General question;
How long does it take the average person to cut/buck one cord of wood?
It seems obvious to me, after cutting several cords (5) that I'm really slow.
The reason, I believe, is because the trees I'm turning into rounds are very small, most 12" and less.
(when the branches get to less than 3" I stop cutting)
If I had trees 24"-36" across, I could turn out a cord fairly fast.
In the last two days, I spent 2 hours per day and cut about a half cord each day
(total of 4 man hours in 2 days for 1 cord)
So how does it work for you guys/gals who scrounge, cut in your woodlot, whatever?
