[@jessejones9830]

Oh I bet, appreciate you both,good job on the video

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

Nice clean strait oak gota love that . What you get out of it depends on what you consider a cord . If it’s split an stacked 128 cu ft I’m thinking 15-16 cord out of that 20 cord load . Sawdust cookies and shrinkage all adds up . Once it’s dry it’s gona shrink even more .

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

For sure, at least the cookies will fill the boiler for a bit! Should be fun!

[@Fowledcollective]

Free wood is the best wood, but for production logs is the way to go! I started off felling trees and out grew that real quick!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

This will definitely up our output and we can still mix in the free self sourced stuff.

[@markMac407]

Perhaps use a pallet bin similar to what Chris does. It'd be interesting to see how the oak dries versus totes. Would save money on totes too! The dyna would be able to conveyor directly into the bin. This is definitely intriguing!!!

[@DaleFarrish-Dalbet]

I have a Wallenstein processor with a conveyor attached. Trouble with the conveyor is that they are really meant to dump into trailers or totes and be moved away. A processor will build a pile pretty quickly and moving the processor is a time consumer. I put a 30 or 40' foot conveyor off my attached conveyor to get the splits away. I sometimes just use my tractor and push the splits away from the end of the conveyor and push into a tall pile with tractor. This means time out of the processor seat though. I also have another setup and dump into a dump trailer then move it away and dump. It all takes time so I like the longer conveyor and just make a tall stack. PS, I only deal in ash which dries very easily and I'm in a windy location.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, we’ll definitely have to figure something out. We are in the middle of woods too so we don’t get the wind or nearly as much sun so the bigger piles may not dry as well.

[@twowheelsbbq781]

I drove through earlier and seen that load. Holy cow that's a lot of wood.

That's the same company I got my oak from that you see behind my shop. 20 cords I paid 2500 last year. With the price of fuel I'd say you got a fair price.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Todd, it doesn’t look as nice as your load size wise but I’ll take it. Maybe we’ll have to swing by with the processor one day and run part of your pile through. We’ll trade some labor for some rust proofing lol.

[@edrurup8955]

I process logs with my Eastonmade 48C, I get on average 2.5 face cords (4'X8'X 16") of firewood from a loggers cord (4'X4'X8') of wood. There is a lot of slash that is generated from splitting with the 16 way box wedge but I bag that and sell it for kindling. We pay 100.00 per loggers cord 4'X4'X8', typically white ash and oak. Great video!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Awesome, thanks Ed!

[@DudeRanchDIY]

Nice load of logs there!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Jake!

[@kendriedger151]

It's a LOT of work to make money with firewood !!! On top of your cost of the logs you should probably add 30 percent for All the other costs of processing it ! Plus whatever cost if you deliver it as well ! Wood is fun...in most cases it should be treated as a hobby !😊 Oh yah...if you make money the government wants a slice of the pie as well !

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Oh for sure. I love doing it and the extra money we make is a bonus.

[@gerryspang5917]

That is an awesome truck driver, you can tell it’s not his first rodeo. It takes some practice to back up the truck and trailer like that. I agree with Chris. About your time getting the logs. Should be able to double your investment if not more. Cheers

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Gerry, I agree he was impressive with the grapple and backing up.

[@toddsoutsideagain]

[@jameschandler2776]

That is a lot of wood. I have been cutting and heating with wood since 1980. I started selling wood so I could afford good chainsaws and have owned about every major brand. I now use Echo's because Husky dealers let me down too many times. I have only bought logs once back in the 80's and it was $350 for a truck load without the back trailer.

[@MicahHughes-zv5zx]

The 80’s -Great times

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

I love my echo saws. Never owned a Husky.

[@MicahHughes-zv5zx]

Beautiful load there guys! Think when Logger John would bring Chris 14 cords it would net around 12 split- hoping you get 16+. Love that they support the Military 🇺🇸

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Micah, I was thinking 16-17. Definitely appreciate the military support.

[@adirondackwoodsman]

Nice load of logs Heath! I still have quite a bit to process from the driveway I put in last summer. It may be something I consider in the future. Looking forward to seeing them on the processor.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Jeff, it should keep us busy for a bit.

[@clubdoraoutdoorsandfirewood]

Hi you guys. I think you will get some where between 15-17 full cords of firewood. It can vary between 15-30 percent loss. The wood you got looked like a very nice clean and straight wood. See you at HFH.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Should be close.

[@EwenRoberts-o8o]

Lovely load of logs. We had 5 cord delivered week ago. 830 dollars in Canada our area. Not cheap. 2 years ago it was only 680. Put price up alot. Gas prices going up so they put it up. When it was cut and most of it split that,s what I got out of it. Packed it up to see if it was there. On your receipt paper they give you, it,s a number on it to equal the number of cords if you no what I mean. Ours said 10 something. I think they go by cubic feet. Perhaps where you live they don,t do that. I,m not up on figuring it out but let me no if you no how it goes. I should ask the guy. Looking forward to seeing it been processed. Take care.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, prices are definitely up! Yeah the receipt says 20 cord.

[@beancreekwoodworks]

Awesome deal guys. Had this same thought myself. Going to be very interested in the amount you can get from this. I've priced them in my area for no cheaper than 3k so sounds like you did alright. Scott...

Well Heath and Rachel,now it’s time to rock and roll with all that oak 😮😊❤

[@user-rayman11]

I started hustling my own logs, then went with tree service wood. For the last 15 years I’ve been buying double log trailer loads as you just did. I’m thinking you will never go back to harvesting your own wood. Takes to much time and effort. The time you save not harvesting your own wood you will be processing.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

It definitely shows how small the loads I pull really are in comparison. I enjoy getting my own but I definitely see more value in this so far.

[@jerrycollins5014]

I buy 10 cord loads. When cut & split, I get 22 IBC totes full. Not close to 10 finished cords

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

I know you lose some. Are you stacking into totes?

[@ClellWise]

Heath that will surely keep you and Rachel busy for a while, but I know you can't wait to get started. Just wanted to comment about oak firewood. Okay for starters, I am NOT a firewood expert. So I'm certain someone will correct when I misspeak but here goes. I grew up in the geographical region in Texas known as the Post Oak Savannah so you can readily guess what tree species is the dominant variety. From my recollections as a kid of course that's what we heated our house with in an oblong cast iron wood heater. And you are 100% correct. It has to WELL seasoned. Oak burns hot and clean. It forms large lump coals so it is great for cooking and/or smoking meats. No one would ever burned a conifer because of the pitch and the danger of creosote fires. Now obviously in the Pacific Northwest Douglas Fir is king as long as it is dry and WELL seasoned. We never dreamed of a firewood business because hydraulic splitters hadn't been invented yet. So it was all done by hand with axes and/or steel wedges and a sledgehammer. OK this is already too long. Look forward to see that log pile get processed.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

For sure, I love cooking with oak! We’ll be doing that this summer as well but with some already seasoned wood.

[@theforestpassage7344]

If you got 20 bush cords, it’ll probably come out to like 17 actual cords I believe. 2700\17= 158. So ya I think you could definitely at least double your money, maybe triple depending on your location

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, I was guessing around the same. If I get 17 cord I should triple my money here.

[@ClickinChicken]

You two will be my age by the time you get all that split! hahaha. Your friend Brian -0 MN .

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

[@bossgobbler2]

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

17 cord is my guess. Out of 20 cord. We buy 16 cord at a time. I figure we get 14 cord or so out of it. You’ll have fun doing that. 👍🏻👍🏻👋👋

One hell of a pile of wood

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

For sure Joe!

[@DaleFarrish-Dalbet]

Lots like nice processor wood. I cut my own logs so I haul them home from the bush by diameter. I have room to stack them in 4 different areas by diameter. This allows me to process them and not have to change 4 way and 6 way wedge or even adjust the height much. It really does save a lot of time and effort. I also use a 30 or 40' conveyor off the end of my processor's attached conveyor. I'm doing ash so I can make tall stacks and drying is not an issue. It'll be interesting to see how your oak is going to dry. With all those trees around you are going to get filled up quick. I think it might be worth it to advertise some green at a small reduced rate to get you some return right away but also free up some space. I keep a bunch of punky logs around to use as bunks under my good logs. Might be an idea to throw some punky ash logs down next time to save those dozen oak logs he had to put into the mud? I keep saying I'm going to mount a weight activated timer under my processor seat and see how much time I actually spend in the seat verses setting up, fueling, loading logs onto deck, clearing jambs and moving splits away. You need to get looking at farm sales for a grain or hay elevator and I'll send you videos on how to set it up.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks for the tips! I definitely have to add an elevator or two to the operation to help with efficiency. The trees will definitely slow down the drying process.

[@JasonLoudermilk]

You should yield 16 full cords beautiful processed firewood. The rest will be saw chips and cookies (boiler food).

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, the boiler will eat well!

[@LoggerJason]

Heath, if you get better than 50 face cords your doing well. We typically use 2.5 face cords to a cord. You should do a bit better, that truck looks like a fair load to be purchased. That operator is top notch. Coming from a logging background he has skills. Looks great would love to know what you get out of it.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Jason. They look like pretty nice logs overall and that operator was impressive for sure.

[@RedHeadEd615]

I have a little Hudson badger with the winch in feed. I’m really happy I get tree length and not the pulp size like you guys. It would take way too much time pulling the winch cable out every time you cut just a few cuts. But that’s some Beauty looking stuff!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

We could process faster with some 16’ logs but this will do pretty well on the Dyna. I definitely see your point with the winch infeed though.

That's a nice load of wood I wish you could find out around here Say my friend have a good day

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks!

[@robertpalumbo3153]

I think you'll do well with this load, they said the load was 20 cords! 2 Decks that are 24' in length X 8' in width X 8' high = 1,536 square feet each = 3,072 total / 128 = 24 cords. You should add 1/3 cord for every 2 cord split and stacked would add an additional 3.6 full cords added based on the 24 cord #. I'm going to say 27+ full cords. 20 Cords / $2,700 = $135 per cord delivered, not a bad price. If you sold it by the cord at $300 per cord = $8,100 less the purchase price = a profit of $5,100. At bundle rate there is 42 bundle of 16" wood per (1 cubic foot hand size pieces) bundles per 1/3 of a cord or 126 bundles per cord. Total load should produce 3,400 bundles at $7.00 = $ 23, 814 less cost = $21,114.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thank you for the info. I think we’ll do pretty well for sure. Already placed my order for a second load!

[@bendugas8632]

You definitely need a second load, I get 12 cords and I paid a lot more than what you mention, but I scaled the wood before he unloads usually I get half a cord on my side of the scale.

[@BGWenterprises]

I'm curious what his loaded gross was with the 11 axils. Having there gross lbs on the door is mandatory out west best i know as i see it on most all trucks. rather strange to me, not to see it.. Out west, 8 axils can allow for 105,500 GVW. A common chip truck configuration. Or a straight truck moving 30 to 40 foot logs. plus a pup trailer stuck on the back moving logs around 20 foot. Side ways log hauling out west is very rare..!! . For how we occasionally sell fire wood log loads. And loads of logs to the local sawmills. For a 6 axil truck with a 10,000lb loader there usually about 20 to 24 tons of cargo, at 88,000lb gross. Basically the one drop axil nullifys the additional loader lbs. Over a standard 80k log truck. It usually around 7 to 8 cords. With bunks set for 32 foot logs. . Ballparking the stack at 50 foot long, 8 foot deep, and 6 foot high i get 2,400 cubic feet. Or in cord terms 18.75 cords. I would say there 20 cord estimate is definitely in the ball park, as id say theres some where between 18 to 22 cord. . Thats my 0.01c estimate, LOL.

Oak is generally the best firewood, but not the best campfire wood.

$2,700 for 20 cord; If one sells at $330 a cord, that would be $6,600 (144% increase). Now let's say you take that $2,700 and invest in a bank CD at 5%...... I'll go with a truck load everytime! Just a little more work - lol

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

More work but more fun. Plus we sell for $450/cord for now but may be more by the time this is ready to go.

[@TheFirewoodHut]

@@hardworkingmanoutdoors $450 per cord... even BETTER!! 233% return on investment. I would get a couple more loads :)

Heath I wonder if your bride knows about the mini excavator with grapple that you have on order. It will make great quick work of the logs.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

lol, I wish Robert! She says no way!

The pile is quite high, may present a problem.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

It is quite hi but I should be able to work it with my tractor, it’s pretty big.

[@ClydeMessinger]

What is the length of the pile?

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Clyde it is almost 60’ long.

[@ClydeMessinger]

@@hardworkingmanoutdoors Thanks!

[@AquaSourceLLC]

looks like you need a mini 🤷‍♂

[@rachelpostma4505]

Shut your mouth

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

For sure it’s the next logical step.

[@maplelanefirewood]

I'm guessing 47 to 52 face cords from my experience

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks!

[@albyers5554]

what do you consider the best camp fire wood?

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

I like a mix of different types. Some soft maple, poplar, pine, or other nice flame throwing easy lighting wood mixed with some cherry, oak, or hickory for a longer lasting fire. Half the fun of a campfire is tending it and throwing more wood on as well as the aroma and flame it puts off.

Heath sky is high you can go over the hydro pole . If you buy 20 cords you should get 20 cords . The key in firewood 🪵 logs get big stuff Heath you can make out more firewood 🪵. Laugh went you see a logging truck full of logs 🪵, you say it a lot off wood and went it 16” or 20 “ it’s big wood . You with your DEMO processor should easy do two of them truck and trailer load in a day . Heath if not don’t quit your day job for sure . Chris own get 5 or 6 logger truck load , just a little guy sale face cord try to sound big on U tube . True logger work in cords , hey 👋 your look 👀 at logger truck and trailer in your yard now . 😊 sharpen all your chainsaw chain your going to need them sharp to make your job go faster buddy .

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Definitely not quitting my day job, waiting to retire from there. 16” seems to be about the sweet spot for the Dyna.
