This is my drug I could do this everyday. I enjoy splitting by hand. Check with your local tree companies. I just started making some cold calls to a few and 1 out 5 will drop some logs off at your home instead of paying a few bucks to dump itThe price was right.....heck, by the title of the post, I thought you were giving away free wood
Hopefully it's there tomorrow. Good luck and enjoy your night . Wake up early tomorrow and see if its still therepower line maintenance all the way home from work this afternoon......piles and PILES of it on the roadside, all free for the taking! We've got plans tonight, so I'm gonna miss out on that free wood! It'll be gone by tomorrow morning.....
Can't go wrong with some free wood that I picked up from the side of the road I just wish it wasn't raining so I could split it with my x27 what a good work out for 2 hours
I wish the rain would of stopped today so at least I could of tried to split a few more piles. I guess I will have to wait till tomorrow after work. It's great getting a good work out at the same time. I should have at least 4 cords c/s/s by next year or maybe more. I have to go look at some next week down in pleasantville that my parents neighbor wants to get rid of cant waitThat's a nice little pile. You and I are kinda close. We may have to set up territorial boundaries. Or maybe work together?
No, don't choose to work with Steve. He'll kill you. That guy is an bull when it comes to putting up firewood!
You don't have to worry about me for now lmao. When I get my pick up next year you might have to worry lol just kidding. Do you ever come to my neck of the woods? I found some nice logs on bear mountain pkwy last week and when I went back to get the other load it was gone. Did you happen to get that pile?I can play nice of need be. Its just that NYLife is dangerously close to me. I can usually spot roadside scrounges in my area and come back months or even years later or them. If he stays around here, he's gonna feel a need to start hording. If that happens, I might have some competition.
It sure is. Have u had any luck getting anyFree is a good thing

Oh ok. Good for you. I think I will be more addicted once I get the pickup. It will make it easier to load more and plus I will keep the saw in it as well. What kind of wood gives off the most heat? How many cords do you have right nowWasn't me. I actually haven't brought any wood to my place since January 1st. My 1/4 acre is full for now. I'll be getting back into it in the next week or so. I've got my eye on 2 or 3 cords of Black Locust, Red Oak and, I think some kind of Hickory within 1/2 mile of my place. I'll stay out of your area for a while.
Wow that's a nice pile. Do you have a big shed? Last winter we were lucky. I can't to get my stove installed next week. I got tired of those oil bills. I guess you and I will pick up all the wood that's left aroundI've got 13+ cords now. I burn about 4 per real winter, only about 2 1/2 last year. A mild winter and the storms last fall made it very easy for me to get a 3 year supply together. It is an addiction, but somebody has to pick up all that wood left around.
Ok I'm gonna work on building a pallet shed. I go to the lumber place and pick up 3 pallets a week . I like keeping the wood off the grassNo shed. Its all along one property line. I keep about 1/3 cord on the covered front porch during the heating season. I throw a tarp over the next few feet of the outside stack when snow is forecast.
Thanks pal . I could get as many as I like but my outback only fits 3 can't wait to get this pick up it will come in handy for a lot of things.I have a nearly endless supply of pallets at the two nurseries near me. I can hook you up if you want. Just keep you hands off the firewood when over this way. I stack three rows deep and about 4'-5' high on just under 100' of pallets. Makes a nice fence.

Steve, if NYLife is going to be scrounging in your area, maybe you should have said you were going after some Poplar, Pine and Crottonwood.I've got my eye on 2 or 3 cords of Black Locust, Red Oak and, I think some kind of Hickory
