Splitting green wood vs seasoned wood: sycamore
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- I believe sycamore is a perfect example of how much of a difference it makes when splitting wood green or seasoned. The difference can be significant. More so with this wood than any I have ever came across yet. But I have found that wood usually splits easier when seasoned, at least in most of the wood I have split, personally. Be safe and God bless!

I love that you mention we are “made” to adapt.
im blessed enough to be a year a head on my wood now. it nice to stack rounds for next year and not need to split it until it is seasoned. seasoned wood splits so much better. great video man. Bless you
That is a blessing indeed my friend! That’s the way to go, in my opinion. Being ahead like that gives you peace of mind and it’s a beautiful sight to see the firewood stock as well! I agree, it makes a huge difference when the wood is seasoned. May God bless you and your loved ones as well and it’s good to hear from you 🙏
Love it! One of my viewers recommended this video to me because I just made a video of me failing splitting green Sycamore! Thanks for sharing. God bless and have a Merry Christmas!
I’ll plan to check your video out! Green sycamore is the toughest wood I have ever hand split, elm being 2nd. Thank you very much for the kind word 🙏 Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones and God bless!
Merry Christmase Eve! What state are you in? @@bluegrassoutdoors
@@oakiewoodsman I’m in Kentucky 👍
excellent! @@bluegrassoutdoors
That sycamore wood reminded me of how tuff that sweet gum I was trying to split on one of my videos. I think I've mentioned this on some of your other videos but the use of your feet and foot work is awesome. Great video Dillon......👍🤙
Stay blessed brother
God bless you as well my friend and thank you for the kind comment 🙏. Keep up the good work with your hand splitting 👍
I have one had Sycamore once, and man, that stuff just wouldn't split, so before I had hydraulics, I used the chainsaw and noodle every bit of it.
I don’t blame you at all, Daniel! That was a wise move. If it’s green, ripping it or hydraulics is the way to go, in my opinion 👍 its good to hear from you sir and I hope you and your family have a blessed winter 🙏
@@bluegrassoutdoors : you as well Dillon.. I was blessed yesterday to run a 661 that was fun of a saw to run and I was able to get a friend out of the house too as his 1st born is due at any time now..
@@DanielAtkinsFirewood sounds like you had a blessed day indeed Daniel! It’s fun to get together with friends and work together like that. It’s something I’d like to do more as well.
Still pretty tough wood but you are getting through it.
God bless you richly. What a great video and thank you for the tips and advice brother. I really enjoyed watching this video. Great looking axe, too.
Hello Anthony! Thank you for the kind words! I didn’t get to go as in depth as I wanted to here with some of the things that I’ve learned along the way with hand splitting. But tomorrow I plan to show more with some maple that I have to split. A lot of it. God bless you and your loved ones as well and its good to hear from you 🙏
@@bluegrassoutdoors I am looking forward to the next video
I need to remember to record horizontally and not vertically
@@HardWoodCountry you can capture a lot more like that. vertical works great for shorts though 👍
@@bluegrassoutdoors thanks for the tip! Goodnight bro
Night and Day Difference!
Yes indeed!
