Bucking & Splitting Hickory For Smoker Wood 🪵 #firewood #smoker
Переглядів 1,1 тис.День тому
I went back to the well of an older hickory log that I left in the woods to fulfill an order to one of my best customers who uses Hickory to smoke meats for his food truck. It worked out well and made up the full face cord I needed for him.

I May Have Hit The Firewood Jackpot?!? 🪵🎰
Hi Brandon. That spot should be great to sell bundles. How have you been. I haven’t watched hardly any videos all summer. Been really busy. Nice to get watching again. Take care bud.
Perfect
Take it all , take a spliter with you. Pallets and too much beer.
Wait... that was a cub cadet Yanmar wasn't it...at the campground?? I bet that stand does well for you. Those fc racks look like 608 racks. Glad you guys were safe. I was thinking about you!
Great video sir! I lived in Lake City when I was little! Loved it! -Brad
Thanks Brad. Thats really cool. I didn’t know you grew up in my neck of the woods. Most all of my mom’s family lived in Lake City, Briceville and New River.
@@McKameyFarms yes sir, mostly from Knoxville (Halls) but my dad was a banker and worked all over East Tennessee it seemed like! Went to first grade at Lake City Elementary when he worked at Bank of Oak Ridge branch there, haha. My most vivid memory is watching Star Wars in the theater when I lived there!
Another stand for the grow business. Nice work!
Thanks Bob. I’m hopeful that campers visiting don’t bring their own wood 🤣 It’s definitely a great spot and I hope to be refilling it in a regular basis 🤞🏻
Nice score Brandon, over time you might need more wood 😀, I live across from a trailer park, this year has been a struggle keeping up, I don’t have the property 😂, just saying, Len 👍🚜
I’m hoping to have to refill on a regular basis! lol.. It’s definitely a good location as long as the campers don’t bring their own wood.
Hey Brandon , glad y’all were safe and had a safe trip home . I do believe you have hit the cash cow at the campground . Have a good one my friend . 👍🏻🇺🇸🪵🔥
Thanks Del. It wasn’t too bad where we were. I actually slept through the worst if it. I’m hopeful that the stand in the campground is popular with the campers 😀 Take care Del and I hope you all are good and getting bs onto a little bit of normal after Helene
Hope y’all had a great trip and glad y’all made it back safe! Good looking bundles and sweet location! Hope it goes well for you both! Enjoyed it Brandon! 👊🏻🔥🪵🇺🇸
It was rainy the whole time but we tried to make the best of it. I think the bundles will sale good over the fall and winter. It’s a nice little campground
Great to see you’re busy selling that firewood! That campground should be a gold mine for you🤞 Have a great one Brandon👍👊
It’s been a busy 2 weeks for sure . I’m hopeful that the bundles will move in the campground. It’s a neat little place and thankful to be able to set up there. Appreciate ya Jeremiah 👍🏻
Glad to see staying busy and making money.
It’s been busy the last few weeks. I’m hopeful the bundle stand will be successful in the campground
That spot looks like it will work out real well for you!! Close by and looks like you have no competition 🔥🪵👍👏🇺🇸 Rick
Thanks Rick. Really happy to be able to set up there and should hopefully sell some bundles this fall and winter 👍🏻 Have a good week 🔥🪵🇺🇸
Wow, didn’t know you were in the middle of Hurricane Milton. Glad you came thru unscathed. Wishing you the best regarding the campground firewood stand. Tim in Oneida
Yep, we rode it out instead of fighting all the evacuation traffic from Tampa. Never lost power and slept through most of it. I’m optimistic the campground will sell some wood 👌🏻
Good stuff. It’s always nice to see wood leaving the yard.
We’ve had a good cool snap so it’s got everyone’s mind on fires the last week. Had a busy weekend delivering 👍🏻
Good to see firewood is moving, are your bundles 1 cubic foot? They look bigger than stuff I see on other channels
I’ve moved a lot of wood this weekend. The cool snap definitely got the wheels rolling. The bundles are .75 cu/ft. Some may be just a tad bigger but the mark on my Bundler is for 0.75
I've never had hickory to split. Wish I did. Nice video. Just subbed!
It’s a love hate relationship. Sometimes it gets really stringy and hard to separate. It’s some really good wood though. I appreciate you subbing 👍🏻
Those chips are giant! Sharp ass chain!
Yes! She was chewin on that Poplar!! 💪🏻😎🔥🪵
Hey Brandon. That hickory makes for some great splits. I ran into some punky stuff in the hickory I've been working through, it got set aside for boiler wood. I started trying to carve to good parts and finally said to heck with it. Always enjoy watching, take care.
I let this one set just a little longer than I should but it still had a lot if good wood left in the middle of it. Split pretty good for hickory 👍🏻
That is some fine Hickory Brandon, looks like for whatever reason you left it, it worked out well for you and your customer____Win, Win for you both 🪵👍👏🇺🇸 That sure is a fine saw too!
It made for some really nice splits. I was a little worried about it looking at the bark, but it had plenty of meat left in it. Loving the 462C 😎👍🏻
Great looking rounds and very nice splits your customer should be very happy with that firewood. Great job Brandon.
Thanks Todd. I was really pleased with the amount of good wood that came out of it. Especially how it looked in the outside. It smelled really good too Appreciate you watching Todd 👍🏻
I'm just thinking those rounds must be heavy. good size hickory is a workout. Makes nice firewood though.
They were pretty heavy. That hickory is so dense! Plus it was wet from the rain. About as big of a round I’ll be picking up.. appreciate you watching 🔥🪵
Smoking wood doesn’t get any better than that load!! Your customer will definitely be pleased! Those plastic bottom totes require a little more finesse to flip over. Definitely enjoyed it Brandon!! 👊🏻🔥🪵🇺🇸
It turned out pretty good considering what the outer bark looked like. It smelled as good as it looked. It was definitely more tricky with the Kubota. There’s not much finesse in it anyway 😂😂
Good seeing you do what like to do. Hope all is well.
Thanks Rolo.. it was good to get out in the woods and play with the saw. It’d been a bit since I had got to do it. Made fir some nice Hickory Smoker Wood
Morning Brandon , that’s some really good looking splits of hickory . 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks Del. Turned out to be some really nice splits of hickory. I was worried with how the bark looked Take care Del 🔥🪵🇺🇸
That sure was some great lookin Hickory. When I seen how straight that log was I thought to myself I bet he’s gonna get some nice splits outta that one😂 Nice work Brandon👊🏻
Thanks Todd. I was a little worried at first looking at the bark, but it was nice and solid on the inside 👍🏻👍🏻 Appreciate you watching
I love getting the nice splitting hickory! Great stuff👍👍
It split really good! Not stringy at all compared to most I’ve split! Appreciate you Jeremiah
Nice looking hickory!
Thanks Mike. I was a little suspect at first by the way the bark looked. But it made some really nice sticks 👍🏻
Finished product looks great!
Thanks Genin. I was a little worried when I first looked at the bark. But the heartwood was really solid 👍🏻
Not sure if I missed something. Tops are from logging or storm damage? Vic
They were left from loggers that logged the timber
That’s some long ass rounds your cutting there you must have a giant wood stove
They’re just 16” rounds. Must just look big in camera.
@@McKameyFarms funny yeah 👍 cameras do do that
The Lamar dump trailer sure looks like a great trailer. Nice job in doing your homework based on your needs before the purchase.
Thanks Obie! I’m really happy with it so far. The quality is outstanding 👍🏻
Very Nice Brandon!
Thanks Bobby. I’m really happy with it so far. Got to get he a remote, but the quality is pretty impressive
She’s a beauty Brandon! Someday I would like to replace my dump truck with a trailer also👍👍
Thanks Jeremiah! I’m really pleased with it so far. The dump truck did me right for a long time, but with its age and cost to operate, it was time to let it go.
Nice trailer buddy!
Thanks Mike! Really happy with my purchase. All around good investment I feel
CONGRATULATIONS Brandon. Lamar and N & N (galvanized) dump trailers are high on my list if I ever sell my utility and equipment trailers! I just haven’t decided whether I would prefer a 12’ or 14’ or a 16’ dump trailer. Tim in Oneida
Thanks Tim. It’s a beast and I’m living it so far! Made my first delivery and made some money hauling rock too so it’s already paying for itself. For the price difference it was a no brainer for me to go with the 16 footer
Hey Brandon that is a great looking trailer. I know you are going to enjoy it. Have a great dsy
Thanks Todd. I’m really happy with it so far. Hopeful to get many years of device out of it. Have a good week
Sounds like a good business decision especially with the cost of the insurance and a very good investment.
Thanks Joe. I really like it. Many more uses, and much cheaper on insurance 👍🏻
Very nice trailer Brandon !! That “Get Outside” Guy is a Purdy smart Guy ! Can’t beat that 7 Gauge seamless floor system 👍 I bet you will get years of work out of that baby 👍 Enjoy a great purchase 👏😎🇺🇸
Thank you sir! The trailer is a beast. Very pleased with it 👍🏻 Todd definitely sold me on it. I hope you have a great week 🔥🪵🇺🇸
Nutrien... Ugghhhh I pay <200yr on my c50 here in NY. You gotta check out Travis does firewood sometimes. Jump in when Brandon Fischer and I get going, really mess people up w 3 of us .😅😅
I’m not a crop grower but they sponsor my Late Model driver Davenport 😂 I was ready to move on from the ol dumptruck and the insurance price was the last straw. Tried 3 different carriers 👎🏻
Hey Brandon , when I bought my dump trailer , there was no Lamar dealer anywhere near me . That’s why I went with a Kaufman . The Lamar is top shelf . I have seen 4or 5 people here with Lamar trailers in the past couple of months . Very happy you got one . 👍🏻🇺🇸
I was lucky and had a Lamar dealer about 40 mins away. They were definitely the best quality in my area for the price. I’m very pleased with it for sure. Have a great week Del 🔥🪵🇺🇸
Great purchase Brandon! Those Lamar trailers are the best built trailers I’ve seen. Take care!👍🏻
Thanks Rod! It’s definitely a well built trailer. Super impressed with the quality! Have a good week
Awesome trailer Brandon!! Love that color! I think yours is better than Todd’s! 😉😂😂 You’ll be hooking up a wireless remote soon! I went thru the same thing with insurance on an old 2 ton dump truck we have. Many thanks for the mention 👊🏻 and happy for you buddy!!
Thanks Jacob. I’m so happy with it. Definitely looking to get a remote for sure! Already making me money on stone deliveries and firewood. 👏🏻
@@McKameyFarms can’t beat that!!
Happy for you. We have 12ft dump but 3 foot walls. Wish we did get the longer. Enjoy the many uses.
Thanks Rolo. So many uses and very handy for lots of things. Looking forward to this first firewood delivery 👌🏻
Very nice trailer!
Thanks Aaron.. really happy with it and look forward to hailing alot with it.
Congratulations on that beauty!! I can safely say that is an awesome trailer! Still very happy with mine. I appreciate the mention. Take care Brandon👊🏻
Thanks Todd! I’m loving the trailer. Very well built and pulls extremely well. I’m definitely needing to get with Lamar on a remote 👍🏻
Both of your videos have been a huge help. I’m looking at the same trailer for my firewood business. Trying to pick a good dump trailer is no easy task.
@@cabinviewventures Lamar and Diamond C was my two choices and went with Lamar. No regrets!
@@toddsoutsideagainsame two I’m down to. I really like the quality and features of the LPT series just don’t like the floor. 10 gauge with 16” on center supports. Worried it won’t hold up well dropping logs in and hauling equipment. That Lamar floor looks solid.
Good choice, that’s an excellent trailer!
Thanks Genin! I’m loving it. And it starts everytime 😂😂
Great job started making one yesterday what are you using to keep the wrap centered on the rod
I’m using some 1/2” thick plastic that I cut out and screwed together to create a “spool”
Thanks
Find others who need wood and would go in for a share. 3 or 4 men and families could do alot
Bad loggers. No excuse. Wasteful.
I totally agree. If I was the land owner I would’ve been really unhappy with the mess they left
This is great . Lower the cutting table so u can cut big logs. .. use the hill so it’s low on the ground to cut but at the same level as the rest . U cut hi side
