Splitting is done

[Backwoods Savage]

I finished that chore this morning. Now it has to be stacked but it might have to wait a bit as other things are lining up for me to do.

If someone wants to take a SWAG, go ahead and I'll post when it is stacked how much is there. btw, it is mostly ash with a few elm and soft maple mixed in for good measure. Most of the soft maple was made into kindling. The elm could have been split by hand; it was really easy splitting.

Nice work! I will throw out a # 4.75

For someone who always talks about slowing down you managed to get that split pretty quick! It was only two weeks ago that you started splitting! Good job Dennis!

 

[Backwoods Savage]

Hey, there wasn't that much wood there! I am slow. Thanks.

That there is a nice pile of firewood! I'm no good at guessing these things, but if I had to, I'd say 9 Jeep pickup loads.

 

[Got Wood]

Well, you "Got Wood" for sure.... I'll guess 3.5 cords

I was trying to come up with a way to stand the splitter up on the pile like quads does but just couldn't seem to do it and have it look right.

Ha ha! It takes a very special splitting maul to perform that task.

that's a good toss to the top of that pile! 9 cords

That's allot of swings for me. I'll go with 5 cords.

 

[hoosierhick]

Lets go with 6.5 . Nice looking pile!

Congratulations Savage, I'll guess 4 full cords.

 

[Backwoods Savage]

So far I'm willing to bet there are a few guesses that are pretty darned close.

It will still be some what of a guess? Maybe a little more insite but still a guess until its stacked.

Looks like 4-5 cords, Dennis. Nice!

Note to self: Hereafter, cut/process wood in bulk, like the pros do.

 

[Spikem]

6.25

 

[katwillny]

Nicely done Dennis. Enjoy it in good health.

 

[mhvond]

Nice pile. I guess 2.5 cords (320 cubic feet)

 

[Jags]

4.33 is my guess. Looking good Dennis.

 

[KYrob]

Great looking pile of wood. Gonna take awhile to stack it I bet. I'm thinkin 6 full cords with 3 little pieces left over.

Estimate about 3 full cords. We had roughly the same sized pile after splitting last weekend. I was a creaky cripple the next day. Only about 6 more cords to go <groan>.
