Keeson and HaWe make these already

Who has $4000 dollars for a small trailer. Yes people reading comments. 4 Gs plus.

I would have guessed Elm Tree. I will never ax split Elm or Cottonwood ever again.

163

tell your wife that she does very good job.

Gum wood

Great video but. THAT TRAILER IS $4,000 (DOLLARS)..!!!!! Nope. Next say the price..

The cycle count will become more valuable as time goes on, to make comparisons. It's not the actual number, it's how it compares to another number, if doing something differently, adding some technology, or changing the process. The magnet on the brush is a great idea! I made a tubular holder for my brush, always has to go back to same place. The magnet is versatile.

Great video, thank you! Question about the Swisstrax.... After leaving the dirt under there for a couple years, when it gets wet, does all that sediment under there smell like... "wet dirt"?

That looks like Hickory.. there are other wood splitting KZbinrs that struggle with that stuff too.

Sweet gum

Sweet gum is my guess. Satan wood just like elm.

Sweet gum for sure

Looks like Elm to me....

460

317

My guess: Elm

I'm comfortable with my left blade worm drive. I have bought a couple under powered cordless saws that have disappointed me. Looking into a Milwaukee cordless saw and now I'm lost on left or right. Thanks for that, 😆 Good selling points for right blade.

Black Tupelo, black gum, Pepperidge are all common names! Absolutely terrible firewood lol

American Elm seems to be a consensus for the stringy split wood at other forums. A wild guess of 177 cycles?

If you split the wood bigger like us west coasters do, you’d cut that cycle count by more than half 🤣😂

Thanks for that , I ordered the 5 ton and I will be doing that hack , seems like it should work for long time. Thanks

Mystery wood is sweet gum

Doug, you are the epitome of organization. Whether outside in the woodyard or in your garage and workshops. Absolutely awesome.

I was thinking cotton wood

I would guess 1250

Gum

Hey Doug, have you considered building a platform for the totes? Get them off the ground a bit and it might save your back from the repeated bending over stacking the wood.

Looks like elm

As far as the species of the tree, my first thought was Elm. But there is a chance it might be sweet gum.

Doug my guess is 250 cycles

Looks like Sweet Gum for that "mystery wood"

Maybe Mulberry? Love the videos! Maybe show a video of it burning. Remember my widowed neighbor Claudia said "all dry wood burns fine". Have a great day!

I use both types of saws left and right i prefer l left handed saw! In my experience the left handed saw doesn’t bind or wobble,just takes a bit of skill to control.

I would say 800 Cycles.

I want to see if larger rounds require more or less cycles than a bunch of smaller limb wood that only needs split once or twice. Be a neat experiment

I love the idea of the magnet on the back of your brush. Very convenient. Looks like some sort of Elm.

I have some stringy Elm. What I found is you split all the way around the round. Just a small piece off the edge. Then you can quarter or whatever pretty decently.

Our guess is elm.

A fun episode would be to see you split a basket of that and calculate the time difference. lol

300ish

I thought that you said 3 baskets. Just joking

I guess elm, but I would ask Chris “In The Woodyard”

I should have mentioned that I really enjoy your videos

1000, Doug, I don’t believe in covering wood in the summer. I believe that it does not let the wood get as much air. This is the only time that I did not agree with you! I do cover it during the winter.

Gum tree. I guessed 350 was close 👊👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

My guess would be 390 pieces great video, Doug , I love my 17 VSC it’s unbelievably addictive to run😂

elm

D*** dude you got a pile of wood! Giving Adam a run for his money! Looking good my man!

Sweet gum young sweet gum splits easier, gotta be super dry not to pop when burning
