Kitchen wood

[Admin]

Perfect weather for wood cutting today. Nice and breezy with cool dry air. Getting the wood for the old kitchen range put up. These are mostly limbs and small trees that don't get used in the big stove. Not much left on the ground when I'm done. The chopsaw works great for the small stuff. Won't be long and we'll be having small fires in the morning. Can't wait.

I've always enjoyed working firewood. Looks like you've got a good start on your kitchen wood JC ;D

Those are perfect size pieces of wood for the cook stove. I don't like pieces that are too big for ours. I don't think it will be too long before I'll be wanting to get a fire going in the mornings. Hey, maybe you can cut some for me too....

I love using the kitchen stove. That thing is always burning in the winter and usually heting water and cooking food at the same time. I do enjoy that part of winter.

[hanson65]

It is a miter saw or miter chop saw same thing its made for cutting all types of wood you can cut at angles and all of that fun stuff very handy tool! I tryed getting a pic on here for you but couldn't get it to work sorry!

JC..what wood do you typically burn up in your neck of the swamp? Some of that looks like ash...

Down here, the oaks dominate. Red, white, blackjack, bluejack and chinquapin mostly. I like blackjack personally since it burns nasty hot and I personally think it has a better odor than the others. Hickory comes in a close 2nd in popularity. Most people save it to smoke with tho.

I burn a lot of cherry cause the cherry trees have been dying off. I've seen this both in NH and here. I have tons of standing dead cherry on my acreage. I also burn a lot of maple, ash, and several birch varieties. I have very few oaks so I don't cut them.
In my workshop I burn mostly junk wood like pine, spruce and poplar. The kitchen stove has a small firebox so i mostly burn limbs and small trees. It enables me to utilize the small stuff that normally would be left behind and clog up the forest floor. My woods stay a lot cleaner with the small stock removed.
