evan9381 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 yep...craigslist. i got mine from i think "scenic seitz" or something like that. he came and dropped off 1/2 cord for $100. i think it was like $140 for a full cord. craigslist does have people selling all the time. youll get what you pay for. if its cheap, probably gonna get soft wood.

KillJoy Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 enough to last me the whole winter usually. You must have a HIGHLY efficient burner, or a VERY well insulated home! Or very small home :thumbup: KillJoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koolrayz Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 screw paying for wood. my father cuts/hauls/splits/and stacks it himeself. he uses a maul, not a splitter. Here is what I just finished this afternoon. Its mostly oak with a little maple. I need to get a good hickory tree next, stuff burns like iron but it weighs a ton and splits hard. http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC08351.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koolrayz Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 You keep your firewood inside? Aren't you worried about bugs n stuff? KillJoy It hasnt been a problem in years past. This is the most I keep at one time. That will last me about a month. I cut right at my house so I usualy cut smaller amounts but at least once a week. Still have to cut for the shop and I keep an unsplit pile under tarp behind the shop for backup that needs to be built up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
