The "all nighter" stove we have in the camp has a, frankly obnoxious, 13" max log length. It's hard to judge the size when cutting, hence the stick.
I've got a field full of white birch in the 6-8" diameter range. I usually cut them 8' long as that's where they start to get too skinny to be worth it and pile them by the garage. Cut to length later using the stick as a gauge. -Curt On Thursday, August 18, 2022 at 09:09:55 AM EDT, mitch--- via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: On 2022-08-18 09:02, Curt Raymond via Mercedes wrote: > > The axe handle is my measuring stick so I know the wood will fit in the > stove. Two reasons why my little Husky has a 16" bar: I use it for limbing and blocking up small stuff, and a relatively long bar gives more reach for limbing. It's my woods ruler. Can measure 16", and easily guestimate 18" or 20". _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
