FIREWOOD: SELLING UN-SPLIT ROUNDS!

Once in a while I sell firewood that is not split or dried in big rounds and today it happens!

[@bwillan]

It would be interesting for the customer's son to shoot a video of splitting the elm rounds.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe next time I can arrange a play day to do so???

[@Andrew_From_NB]

Fun vid an nice work today Chris! He will certainly have fun splitting the elm! 🔥💯👍🤜🤛. Always enjoy my visit to the channel!🔥💯👍. See you soon! Andrew from NB :)

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks!

[@annmariekowalski7505]

Instead of flipping tractor tires, he could flip elm rounds. Nice sharing and helping the young man do functional fitness. I worked with people who could only lift something from the gym. They were not able to transfer the mechanics of being a weightlifter to actual work. Please remember all The Gold Star Families on this special day. Oh I got something free from Chris. I grifted some jerky and maple syrup. We both loved it.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes today is a day to remember and honor all who gave all.

[@michaelmullins1290]

The customers son has been watching Tom Havilland. Hes a monster. Does alot of unconventional work outs. Ill always appreciate your, give more , attitude. That's what got me here.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe so! Thanks for watching...I believe in giving a lot before asking for a little.

[@davidedwards3734]

While loading those rounds, your evil laugh about splitting them was quite apparent!!! Nice load of split wood. Jerry is always a Great payment!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@InTheWoodyard]

He will learn and grow with the elm!

[@woolval52]

You hurt my back lifting that elm. LOL, I hope his son is younger than me! He sure will get a good workout... A neighbor brought over two huge tree trunks, about 3 feet diameter and 8 feet long, I've got my work cut out for me! Thanks again for another inspiring video!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Just keep cutting!

[@iffykidmn8170]

Good morning! The sadistic Elm snicker at 3:05 was the best.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Morning! He want exercise so I obliged.

[@cliffjenkins6419]

Going out of your way for that young fella speaks volumes about you Chris. He must be a good young man to want to split wood for his mum, and good on you mate for going the extra mile. Cheers from HB NZ

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks, I admire people with goals and work ethics...especially kids!

[@toddpacheco4748]

Chris,another excellent video always a great 👍 pleasure watching your videos 😮😊❤

[@InTheWoodyard]

Glad you like them!

[@Dan-k3i]

I'm a little ways South of you in Lodi, WI. If you've heard of it. I split and sell wood, mainly just as a hobby, but it also helps pay the bills. You've got the best wood splitting channel on KZbin

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, thanks for watching from "down south" just north of Madtown!!

[@Dan-k3i]

@@InTheWoodyard I live right on Crystal Lake, there's been many times I've split wood on the ice during winter, and I've been known to put some tip ups out and catch a few fish, while splitting wood. I think that wood make an awesome video. Pending ice conditions. Plenty of dead wood on the lake since we've experienced a lot of flooding lately.

[@budcanter9747]

Oh my back after watching you lift and toss those rounds!🫨🇺🇸

[@InTheWoodyard]

Sorry, mine is fine because I use it....it will not rust out.

[@rexcamp261]

Lol I think I've heard this story about three or four times! Lol that's funny!

[@InTheWoodyard]

It is the second time I sold him rounds so 2 for me.

[@rickthelian2215]

Yes I remember from last year😊 Cool I’d like to see Tony again 😊

[@InTheWoodyard]

Tony was on a little over a week ago and will be on in a few more days again.

[@patrickmeyer9419]

That evil, knowing laugh loading up that elm. Hahahaha....you know what you're doing and I hope you can sleep at night😂😂😂😂

[@InTheWoodyard]

His dad told me some "big hard stuff" so I obliged!

[@timhiggins4259]

I want a baby dumper trailer! I love that there is a kid that digs splitting wood.

[@InTheWoodyard]

You can get one at THUMB TRAILERS in Sandusky Michigan!

[@danacampbell-vu2ut]

When I was still in high school, the summer before my senior year, I hand split a huge pine tree around 30" in diameter. I used wedges and an 8# sledge. It was a real good work. 👍❤️📹😃💪

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yyup, probably made you a man right there!

[@toddsoutsideagain]

Good stuff Chris. I love a good barter! 👍🏻👍🏻GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Me too! Thanks!

[@dwaynedee529]

Chris it's amazing how you explain the What's and Why's. Hope that 12 yr old is ready for Elm. String6, dense and hard.. Elm fights back

[@InTheWoodyard]

He can do it...he is bigger than me!

[@granttunbridge3412]

Its so nice to see you go out of your way to provide some rounds for the young man to split. You're a thoroughly decent man.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks.

[@Jessicayang-kc6ii]

Good morning dear, I like your video.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Good morning Thanks!!

[@markdyballuk]

what a pal you are to your customers. great video Chris

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks 👍

[@kennethtibbitts414]

that is an evil laugh CHRIS

[@GregPrince-io1cb]

I thought the same thing Ken.... Satan's wood will do that to you!! hehehehe

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

Haha. I was thinking the same thing 😂

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, elm(satan) wood will do that to you!

[@InTheWoodyard]

YES!!!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

I have some ginormous maple the kid can have. Will keep him out of trouble most of the summer. Those rounds are that big.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, I believe it, some of those soft maple trees get HUGE!

[@tenlow2]

So first off, I’m glad you didn’t get mad over what I said about the face cord vs full cord, I did not have malice behind what I said, I just said it stupidly. Most of my firewood came from my parent’s property, but the rest has come from a local tree service who has bent over backwards making sure I am happy with my haul. I have no splitter so I just keep hitting the same spot over and over again and eventually it does the thing.

[@InTheWoodyard]

No worries, there is just a big riff between the 1/3 cord crowd and the face cord crowd and the "what the heck is a cord" crowd. And I have to constantly explain the words, use and meaning so it gets old. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@timrydman-mr5hp]

Those rounds will test his strength and will power.

[@InTheWoodyard]

I sure hope so!

[@danbentsen]

Another good watch. Unusual wood order. I dont like Elm-Low BTU, Tough to split, stringy, Kid is going to have a workout.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Elm is very average wood for heat but yes I call it satan wood.

[@outdoorsinthe608]

That jerky sure looks good!👍👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

It is that!

[@firefightingmailman]

More is the right amount! Have a great day.

[@InTheWoodyard]

More is my favorite number! thanks!

[@GlenKent-n8n]

The next time you find an enormous silver maple that has been standing in the middle of a field… I think it is great you sent him a good variety of species. It just might give him a few blisters.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, he will be tested!

[@briannelson4493]

@@InTheWoodyard Totally agree

[@Mainelywork]

🤘That was a nasty prank with the elm!

[@InTheWoodyard]

No, he WANTS exercise so I obliged.

[@treimo7073]

You gave the poor kid seasoned elm? Must have wanted to spend all year splitting! 😂

[@InTheWoodyard]

He is doing it for exercise and a challenge not for easiness. Most people most of the time avoid work and try to find an easier way...I admire people and this boy who welcome hard things.

[@sandsock]

You have a sponsor in the woodyard. Well done. Come on Husqvarna, it's time to step it up. He needs a nitrous saw.

[@InTheWoodyard]

No sponsor yet, just a bunch of free equipment...no complaints yet.

[@henryknox1186]

Only the best knotty wood

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, tough stuff!

[@larryvankirk7423]

Nice job Chris. Working harder is sometimes smarter. Heavy breathing and a strong constitution keeps the lazy fat away. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, lack of work kills.

[@coreyriley7160]

G’morning Chris. Great to give them what they want. By the way, do you ever miss/want to process a load of logs entirely by hand, the old school way? Stacking included. GoodNightIrene

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes and no. I want to but the time and effort to do so would probably not be worth it and my body might shut down in protest!

[@coreyriley7160]

I hear ya there. But the people would love the old format !!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, that is what he wanted so I obliged.

[@jasonrodenbaugh8374]

Hey Chris I am in the market for a new wood splitter. I was wondering how much wood per hour can you split a cod with the ultra. How much faster is it with two people? I got a 33 ton huskee and I am getting a cord every hour and a half.

[@InTheWoodyard]

The cycle time on the ultra is 4 seconds so it is as fast as 2-3 people can go, it is usually waiting for us! I never did a timed teat but with close, good wood and 3 guys I think that 3 full cords an hour would be easy...maybe more.

[@jasonrodenbaugh8374]

Thank you for the info! Really hoping to get one this fall or spring.

[@saltrock9642]

I’m worn out watching ya. 💪

[@InTheWoodyard]

Sorry, maybe tomorrow we can just lay on a blanket in a field of flowers and talk about my favorite ice cream flavor, kinda like a media interview with a politician they like...all soft and fuzzy! haaa!
