Thanked: 2027Husqvarna x 2 here,I heated our last house for 25 yrs with wood (2 vermont castings stoves)
Mauls, wedges up the yinyang,great excercise for the young at heart,cut, split, stacked, stored 5 cords/year.
Than I built a 20 ton log splitter,that was fun made my back happy.

Oh my, that is hilarious. My wife stacks often but she is way smarter than a bull, not nearly as strong as one, and doesn't drink
She won't swing the 8.5 maul nor the smaller ax. But when we work as a team, it goes by much quicker. I will appreciate when the younguns are old enough to stack, transport, and even chop. I might get a log splitter when they are gone in another 20 or so years!

Problem I had was,I had to buy cordwood than split it all into stovewood,big differance.
Also both stoves had cat convertors so softwood of any kind was out of the question.
The best heating woods we have in our local as far as BTUs/cord are madrone,Almond,eucyliptus (SP)
You cannot split Euc, without a logsplitter,no way no how (real aussy euc)we have tons of it available.
Today heating with wood is not an option anymore here,10 yrs ago I could get 5 cord lots deliverd for 115/cord in july.
Now it runs 285.00
