We are gettin it gents.
2 saws running for 2 days straight w 2 guys splitting 2 days straight, w one bossy dago in the middle of it.
Get sum.
I took these logs, about 200 yards worth at the begining of summer, bark is already falling off. Set in the sun, the split wood will burn good in a couple weeks.

Maul is holding up well.....overstrike paracord has saved the day.....
Got to break out my detachable penis......
I think this is red oak. Stuff is fantastic. Its as dense as Biden....when I throw it in the pile it sounds like two baseball bats smacking together.
Tomorrows work....
Still to get to....
My pile of "uglies" that are going in the burn bowl....
My third wood pile I have had to create....

Future reference, if you wait until it’s thoroughly frozen it will reduce your swing count by about 50%.
I haven't done that yet but, it is coming.Maul is holding up well.....overstrike paracord has saved the day.....

Your fucking cool points are going through the roof dude.
Super fucking fantastic, that's a GOOD job.
You may want to get into the firewood business, just saying

I think it will reduce my swing count by 100% as me in freezing weather, warming myself up by wood chopping, does not sound fun.
This is what we have left of pile 1
and this is where we are at now w the new pile.
This time of the year I move the pile to the s side of the yard because it's in the sun all day. The other pile area is, because of winter, all shaded.
And this is where I keep fucking up, I don't remember to put the flag pole up and build the pile around it's center.
Phil, your holz hauzen also needs a pole and flag put in before you fill the center w loose wood. That thing is going to make you locally famous, nice job again

Too hidden in the woods and behind my 8 foot log rack.
Wish it was visible as it does look kind of cool. It will be my "go to" wood pile because its in a shady area and on dirt. dont want the bottom of the pile to be loam before I can use it.
Should have built it inside what used to be the kids playset corral.
I chop my stuff smaller than I would prefer in hopes it will dry quicker. Im not one to get bummed out if I have to feed the fire cause the shirt is burning hot and fast.
I don’t want anything to do with a maul unless it’s below 25F if I can avoid it.
I used to hand split for heat, living at 8500 ft.
same as Mr Z, nothing like a brisk AM and splitting in a long John shirt, cap, and gloves. Start out with a vest to not have my nipples ripping up my shirt, then about 10 min and just a shirt for a while. Usually just split every other day or every 3rd.
That was 16 yrs ago. thankfully no camera phones, or my buddies didnt have them.
go eat a crayon and rub some oil on some hard wood.
You will feel mo better.

One of my favorite wood cutting accessories.......
Throw that "smock" over whatever I am wearing and I really dont have to worry about destroying what I have on. wear the nice fFlson wool sweater and not get it killed, no problem....Matches my rifle also...
Loving more of this red oak....
Good enough pile for the mornings work....
Going to prep the big boys for disposal after some maintenance time....
The "uglies pile" has been getting fed into the burn bowl giving the whole neighborhood a great smell...
Need some new gloves, these getting beat......

Hit the boner maker with the files. Took the depth gauges down for the first time.
Was making some nice curls after the files.....
All cleaned up on the neighbors side...

This will be my vantage point and view as the fams sets up the Christmas tree tonight.....
You bet. Enough that it wouldn’t dump under the pivot on the gate.
Let's see what my shit back can do to this pile.
About an hour ago. This is all live oak, the best firewood around.
and above, a few min ago
No just a wierd lighting thing from the camera. The shiny parts reflecting the wood lit up by the fire?Is that rust?
Whew! I thought I was going to have to report you.
Freshened my maul yesterday....
Still working the edge, it's got a couple decades of neglect to fix.
