[@danpatch4751]

As long as your rakers are normal should work fine.😊

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Yeah they are set a little aggressive on this saw.

[@NeighborlyHomestead]

Sweet idea all around! My son loved watching this! Something for us to think about when we get through the bags we have! That little blower is cool! - Tim

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Tim, glad he liked it! That little blower definitely comes in handy.

[@TCsOutdoors1]

$50 for all that kindling is a steal for sure 👍🏻 You can’t beat a ported chainsaw, the Makita sounds like a beast! Thanks for the shout out brother I appreciate it!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Tony, that saw is a beast for sure! Thanks.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

I’m perdy competitive Heath but you got me on this that’s way faster than the way I was making it . Finding it already dryed for that kinda $ is one heck of a score . I’m still sitting on a few full cords of kindling it definitely didn’t sell very good for us . The amount of profit in kindling is crazy just gota have a good market to sell it . Great video you guys .

[@donmcgimpsey1706]

@AllenFamilyFirewood great idea with the meat wrapper for your operation Phil, if the market kicks in

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, it definitely makes short work of it!

[@billobermeyer660]

Very nice process for the kindling!! The tape dispenser is the real deal for completing the process!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Yes it is, so fast and easy!

[@davidedwards3734]

Great video!! The tools to help make kindling seemed very efficient!! I like the hand held blower for quick clean up!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks David, the blower does come in handy!

[@toddsoutsideagain]

Love the idea on the sawmill scraps! I use the same produce/ seafood bags I would suggest cutting that kindling to 12” and you will have more bag left to tie👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Todd, we’re definitely going to do that. We’ll use the longer sticks in our bundles.

[@Threegreenacresfirewood]

Excellent pick up of wood Heath , make some cash there. I gotta get me one of them little blowers. Excellent video.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, the blower is slick!

[@timpeem]

I do this same thing. If you use a rachet strap around the wood in a few spots it holds the wood together and you don't get it jumping around as much and alot safer.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, I am going to do that for the next bundle.

[@scottw.2450]

Great find there!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Scott.

[@toddpacheco4748]

Looks like 👍 while the wife is out of town Heath is going out of bounds with getting another deal but it looks like he will be able to get a lot of money back 😮😊❤

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Haha for sure Todd!

[@stephenreiner1523]

Don't worry Rachel, Heath took a course in turf management while you were gone. Always great to see you two.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

I’ll get it fixed up! Thanks Stephen!

[@DaveDunehew-e1f]

HWM, what if you throw a couple ratchet straps around your bundle before you cut it up with a chainsaw. It might save your saw from kicking you in the face. Great video, TY for sharing. Dave D from Maine.

[@BGWenterprises]

Knowing that comes off are sawmill. Having it bark free, dry, and around the size of a 1x2 is very key to the equation. Of helping turn a decent profit. . The slabs off are mill are largely the sap wood and bark, and its amazingly heavy stuff. The water content of heart versus sap wood in fir is very big. . We use a ol crawler/loader to move the bundles as they can be several ton each, when its longer material. 16 foot and longer we cut'em in half, as a 16 bundle has the back end very light of the ol loader. . We put 2 bands around each bundle, about 20" apart from each other, so that a person can cut it from each end. And the last cut has a band on each side, to control the wood as much as possible.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, I’m definitely going to band them next time.

[@inthebackyardwithdel438]

I use the same bags for my kindling . That tape dispenser is awesome .

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Del, it works great!

[@adirondackwoodsman]

Great video guys! Love the blower and process. I’ve thought about using my Woodmizer to make some of those strips.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Jeff, it’s quick and easy.

[@TwinCityFirewood]

Very clever Heath! I like y’all’s style!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, it should keep us stocked in kindling for quite a while!

[@On_The_Farm]

Hey Heath, perhaps try sawing the bundles while they are still strapped. May work easier.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

That was the plan but they weighed too much to pick up. I think I’ll ratchet strap them and try.

[@victorshewen2676]

You didn't factor how much Rachel gets paid❤ love the videos you two!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

She gets it all lol. Thanks.

[@danshouseofsmokeandoutdoor7119]

Nice sometime can get slab wood for free here. Who don’t need a blower in there tool box 😂. Keep up the good work.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Dan, that blower is slick!

[@TheYeti308]

I have been splitting Big straight grained soft wood into 1 " boards and take it from there . Would not mind having access to good bundles like those , save a bit of time . Nice . !

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

It definitely makes it fast and easy!

[@ClickinChicken]

I just scored two boxes of birch bark (same thing), helping neighbor stack logs, drag brush, rake! Like Dad would say, 'Like Butta'.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

For sure!!

[@ronbrooks6681]

Nice going Heath, and Rachel. That is wonderful for Kindling Wood. I like that Blower, very Portable and you can take it anywhere. I am Small for Now but am considering a Roadside Stand for Next Year. I do mostly Oak, Red& White. Lots of Locust ( Which Stinks) but burns real Good. Keep up the Great Videos my Friends, if I get around to it and not to Sore tomorrow night join in on Friday Night Live with Dan. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Ron, we aren’t huge ourselves but we have fun doing it and earning extra money!

[@heymakerphd1982]

Ya worry me son. I've seen guys cut thru whole bundles at once, but they use a sort of V-frame that holds the wood a little steadier. That grapple is the cat's meow!! You're doin' good!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, I’m going to ratchet strap them next time to hold them tighter.

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

Neat idea. Easy to do 👍🏻 I knew you were getting a new tractor. But never seen a video on it. Neat blower tool. 👍🏻

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Noel!

[@OpenAirAdventure]

Ya got it figured out Heath

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Kenny!

[@LoggerJason]

like the way you cut them with the grapple, I am going to look into doing kindling bags instead of shrink wrap the same size as a .75 cbft bundle. Great idea, We do around 1000 bundles a year with a chop saw.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Jason, I think it will work even better if I put a ratchet strap every few feet to keep the bundle tighter.

[@donmcgimpsey1706]

Great job - I know hindsight is 20/20 but maybe put a box under the kindling before cutting? Or a tarp? Anyway, just a polite comment - you do you!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Definitely going to try something like that next time, thanks. It’s a lot to pick up in a hurry!

[@buckinfirewood]

Well you made that look easy...

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks!

[@outdoorsinthe608]

Great idea!👍👍

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thank, I think it’ll work out pretty well. I did it once before with a much smaller quantity and people liked it.

[@VicsYard]

That blower is kinda cool.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

It definitely comes in handy!

[@Videogamerforlife69]

I been looking for wood like that for years for my firewood stand, but guys want $40-100 per bundle like that and everything is like a hour each way around here, so its a lot of work for not much profit, but I know they would sell good

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

People do seem to like them! I’ve done this before but lost my connection. I was glad to find this load!

[@bentwedgestanleybrand5818]

Maybe for the bungee cord around to hold your cut off together. Just thinking out loud

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, going to figure something out.

[@johnwoody4905]

good video and job. hope you have better luck selling it than Phil and Karen. there is no market here TSC have a half a pallet of rotted bundle wood here. that was fastDolmar is a beast. take care, be safe and well.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

It’s mainly an added bonus for wood buyers for us

[@amandadavis9726]

That is a ton of kindling in no time. I was just thinking if there was some way that you could cut that kindling over the top of an open IBC bladder. That way it’ll all fall into one organized container. Plus, you’ll save a lot of time by not having to pick it up off the ground.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

I was thinking the same thing after having it all on the ground like that.

[@fricknjeep]

hi there been doing that for years . but just put it into old milk greats , i like how and and the way you do it , looks faster and better , but dont sell wood , well done fricknjeep aproved , best to all john

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks John! You have the ultimate source with your own mill!

[@RolandJohnson-v6x]

try putting a ratchet strap around the middle of each 16 inches before cutting.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

I think I’ll try that next time. It definitely cut easier the closer to the grapple I got.

[@clarencedobsonjr.2585]

Does your ground ever dry up. Half hour after rain it is dry here in Central Michigan. Heath you are always trying something new. Keep it up

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

It doesn’t seem to this year, we’ve had a ton of rain! Our soil has a lot of clay too.

[@clarencedobsonjr.2585]

@@hardworkingmanoutdoors ours sand

[@fricknjeep]

hi made a machine to cut them many years ago , go look at # 102 and 103 , john

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

John, I watched that one before! A nice build for sure. The Samurai should work well too but the chainsaw and grapple make short work of them!

[@jameschandler2776]

That made a lot of kindling fast. I don't think you got hurt at $10 a bundle. That is cheap and easy kindling as long as you have a tractor and grapple. Phil cuts his kindling 12" and it fits in the bag easier

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks, I’m definitely cutting the next batch shorter!

[@bentwedgestanleybrand5818]

I think you should have put a tarp down to catch all the cut off

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

For sure.

[@jon51]

Any chance you can tell us what size pvc pipe that was used?

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Yes sir. It is a 6” pipe.

Hello everyone

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Hello!

[@stephenreiner1523]

Sounds like a plan.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Thanks Stephen!

[@KNLFirewood]

Saw = sore 😂.

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Yes it does! 😂

[@jimmieburleigh9549]

Personally if I have my choice making kindling I rather go 12 inches.. alot of times I cut a 16 inch round in half so 8 inches is good kindling. That stuff I'd probably at least go 12 to fit the bags better when it's stuffed tight. As always no offense just my observations and experiences...

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

You are 100% correct. We are going to make the kindling for bags smaller and use the 16” pieces to round out our bundles!

Just listen to you talking smack about 500i's when I'll be getting one next week to finally try to catch up on my wood yard

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

lol, they are a great saw. I just know some of those guys are sensitive lol. I finally ran one and they’re a fast cutting saw for sure. You’ll love it.

[@dch923ster]

@hardworkingmanoutdoors my biggest reason for wanting one is where I live I'm at a high altitude in a desert climate that radically changes and makes carburetors finicky

That is a lot of kindling fast. Good score getting those bundles for just $10. I bet you have $2500 worth of kindling on that trailer minus a tire 🛞

Hi Heath and Rachel, I like the new tractor. How close is your Kioti dealer? 🔥🪵

Thanks Mike, they are about 20 miles away. He’s the oldest Kioti dealer in Michigan.
