IN THE WOODYARD - FREE TREE SERVICE WOOD... WHITE OAK!!

[@131dyana]

So fortunate to get all that white oak. God bless you both.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes it is great wood!

[@GregPrince-io1cb]

Chris, you're gonna havta figure out how pull all 4 of your trailers up to Jason's place in one trip!!! Eye could hear the tears in your voice on the chipper wood vs firewood!!! Darn near snorted my coffee out my nose!! Great show to you both!

[@InTheWoodyard]

He sells a butt load of chips for biomass so it is all good wood for a good purpose.

[@rickdesrochers7787]

Every log chipped brings a tear to my eyes......😂

[@InTheWoodyard]

He sells it all for biomass that is used for heat...just think of it as real small firewood.

[@davidedwards3734]

Beautiful white oak!! Glad you could spend time with your new BFF, Logger Jason!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, we have fun cutting stuff!

[@annmariekowalski7505]

Chris, this is one of my favorite videos. Trading a little sweat for some help. Jason, I no longer feel like the odd person out. All of my protective gear is yellow, too. My helmet will be yellow someday. Talk about threading the needle. Picking up the measuring stick with the tip of the grapple is impressive. Win win for everyone.

[@LoggerJason]

Thanks for noticing, I got a couple cases of hi vis yellow hard hats.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, Jason is a great operator!

1 hour. I’m putting this one on the tv in the shop and sharpen chains. Free white oak is like getting free gold to a wood hound.

Jason is not available for you, he is busy with me! Haaaa!

[@travisarndt2330]

@InTheWoodyard lolol you big meanie I just want a little bit of the table scraps

[@larryvankirk7423]

Nice video Chris. Jason didn’t tell you about having to work for the free wood. Apparently not much of a market for Ash saw logs. Like you I’m sure, hard to see the ash logs going to the chipper but no doubt that Jason knows his market and has to stay up with tree service logs coming into his yard. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

There is a market but it is flooded now.

[@waynetharp]

Jason could use some lessons from your Ash guy on loading a trailer! That guy packs em full and none of the criss-cross half load trips!😂 The first few loads you got from, Jason. He was so gentle in setting the logs in and now he is dropping them from 3-4 feet above the trailer. The trailer will soon be all beat up, broken suspension components,or bent doors, from free loads.🙄 Your trailers are your money makers and the last thing you want is to be pulling into some neighborhood for a delivery, with a trailer that looks like it lost a demolition derby.

[@InTheWoodyard]

No biggie, the price was right.

[@rileydevriendt]

Hi cris I have a question how do I start a firewood business in Mn do I need to get my firewood state approved and how would I do that or can I just bundle it and sell it from a few road side stands

[@InTheWoodyard]

Just put an add on Craigs list or Facebook marketplace and deliver wood!

[@BGWenterprises]

Minimum of 8 foot for any log going to the mill, thus why a number of those logs are getting chipped. . Over 8" on scaler end, few limbs-all under 1.5" is generally a sort for a more valuable mill log. . They have us cut to an odd foot and pay us for the next even foot down. So a 37 foot log is scaled as a 36 If we mess up and send one in a fraction under 36' 10" they scale it as a 34' log. Just the way it is..

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks for the info!!

[@obxkoastie8170]

Chris...Enjoy watching a pro work that grapple! Have you ever thought of making Jason an offer for all of the wood he is going to chip to instead deliver it to the woodyard? I'm sure what you pay for a trailer-load of wood is far more than he gets for biomass. That chipper can't be cheap to run. And handling the wood as much as he does versus loading a trailer one time might actually be financially beneficial to both of you. Just a thought!

[@InTheWoodyard]

You would be surprised on what he gets for the chips for biomass.

[@jameswilson9142]

Great movie

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks James!

[@HuckThis1971]

Loaded up as well!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup!

[@AttitudeAdjuster]

Super cool video, so what Easton Made is he running? and what does he use the Gasifier for? or Boiler? sorry from Australia where we have never seen a snow flake in our history LOL

[@LoggerJason]

The Eastonmade is a 12-22. The stove is pre gasification.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Jason has it below!

[@GregPrince-io1cb]

What's the big bright orange thing in the blue sky??? Haven't seen that since Thanksgiving!!!

I do not know.... it looks scary!

[@paddymac4545]

some of those look like they would be great saw logs. ever thought about getting a bandsaw mill?

[@InTheWoodyard]

He sells all the saw logs he can.

[@briannelson4493]

That’s the kind of wood pile a cutter could wear out a couple of saws getting through.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, lots of wood there!

[@mikehauser9385]

Can't he cut you a deal on some of that firewood logs? Some pretty nice ash there.

[@InTheWoodyard]

No reason to, he sells it all as biomass chips and I can get free ash.....a lot of it.

[@paulhoelscher6207]

I really do hope Chris that he is only kidding when he says he is going to put beautiful red oaks through a chipper! The only thing that should go into a chipper is junk wood.!!!😮

[@InTheWoodyard]

He makes the same amount as pulp wood or logs for lumber as he does for the chipped wood! No worries!

[@YusriGaidien]

Hey Chris, there a nice back round song from silent partner I recommend you playing in your videos sometime...the songs name is a new leaf...I don't if know about but I don't think I heard on your videos before...just a suggestion!🎼🎶🎵 SPACE WALK from Silent partner is also nice!🎆🌌

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@richardwarren9402]

I know I will probably get a lot of negative feedback back on this, but Chris I know you use chaps that are for safety in case the saw happens to cut your leg. I wonder how many that watch your videos have cut their leg because they were not wearing chaps. I cut my knee about 30 years ago, when the chain caught my jeans it ripped from my thigh to way below my knee, when I got my pants down the chain just cut across the top of my knee cap and didn’t get into any of my knee cap just the skin. Had to have stitches on top of knee cap, I was very lucky

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, you where very lucky... I know a few people who have cut there legs and had major injuries.

[@surreyarborist]

Can you find out what the Woodchip gets used for is it for biomass power generation or for something else.

[@LoggerJason]

Power and steam

[@InTheWoodyard]

Biomass heat and power.

[@ArchStanton833]

Sounds of loaded those cookie into ur trailer for burt to burn. Ad long as u were there and hand a trailer and bed with room.

[@InTheWoodyard]

We do not need more cookies. Just logs for firewood to sell.

[@VK-ds2dw]

What does Jason use the wood chips for? Does he sell them after and for what purpose? Your woodyard is a tad bit more organized then his 😆

[@InTheWoodyard]

He sells it for biomass heating. He gets 3-5 loads a day every day from tree service companies and logs almost every day...lots in and lots out every day!

[@redink71]

I remember in one vid Jason stated that some wood he kept so long it started to rot in the yard. It looks like he is busting out the elbow grease because there is alot less wood around now! Its amazing how good he is with that grapple. that saw was the chain dull? or a small saw? or was the log just bigger than it looks? or all three?

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, he has been a busy boy! Yes, I hit dirt!!!

[@asamelia5124]

Is there sycamore trees in Wisconsin?

[@InTheWoodyard]

Not that I know of???

[@thomaspetersen7461]

So what happens when saw mill ex Ray logs rejected due metal in wood.?

[@InTheWoodyard]

A lot of it goes for cheap firewood then.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Ha...an old moldy bag of soft oatmeal is not much help!

[@larrymartensmartens1044]

Chris, I have a stihl ms 261 chainsaw, what's yours recommendation on the biggest saw to invest in for larger trees?

[@InTheWoodyard]

If you are a Stihl person...a 462 or a 500 would be nice but a 661 is bigger and better for big stuff.

[@iffykidmn8170]

261 is one of my favorite 50cc saws for limbing and cutting smaller wood 10" dia, depends on your definition of larger trees as Chris recommended below all great choices really hard to beat a 70cc saw for an all-around saw. I seldom grab a 90cc saw unless bucking a steady supply of wood 20-24" and up as the added weight is not worth it for me. Remember the correct number of saws is more and more choices find a new BF and try their saws first if possible.

[@iffykidmn8170]

I believe in the above video they are running 365-372 and 572 Huskies are you cutting bigger wood? do you need want better performance?

[@thomasworatschka6860]

What kind of saws does he have and what size

[@InTheWoodyard]

He has a bunch of saws..Husqvarna saws 395 372 572...

[@HuckThis1971]

What length? 8'6"?

[@InTheWoodyard]

Usually the logs are cut to 100" so 8'4" is standard.

[@redink71]

his cash crop is chipper wood. So everything is chipper wood because of constant demand. For Chris his cash crop is fire wood. So everything is fire wood because of constant demand.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, you are correct!
