I've been cutting and hauling rounds home the last couple of months.
Mostly Oak and Maple. My son counted 100+ rings on one of the oak rounds and not even the largest one.
The pictures with the snow on the ground are trees that were cleared at a sand pit my boss operates.
The smaller rounds are craigslist scrounges.
I'm cutting rounds as long as I can 22"-24" to minimize cutting, splitting, stacking, handling and to maximize the size of my insert.
Most are too big for me to split by hand so I'll be renting a splitter.
I can rent an Iron and Oak splitter at the local rental shop for $50, picking up on Saturday afternoon returning Monday AM.
I'll post more pics of the pile and splitting when I get started.
