    What a great option in letting the customer pick up. Saves the headache of the delivery company to NOT deliver it
    I'm going thru this issue (automotive parts) right now.

    I'd sell in bags locally and use the boxes for orders to be shipped. Bags will be quicker. The wood should dry in the bags some as well.

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  16 днів тому +3

      That's a good plan...and yeah bags will allow for wood to dry some and also be easier to move around and in & out of the stand.

    Have you thought about cutting the flaps off the box and then put the bag over the box and dump? It may save a little bit of time.

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  11 днів тому

      Yep, the box I use won't fit in those bags unfortunately. I will probably end up making some sort of jig to be able to load bags and/or boxes as well.

    Great idea, Dan. If you run directly into the bags, how would you deal with the scrap as it comes off? So you didn't need to toss any bark to hit the shelter lol. Merry Christmas to all of you.

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  16 днів тому

      That's what will be interesting to see if a lot of scrap ends up in the bags if I fill right from splitting.

  • @larryterrell8458
    @larryterrell8458 16 днів тому

    I’m curious your thoughts…it seems the bags would be better for local pick up and events but I’m curious if you think the bags would survive shipping across the country or would they need to be in a sealed bag?

      Use that rubberized patch advertized on TV and apply from underneath! No worry about above....or patch from below and use undercoating spray from up top! They have some now that is white!

    It will get expensive really quick,if the Grinch starts borrowing bags of mini wood from the road side stand.🙄
    I wonder if customers that are custom to having all debris contained in the box will not like having crumbs on the patio from bags? Every issue fixed or seems to create new issues.🤣 Have a Merry Christmas!🎅

    What I learned? Use a broom end to push up the ceiling of the shelter. Almost impossible to create holes.

    • @Back40Firewood

    Use some liquid electrical tape to fix the tares. Back it with some duct tape or something with a bit of fiber in it.

  • @tpctrash

    Wouldn’t you have all the scrap in the bag if you did it during production?

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  16 днів тому +1

      Some of it might end up in the bag, some of the smaller stuff would fall out the bottom of the tray or even the bag. I'd have to see how loading right after splitting goes and how much waste ends up in the bag.

  • @bwillan
    @bwillan 17 днів тому

    Dan certainly struck out clearing snow of the shelter. LOL. Looks like Dan will need to get some pool noodles to cover the edges of his shovels to keep the shelter from becoming swiss cheese. Now you have a reason to put a new tarp over the shelter and get a roll of Gorilla tape to fix the 3 tears.

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  16 днів тому

      Last year I used a push broom but that wasn't in the shelter so just used the padded handle end of the shovel, but guess it was too blunt or an edge...lol...and the fabric is pretty brittle. Gonna try to patch with the tape, but I gotta get up that high which might be a challenge to reach and not sure Gorilla tape will stick in the cold.
