The edifying value of a large amount of "trending" videos is negligible at best but mainly a time waster, white noise, purely a distraction from reality and in effect a neglect of one's life.

@@lloydprunier4415 they are super cool. I guess if a guy wanted to he could spend some time bending up some metal clasps as well. Yet those crates are super handy. I know I can get 100s of them local and do the same thing. The only problem is I do not have anything that can move them. Plus the new place does not have a fireplace right now. Not really a place to put one. Been thinking about adding in one of those forces air furnaces that you connect to your existing duct work. We have plans to build a new house and that is one idea I have is the forced air furnace. Yet I also am considering 3 seperate heat pumps for the split arrangement. Would super simple and it would break the large house in to zones and keep seperate air areas as well. We have even thought about mini wood stoves as well. Yet you still require a large draft and I really do not wish to push anything through my thick ceiling and penetration free roof. I do miss using a wood stove in all of the houses I owned and lived in before this one. This one right now is paid in full and I can live with out the firewood for now.

I really hope that this was sponsored by Forstman, Donn. If not then it should have been. Pretty much the ultimate endorsement for that piece of kit. Which, by the way, is brilliant. That splitter beak totally changes the dynamic of a guillotine splitter. I sense a typical Donn improvement on the feed side though... = ) Custom high level cradle for the material and a smooth sloped feeder trough would make your life much easier and your back grateful. Shame that things have come to having to put a permanent watermark on the screen throughout the video`s... yeah, I have noticed that blatant rip off channel... As always, I hope all is well with you and yours = )
