine and easier to catch on fire.

But no one said that it had to be firewood- look at some of the fine-looking lumber Sawyer Rob posts...

What are you planning for it?
