I dabble in firewood,boy,that's a big subject and there sure is a lot to learn.It is more of a hobby for me,I started out with a maul,sold 3 or 4 cord a year besides my own.Then I bought a used splitter ,kinda got ripped off,so I splurged and bought a Timberwolf TW6.Made in Vermont.Big bucks,plus associated costs bringing it into Canada. I can split close to a cord of blocked wood an hour by myself.By the way,I turned 61 today.The big problem is clearing away the split wood.I've got an old 20' New Idea hay or grain conveyor I'll likely try out.Firewood conveyors are just too pricy right now. So you can see it's all about equipment.I also have a 1982 Ford one ton with 11' tipping flatdeck that I put sides on.I stack my wood off the ground in one cord(4x4x8) stacks.I enjoy it. After a year of seasoning I sell it,backing my one ton into the pile and throwing it in. $200-$220 a cord of fir,delivered.Over the course of last winter I sold it all,about 24 cords. That's all I had time for as I'm still a working stiff.I had absolutely no problem selling it,mostly within a 3 mile circle.And with my fantastic splitter I can split small(3"to 5") no problem which a lot of folks like since they don't have to resplit.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
