Constant improvement is what the firewood business is all about. Learning from other content creators, viewers, and firewood cutters is what it’s all about. I took an Ibc tote stacking and dumping method I saw on ‪@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans‬ that Mike learned from a viewer comment as well as an idea from both Mike M. and Mike from ‪@KNLFirewood‬ and I adapted it to fit my needs and style. I feel that with these slight improvements over what I saw this may be the best set up yet for utilizing Ibc totes for firewood. What do you think? I know John ‪@fricknjeep‬ has a lot of great ideas but I don’t even think he has tried this! Maybe I’m wrong, maybe it’s been done before and I just haven’t seen it, maybe it will fail, but here it is. My take on the open front Ibc tote for firewood. How to make them, how to modify your old totes to work in this manner, and a few other tips and tricks. Let me know what you think and thank you to all of the viewers, content creators, and friends who make all of this possible!! Also Brad from ‪@FirewoodattheFurnace‬ I know your contemplating totes, what do you think about this modification? Andrew from ‪@EastonmadeWoodSplitters‬ yet another great idea you didn’t even know you had but those removable safety chains are awesome!
Here is a link to the boot dryer we showed, a must have a

Hey buddy I like the idea. Curious how the very front top of the tote will hold up over time. May still get some bending but I like having the bar out of the way. I had even thought about cutting the front bar off, getting a piece of angle and drilling holes in it with wing nuts to re attach it in the same place after you load it. Constant trials and improvements. I think your on to something!

Thanks Brad, I thought about a few different options too but I think this way will keep it sturdy enough to hold up. Just got off the phone with John FrickNJeep and he brought up a good point. Throw a ratchet strap on for transporting to help secure the wood and sturdy the tote while moving over rough terrain but won’t need to leave it there while seasoning loading etc.

By the time you buy these totes and modify them: you would be better off to collect some square steel tubing and build some baskets that will not bend. I have 50 of them and probably have less than $10 invested in each. Each one holds a firewood cord.

Liking this tote design - just got a new one today and converted it over. Very nice. One thing that I noticed on mine is that the bars to hold the plastic tank in are mounted in about the right spot so I used the same bolts on there with some Loctite.(Cheap Scot didn't even need to buy bolts!) Thanks for the great video!

PROBLEM IS, now it makes it extremely difficult to place the plastic bladder lid over the wood for drying. REMEDY….what we have found to be the best work around for that upper metal rail it the heavy duty, commercial grade black bungee straps with metal hooks. It’s a DREAM come true.

You should try and see how much you can free dump instead of stacking. Only negative to that bar is you can't stack your totes now. What I suggested to Mike on outdoors with the Morgan's is cut that top bar and instead of cutting flush leave about a inch and a half mash those flat and drill a hole then bolt a length of cheap dog chain you know that stuff that looks like twisted wire links add a cheap leash hook to one of the ends that you normally see with that chain even if you have to bolt it or a few wraps of bailing wire and twist it or a big hog clamp that's used to make cages etc what ever it takes meet in middle and hook. Or bolt one longer chain with the hook to one end and hook the other side. You can skip the bar if you want to stack or do both for extra support. Plus depending on the totes you get there is a cross bar that's perfect for that you have to remove to remove bladder that can be put back...

Jimmie, that may work too. I still have in cut totes that we use to toss chunks in and to fill with the conveyor. I’ll keep a mix of both styles on hand. So many different ways to go about it, this is just one way.

Hiya Heath, watched Johns (FrikinJeep) channel, and he seems like a rock solid ole boy! Right, his original idea, by fixing bars parallel is good. Do just as he did, then get a piece of scrap bar/channel, 4” longer than the spread of your parallel bars. Drill a hole at each end big enough so that your new bar will loop onto your parallel bars. Then fix your two parallel bars down. You should then have a spreader bar that slides from front to back, always maintaining side support. When loading your tote slide the new bar to the back, and gradually slide it towards you as the tote fills up. That way your spreader bar is always supportive, but not an obstruction you can bang your head on. 😃 Len (Devon 🇬🇧)

So Heath , that looks like a great idea. I think it will be plenty strong. I stack my totes when full. The curved piece you mount at 18 inches would be in the way. Why not use one of the 2 rails that hold the bladders in place. That way you can use the same bolts that come with it and you don’t need to drill holes. If you don’t stack your totes , I think it will work great. I hate cutting the totes all up but really they would be no different than Phil and Karen’s pallets they build. I copied your alwood round container. I made mine out of lumber. It works awesome , it is 4x8 with one side angled to a 20 inch opening that drops onto my splitter. I am really surprised more people haven’t followed up making something like yours. One more thing if you decide to fill your totes loose keep that piece that’s cut out and just wire it in until you dump the tote.” I have some videos coming out showing how I process my logs , watch for it. Thanks Club Dora Outdoors and Firewood.

Thanks. I will keep some totes un cut for conveyor filling but we usually stack the wood coming off the Eastonmade Axis.

great idea. now you can pick up the "empty" totes with your forks from the top bar also. I was thinking about welding a hook on each fork at the right elevation so when you lift the basket, the hooks grabs one of the cross bars of the tote, kind of like a quick hitch does. It seems like the chains are super easy too!

Thank you. I’ve thought about that too especially since it’s tough to see the end of my forks at ground level because the hood of the tractor is in the way. I’ve also considered hooks but couldn’t figure out the best way to go about it.

I have often thought about creating a light good bucket out of a ibc-Toat. What you did is quite what I was thinking about.

@@hardworkingmanoutdoors I thought alternatively to not remove the front but change it into a hood I can open to the top. Like a trunk in a sedan. It would hold the sides tougether but still keep the ability to throw in wood lose. I thought as well about welding the front end loader link onto the rear of the IBC so I don’t have to handle it with the pallet fork and straps but easily pick it up like the bucket or the pallet forks. The linkage (I do have the Skid link) is about 50USD (40€). This would only one to modify because I can’t get a light goods bucket in the dimensions I require. But due to the fact I am about replacing my compact by a wheel loader this project is delayed.

Hello Heath, congratulations on reaching 10k subs. You’re both doing a great job of entertaining us woodhounds. As far as the IBC totes I love the fact that you’re constantly thinking about continuous improvement. I think that will work very well. I think I’d cut off the protruding bolts to avoid ripping your head open when loading wood into the totes. Overall great job !! Cheers Woody !!!

Nice! Love the safety chain idea!! Yes boot dryers are awesome! It's a bummer for me that I can't use totes for wood. My tractor can't lift that much and they're too expensive to only fill half way. Great video!!

Thanks Mark. Yeah I love the lift capacity of my tractor but being so big has a few drawbacks too. Tough to trailer around, maneuver in the woods and see the front end implements over the hood but love the power.
