Hey Chris, I’m 17, I have a small channel and just bought my first gas saw, a Husqvarna 272. thank you for inspiring me to work hard and get cutting!

[@franssikkema2273]

Well I support your channel as number 32. Greetings from The Netherlands.

[@InTheWoodyard]

That is awesome! Good for you!

Greetings from S. E. Ohio!!! Don't know if u will get this comment beening month old post but what was the music u were playing??? Andrew played it on some of his posts. I love bluegrass music & love ur channel

[@InTheWoodyard]

I think that was LOST NATIVE by NAT KEEFE with the BOW TIES. Thanks for watching John!

[@wesleykranz4464]

Genetics my friend. You are one of the fortunate ones that can work that much (very physical) and not be sore till 3pm the next day. Remember I told you I can't work more than 4 or 5 hours of this kind of work per day. You said I was maybe "too young". Funny. But everyone is impressed. Or your identical twin works w you.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes I am lucky everything works good for me for now!

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

Great video. May I ask do you film at 2.7k/60 with a gopro? That's what I was using but had to send my go pro in because it kept saying formatting error

[@InTheWoodyard]

No, 1080 / 30 is good enough.

[@edhansen8531]

Sometimes when the job is done a person is dead beat, and then you're looking at another hour, covering up splitter, and dry wood, driving home , supper and bed time, it must have 11.00, and sit down the computer. You are pushing your pretty hard.

[@InTheWoodyard]

You are correct Ed!

[@gboz4245]

Your wood addiction is serious. The first step is admitting it. The log truck is your gateway

[@InTheWoodyard]

Ha! Yes I have a problem!

[@williamfletcher1230]

Hey Chris you listen to anything in your work tune headphone like music love the show Bill

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, sometimes music, podcasts or talk radio.

[@norman1826]

Gezzzzz Chris that is a lot of splitting......well done..👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, gotta get it done!

[@pvwjr]

Impressive, I’m tired just watching you!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Good! Now you can take a nap!

[@arcforceworld]

I admire your work ethic. Absolute Unit!

[@boat6868]

For sure.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Much appreciated!

[@StudCity718]

You should buy a rocket light for those days when you need to work through the dark

[@InTheWoodyard]

I have a bunch of other lights to use when I plan on working late!

[@jordanhumphrey9615]

You split all of that by hand no proccesor?!?

[@InTheWoodyard]

I have a wood splitter!

[@brianrizzi6321]

Now if you could wood hound some free logs you could double your money.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Tripple!

[@mitchellsmith4283]

Hi, what log spliter do you have please? Also what is the cheapest fastest one please? Great videos

[@InTheWoodyard]

It was in the video...You might want to watch it and about 200 others on my channel featuring it. Eastonmade Ultra...it was in the title too.

[@mitchellsmith4283]

@@InTheWoodyard that's great thank you, What's a good kenetic one for my money?

[@skeets6060]

Are you making fire wood or kindling?

[@InTheWoodyard]

I make and sell about 200 full cords of firewood each year for people to burn in their fireplaces and for restaurants to cook and smoke with . They do not want big pieces like people who heat with wood so it is split smaller.

[@outdoorswithlarryrobin]

Good job! Nice wood! Cool weather! Great to be outside! A Great day in Life! Take Care! Beaver Trapper! 🪵👍🏼🇱🇷

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks! You too Larry!

[@chadfike7445]

How does the ultra do with knots and ugly hardwood stuff? Do you split any tree service logs or only logs from a logger?

[@InTheWoodyard]

If you watch a bunch of my 1200 videos on the channel with the wood I get you will see that about 40-50 full cords a year comes from tree service stuff, big nasty knotty junk so ya it does fine. The other 150ish cords comes from loggers but a bunch of that is nasty crap too!

[@chadfike7445]

@@InTheWoodyard awesome thanks so much for the reply!

[@devinlong1371]

Hello Chris, I have a question I was hoping you could help me out with. So last year I stacked all my wood to dry just like you do but I was wondering if I put some pallets on the ground and just threw all the wood on top of it in a big pile, would it dry that way ?

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, absolutely but just do not go so high that the wood on the bottom gets no air. Maybe 8' high or so.

[@devinlong1371]

@@InTheWoodyard yes that’s exactly what I was thinking around that height because not only the bottom pieces wouldn’t get air I wouldn’t want to be throwing it really high up there by hand. Thank you for your help I appreciate it

[@johnphillips770]

Well no one can say you don't have wood lol

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes I do!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

My Fleet Farm Lumberjack 27 glacier splitter and I manage to do about 1/2 of a full cord an hour with break time included. At that rate, I'm splitting kindling like your brother says you split.

[@InTheWoodyard]

That is a good amount as long as you keep splitting!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

@@InTheWoodyard, can do this for maybe 4hrs and then am pretty much done for the day. Less wood split if I refill the roadside stand as I go. Right now I split into the truck and then use it as a wheelbarrow to take it over to the roadside stand to refill.

[@boat6868]

You sure have s ton of inventory.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Ya, you have to have wood to sell it!

[@russdixon614]

would love to see a vid stacking all that firewood

[@InTheWoodyard]

Hello Russ, I will do a video or two on stacking it for sure! I do have some older videos on my channel with some stacking footage if you want to watch them!

You my friend, have many days of stacking firewood ahead of you!💪

[@InTheWoodyard]

I hope so! I have lots of wood to sell!

[@vernonleenc]

Did u buy your ultra or did Andrew donate one to your channel

[@InTheWoodyard]

$4700, but I am open to free tools!

[@vernonleenc]

Maybe he’ll donate a new upgraded Eastonmade splitter to your channel 🙏

[@MJADoingStuff]

Dude you keep killing wood like watching a horror channel. I know what you split last summer 😂👍HA! PS: What type of pain killers do you use I need it🙃

[@InTheWoodyard]

HA! Just a toddy at night once in a while!

[@oldschoolhillbilly560]

When I pick up the last one. I alway announce. This is the piece I have been looking for all day LAST ONE It's cold here in Georgia this week mid 50's day time low 30's at night .

[@InTheWoodyard]

50s is nice weather!

[@dennisconlon5810]

A word of advise, there is always tomorrow to finish splitting or cutting. I’m sixty years old and have had rotator/bicep surgery on both shoulders. You are doing a tremendous amount of physical work. It may be time to get a splitter that does the lifting for you. Enjoy your channel.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, I have been thinking the same thing!

[@davidedwards3734]

Good Morning Sir!! Lawn service has started here. So I'll go cut then come back and split, will stack Saturday. Saw how your work flow goes so Im trying it this time.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Hello David, thanks for watching!

[@klowrance9063]

Greetings from Clinton, Arkansas! I was wondering if you have changed the hydraulic and motor oils for the second time yet and also what are their types/weights? By the way, you are a 'splittin machine'!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes I did change the motor oil a few times now but not the hydro.

[@tinatuckerman9339]

Here in Vermont we call those pieces nubbins. Cookies are what we eat 🤣

[@tomriblett2979]

Started at sunup here got two cords done and then I was out of rounds So done chores and then decided to have a coffee as it was only 18 degrees when I started. I have an old spliter the reminds me of you old one....lol your new machine is really fast....just to old to get one now.

[@InTheWoodyard]

You are not too old, time is running out , get a faster splitter!

You did a good job Chris you could split that would like crazy that wood splitter does a good job God bless your family text me back

Thanks, you too!

[@liveandlearn5320]

I have a question I’ve been meaning to ask you do you take Tylenol or Aleve did you must get muscle aches from all the hard work you do

[@InTheWoodyard]

Neither, just an occasional toddy at night!

[@340dave]

You know, the Eastonmade Ultra would be ideal for me if it had a log lift. I can't see paying another 3k just for it though. You, on the other-hand, are a work horse! Be glad you back is still able to pick up those big'ins. Nite operations.. That's dedication.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Dave!

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

Man Chris. I don't like dealing with firewood in the dark.. But now that this is done. You can go start on the maple..

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes I can and I will!

[@philgriswold2133]

Way to stick with it. It's rare to see people work until they're done now. Most people just work until it's time to go home.

I have been self employed for 30 years and like to finish a job because no one is coming to replace me!

"That's a big pile" That is an understatement but Chris turns big piles into smaller stacks and then into dead presidents.
