    Who likes stacking firewood?

    March 3, 2023 /

    We do! It’s great exercise. Outdoors in the fresh air on a cool day with a bit of a breeze, which is almost every day between September and April.

    Reading the moisture content

    February 28, 2023 /

    All is not what it seems when it comes to measuring the moisture content in firewood. A live tree such as birch hardwood that is cut fresh off the stump, (aka ‘green’) then split and stacked, should have a very high moisture content.

    New 5-way splitter axe design

    May 29, 2022 /

    I put some thought into a way to handle smaller pieces of firewood, 6 inches in diameter or smaller, so that the pieces will pass through the splitter trough whole (not split). This video is the initial test run of that new design.

    Saturday road trip! We have a new client for our kiln dried firewood and they live in an area of the province that we have never been to before. It’s the middle of winter in Nova Scotia, what could go wrong? Well nothing does, actually quite the opposite.

    January 31, 2021 /

    Throughout the winter we re-supply the house firewood. When everything is working, it’s a smooth process. No heavy snow, no ice and a skidsteer that starts. Makes for easier work for sure.

    We’ve been steady through the season selling hardwood and softwood firewood. Along with ourselves, the skid steer and the grapple attachment have been working hard to bring logs to the log deck. We all need a little maintenance now and again, and machines are no exception.

    Yesterday I loaded 2 cords of mixed hardwood into the kiln, around 3pm. Then I turned on the kiln to bring up the temperature so that the dehumidifier can start its job of drawing water from the maple, birch, ash and beech wood.
