Admittedly the longer rounds were still not ready, but any rounds that were 12" or less fully seasoned in six months in the round. Wood burning magic!
Oh shush, you. I know all about your wood burning situation. It is of epic proportions. This is the best I get in the land of overdeveloped small lots and high taxes.Yes softwood can season fast given the right conditions.
I live near a magical forest where the trees are already seasoned before I even cut them down.![]()
Bob, do you actually get a different reading by turning the prongs on your meter 90 deg? I've never been able too, I get the same reading either way.Not questioning the reading or readiness but isn't the most accurate method to turn the prongs parallel with the grain? Not a big deal - just thought I read that here at some time?
It is proving to be annoying to split. I've been eyeing the harbor freight electric splitter to take care of this.Blue spruce? To many damn branches, you can have it.
Even after reading this thread Im not fully convinced I want to trying burning softwood. I hate the goohy sticky pitch associated with cutting pines.
And I keep a stockpile of mineral spirits and acetone and toluene.

Hmmm? Pam is pretty slippery, maybe she was just spraying the Pam on your hands so you wouldn't be able to climb those trees.As a kid I would get pitch all over my hands from climbing trees. My mom would spray Pam cooking spray on my hands to take it off.
