We are getting a Woodstock Fireview and the specs say that it takes 16" logs. I've got a cord from last year that are 18-24" so I need to cut them down. With the tree that's coming down soon I need to make sure I don't have to do this again.
My father in-law recommended that I make a gauge and mark the tree before cutting. They guy who is cutting down the tree said to use the bar of the chainsaw (which is 16"), eyeball it and cut. I tried this today on some smaller limbs I had and it wasn't that easy.
How do you guys get your logs cut to the correct length? I assume that the more I cut the easier it becomes.
thanks!
