A tree fell earlier this year at Walt and Dena’s place and they let us come and get the wood in exchange for help in getting it cut up and cleared out.
So we hitched up the trailer and headed to Toledo to get some firewood for next winter. It’s amazing how much wood you burn when you don’t use the furnace!
it seems like everyone had a chainsaw
Zack got to drive the quad and trailer to take the wood back to the van after it was cut
the big job was to get this bad boy down without it rolling back on the cutter
they tied the log to another tree to keep it from rolling the other way. And it was a good thing they used two straps because ours broke when the tree was cut through!
it was a pretty big and gnarly tree and we dulled a few chains and still aren’t done
Will made a wedge to help out and it worked great!
Now we just have to get it split and into the woodshed…
