GIANT OAK logs cut for firewood

[@mattleb7335]

I’ve found that the only way I’ve been able to get the chains on without too many adjustments, is by lowering tire pressure when installing and adding air pressure once installed. Keeps everything tight.

Yup, good idea, we where out in the wood yard, no compressor!

A big job well done fellas. I think the boys and the toys were sweating on that one. In the beginning of the video i was thinking you guys needed hockey sticks and labatt blue.

[@briannelson4493]

Chris that’s what I’m talking about ,big wood . The kind you use your pallet forks to lift up on to the splitter. They yield a lot of split pieces. And gives your chainsaw a chance to prove it’s self .happy cutting Chris and Ken. My mother had a picture taken in 1920 ,in Chippewa falls Wi ,the guy was standing at the cut end of the tree. The log was about 3ft over his head. Yikes ,keep on cutting

Cool, that sounds like a nice piece of wood!

[@waynetharp]

WoW! You two are absolutely Animals!😮 This is definitely where these 2 saws shine and like I said before "They have the power to cut sharp or dull!" I really liked the camera shot where your feet disappeared in the saw dust,Chris! I have a 6" spade bit that I use on a 3/4 hammer drill for chipping up old floor tile. It would have been the ticket for frozen mud n rock removal on these logs! Thanks for a great video, Kenny n Chris! 👍👍

[@bluefj-wc3vz]

I have a Deere as well and when i go to chain up i let the air out of tires. I can get it tighter then work it even as it fills back up.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Good idea!

[@megamike4357]

If I may make a suggestion, and if you don't take it I could care less. If the next round of wood is dirty like that. Get a carbide chain. They are expensive, but you don't have to stop and sharpen. They will cut a little slower, and loosen more. I had cut a lot of wood from a flooded river, mainly ash. The wood was covered in sand, rocks, weeds , and other crap. Once I went to carbide my production almost doubled. No need to use the ax to peel muddy bark away. Just trying to save you some extra work. Have a good day!

[@kennethcarlson8713]

I normally would not even cut that would until summertime because there's been setting a couple years apart falls off but because of the ice the bark is froze on and we just had to get out of

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Corey, we had fun....again!

[@philgriswold2133]

I'm guessing about 60-80 splits per 16' piece. Also, about a cord in each log. If they're 4x4x8 solid, when they're split, they will fluff up and make a 4x4x8 stack. Of course, I may be way off.

Saws are $1000 and $1100 not much difference price, front vs side adjust.

Good morning Chris and Kenny!!😀😀 There sure was a lot of work to buck them up and they are only half done. Your 592 should be getting broken in after all those big cuts. It's really a good way to find out if it's going to last or not. I see very little difference between the 592 and the 395 . It would have been fun to have been there with my 660's and did a little comparison while helping you out. All the dirt that was on them had to of really sucked. I'm sure you guys did a lot of chopping off camera that we didn't see. You guys sounded pretty tired at the end of the video. Take care my friends!!😀😀 Logger Al

Tire chains are such a pain in the dong, that I decided long ago- if the roads are bad enough to require chains- I'm not driving. I went to my favorite honey hole yesterday to clean up the rest of the old maple logs still solid enough to use- and discovered that it is now FULL of giant chunks of tree service wood. Much of it at least as big as what you have here! There's even some silver maple that's 5' in diameter!!! There's at least a dozen or so entire yard monster trees here- all silver maple or honey locust. They chipped anything 6" or less, then dumped the rest here. One of the maintenance guys told me that my other go to spot is ALSO full with just as much. Me and my 16" bar are feeling a bit outclassed! Plenty of 6-12" logs, too. YEARS worth of good firewood- for free. I'm kinda looking forward to trying out different techniques to see just how big a log I can cut with that bar.

[@InTheWoodyard]

My advice is to get a 70cc or bigger saw and a 24" bar as soon as you can, you will be glad you did!

[@pyroman6000]

@@InTheWoodyard Believe it or not, I'm actually looking to get a top handle "baby" saw next, lol. The one I have is awkward to use for the trimming and ripping jobs around the yard, because the power unit itself is quite long. It also has a tendency to fling individual pieces around, unless you pinch them against the dogs- making it difficult to complete the cut. I love that little saw John (fricknjeep) has- it looks perfect for me! Probably a Stihl, because I have a local mom n pop dealer that also works on them. I'm just cutting for me, for my grill and campfires, so I can just ignore anything my saw can't handle, lol.

Don't know why you guys don't have a big block saw ( 084 stihl ) for big wood so you can cut in one pass. Then you dont have to run around & all over your log to get through , maby Husky makes a big saw that will get through in 1 pass.

Because we do not cut a lot of it up to now. Are saws are a 395 and a 592 , plenty big and 24" bars so we have to cut both sides, no big deal.

@@InTheWoodyard Looking to upgrade from 70cc and 20" was considering 592 or 395 with 28" how well do you think they would pull a 28" in that kind of wood? I never liked the way my 70cc pulled a 24" b&c in hardwood.
