Cutoffs and cookies are a problem for all firewood cutters. They don't have to go into the burn pile. Today I clean up my cookies in the woodyard and make some cash at the same time. Cookies are great for boiler wood!
It nice knowing the stuff I don't feel like messing with won't get wasted. My buddy loves my cookies for his boiler. Nice work brother. 🍻🍻

I do the same with all my wood that isn’t quite split wood quality or is just scrap wood. Waste not want not! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I’m hoping to develop a boiler market for cookies. It’s great wood and a shame to waste.
@backyardfirewood98528 ай бұрын
@@oldguyfirewood yep. I don’t charge near as much BUT I don’t have to put time into it either. Especially with not so good Ash or dead Elm, I’ll cut it, load my trailer and deliver.

Definitely worth saving good boiler wood. I split mine down burn in the wood stove.
@oldguyfirewood8 ай бұрын
I have a Woodstove in my shop but would never burn the quantity of cookies I have. I hope it will continue to sell as boiler wood.

@@oldguyfirewood I am don’t sell wood so I don’t have a ton. Lot cut off and nasty this year. My stove take up to 24. So length not really critical. I need to try start cutting everything as close to 16 as I can. I think I do stand come spring. The nasty are the best wood.

Uncle Benjamin found a better home 😊 Question, what made you choose a trailer with one big gate rather than 2 that open to each side?
@oldguyfirewood8 ай бұрын
Good question… I’m surprised you were the first to ask. I bought the trailer used several years ago. It had the one solid tailgate that was hinged top and bottom. When I used the bottom hinge and dumped, the tailgate would hit the ground before the trailer would fully dump. I converted it to side hinge to eliminate the problem.
@bobrumpf25768 ай бұрын
Hello Dick, nice work...the dump trailer got it done.....do you load your splitter in there on mobile work? happy new years

Hi Bob. I can pull the Wolfe Ridge at 45 mph. My mobile jobs are close enough to make that work.

What size trailer is that, and do you pull it with a half ton?
@oldguyfirewood8 ай бұрын
Hey Mike. It’s a 6x10 and I pull it with an F150. 7x12 is the biggest would go with a half ton. The 6x10 is a good size. I can fit a full cord if I put my wood sides on. That load of cookies was over 2/3 cord.
