CASH FOR COOKIES! #85

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!

Can’t beat that! Perfect boiler wood, happy 2024 Dick👍👍

Happy New Year Jeremiah!

[@LogCabinFirewood]

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. 🍻🍻

[@oldguyfirewood]

Thanks Jack. It sure beats putting it on the burn pile.

[@McKameyFarms]

Nice load of cookies! Burns well and brings back the Benjamins 👌🏻 Take care, Brandon

[@oldguyfirewood]

Thanks for watching Brandon. I sold it cheap… win/win for both of us.

Happy New Year to you and your family David!

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

[@oldguyfirewood]

I’m hoping to develop a boiler market for cookies. It’s great wood and a shame to waste.

[@backyardfirewood9852]

@@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.

[@danshouseofsmokeandoutdoor7119]

Definitely worth saving good boiler wood. I split mine down burn in the wood stove.

[@oldguyfirewood]

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.

[@danshouseofsmokeandoutdoor7119]

@@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.

I like that version of Cherokee Shuffle.

Thanks for watching!

[@johnpierce1251]

That was a short fun video hope your Xmas was great stay safe my friend

[@oldguyfirewood]

Thanks John. Christmas was great… hope yours was too. Happy New Year!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Our new outdoor boiler is eating our cookies and garbage wood!

[@oldguyfirewood]

That’s an ideal situation Heath. I burn some in my shop stove but no where near as much as I produce.

[@billobermeyer660]

Awesome win/win Dick, less work for you and they get what they want!

[@oldguyfirewood]

Hi Obie. I sold it cheap but way better than going to the burn pile. Win/win for sure.

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

Nice load of wood

[@oldguyfirewood]

Thanks Larry. I sold it cheap but it’s better than throwing it in the burn pile.

[@EuroYardService]

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?

[@oldguyfirewood]

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.

[@bobrumpf2576]

Hello Dick, nice work...the dump trailer got it done.....do you load your splitter in there on mobile work? happy new years

[@oldguyfirewood]

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

[@smorefirewood]

Sorry to say you make one homely Girl Scout.

[@oldguyfirewood]

Thank goodness! If I was labeled as a pretty Girl Scout I’d be pissed off 😠 ha!

[@firewoodathome]

👍👍

[@oldguyfirewood]

Thanks!

[@morningswithgranny7789]

I could have used some of the wood for my campfire!!! Lol.Happy New Year!!!!🎆

[@oldguyfirewood]

I burn some in my shop wood stove and fire pit.

[@KampsKorner]

I tried to unload my cookies last year. I only had one person with any interest and they were a no show 2 times. So unfortunately I dump mine in a hole at the corner of the property.

[@oldguyfirewood]

Im hoping it might b work out.

[@LeBlancfirewood]

Hi Dick plan on splitting my cookies and bagging this summer chris from Tupper Lake

[@oldguyfirewood]

That’s a good idea Chris. Happy New Year!

[@Andrew_From_NB]

Fun video Dick! Thanks for taking us along! Andrew from NB :)

[@oldguyfirewood]

Hi Andrew. Glad you enjoyed!

[@bobfitch607]

The woodyard gets cleaned up and you get some cash 💰 win win. have a very happy new year buddy 🍻🎊👍

[@oldguyfirewood]

Hello Bob. Happy New Year!

[@megamike4357]

What size trailer is that, and do you pull it with a half ton?

[@oldguyfirewood]

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.

[@inthebackyardwithdel438]

Hey Mr Dick , nice load of cookies . No waste !!!👍🏻🪵🇺🇸

[@oldguyfirewood]

It’s great boiler wood Del. Happy New Year!
