@@christophersmalley6983 hahaha send me your email and I’ll send you a video of it bleeding on my plate. Look man if you use a microwave to cook your steaks just say so 🤣

@@christophersmalley6983 rare-med rare on the inside with a nice barked up seasoning crust. IYKYK

@@tbo2120 Thank you so much for watching! 🍻

@@mikesherman2612 I’m inundated with wood that needs to be split. Hopefully I can get the clutter cleaned up and start moving this stuff out. The season is almost upon us!! Thanks for the sub.

@@FoothillsFirewood absolutely man, all I have left here is some Black Locust that I’ve threatened to push over into the stump dump more than once. I started my little side hustle before I really looked at places to store wood. We typically burn between 7-9 cord a season here personally and I’ve only got like 3 available for bundles. I have to be super careful haha. I Look forward to meeting you at HOPE if you can pull it off my friend.

@@mikesherman2612 black locust is great. I look forward to meeting you as well! It’s looking promising just looking for a replacement for the day at work!

@@kenskuts hey Ken! I sure hope I’ll be there. I’m trying to work it out at work! I need to shoot Ken Anderson a message. I would love to see a woodyard inventory video!!

@@amandadavis9726 yeah that and the fact that stacking in totes is about the neatest way to keep a woodyard. There’s nothing better than a bunch of great looking stacked wood totes! Unfortunately the tote market around here is bananas. They used to not be able to give these things away and now some of them are 75-150 dollars each. Thanks so much for watching! Tag me if you do a video of your process!

@@FoothillsFirewood google “bulk fluid delivery near me.” There should be some companies that show up, that sell automotive fluids in bulk. Some of them don’t have enough room in their yard to store them before they can recycle them. If you can find any,…I’d suggest to show up and ask to speak to the manager about having them available. You’ll probably end up speaking to the headquarters located out of state if you call. Also, you’ll prefer the ones with that had antifreeze, because you may have to consolidate the residual into one container. I just so happened to have found an ad on OfferUp for $15/tote. I went and picked up 26 per load, once a week for two months. It was fun processing them all down before I moved, lol.

@@lnproductions3159 thank you for watching!!

@@paulwilliams5208 you’re 100% right and that’s what I tried to begin with but there’s not enough room on the underside to swing the lock around and lock so I had to resort to flipping it. Smartest comment I’ve seen yet!

@@dons8122 yeah this isn’t a high traffic situation. If someone wants it the lock is useless no matter what it is. They can yank the entire box and take it back to the comfort of their own living room to count my 6 bucks 🤣 thanks for the comment!

@@josephperez8682 haha good call. the tweakers would have passed it right by then.

@@furkin73 this would definitely be the most ideal way for sure, but there isn’t enough room for the lock to swivel and lock underneath there so I had to resort to putting it upside down 👎

@@erichesse1889 we’re in a pretty good area but we’re not immune to the tweakers for sure. This thing holds 5-10 bucks regularly so it someone decides to yank it, it won’t take the cheese outta my macaroni. Thanks for the comment!

Your wife probably thinks that too💀

@@josephperez8682 🤣

Lmao

@@josephperez8682 Jokes on you, I ain't married brother. Not foolish enough for all that noise hahaha

@@carlalbertpearson3939 hahahahha man this video has given me far more entertainment than I ever assumed it would. Thank you all!!

@@misterezioauditore or just ripped off the wood stand all together for an even quicker get away 🤣

@@07kstephen well…. Since there’s a big cash slot cut into the side I’ll have to say no but, all gov issued milsurp ammocans are air and water tight via the seal/gasket under the lid. I was referring to the fact that the seal was still depressed and not popped as these things have an “unlocked but not opened position” thanks for watching!

@@Rob-pi9go haha there’s actually a Venmo QR code on the front of the stand!

Where are you from? It’s true, that if someone wanted it they could get it. It’s more of a deterrent really. No lock is un pickable!

I dont think pickings the issue nowadays. a cordless angle grinder and your box would be sheet metal in a minute or two

There’s a saying that windows and locks do no more than keep an honest man, honest. Of course you could snatch that shit off the post (no grinder needed). If you want to be an asshole, anything is possible. But most people don’t shit where they eat and I’m sure there’s a camera somewhere.

@@ThatDudeDeven I live in California so my perspective is skewed, but people are willing to die over words on camera in public. Obviously, most crimes are of opportunity and a lock is still useful; just not really a end all be all, which nobody realistically, including you, I and the poster expect them to be.

@@FoothillsFirewood very close but just outside a pretty large city not in North America. It’s not even picking I’d be worried about, its hammers. Had my shed robbed a couple times and seemingly all those padlock style locks can just be wacked open.

@@JohnSmith-fj1rg 🤣if it’s good enough for a lawyer who studied lock picking then it’s good enough for me

Thanks so much for watching Jeremiah. I really appreciate your time! I’m definitely going to build a bin, I’ll keep you posted!

@@LogCabinFirewood tell me about it. I’m hit or miss with eyewear luckily it was sunny out there! That thing wizzed right by my head!

Man I almost put up a slow motion of it popping open you can see the saw dust snap off of it when it’s busts!

@@Jenny4ka83 yes! In a traditional holzhausen you stack the outside and toss the center in. I’ve never seen anyone stack the center. In fact as you stack the wood it naturally wants to bow outward which is why you see those horizontal pieces causing it to lean in onto the pile more! Holzhausen is a great way to stack a lot of wood although if you’re using it for heat I wouldn’t stack as high as mine if just go about head height so you can grab off it it easily. Thanks for watching let me know if you have any questions!

Check out this video and you can see how high I went czcams.com/users/shortsBe6phED-9Lo?si=WoyhJ4JxT06xrbha

@@FoothillsFirewood Thank you for clarifying, very much! 🤝 To be honest, we do not plan to lay firewood in this way, since we do not have enough space, but we always admire so much beautiful work! ✊

@@annaaron3510 the holzhausen is the perfect way to stack a lot of wood when you don’t have a lot of space. My woodyard is full of cord rows and space is running thin. No other way for me to store 8 cord of wood in a 12ft circle. As far as the heating goes. This wood won’t be touched for 2 years. I’ll definitely give an update with a moisture meter then if you’re still around! But yeah if I were using this solely as heat wood I wouldn’t prefer to come outside and climb the ladder for my next burn 🤣 Thanks for watching!

@@FoothillsFirewood The HH is never used in Germany or Norway. It is a cute way to save space for those using wood for fun, not heat. Who wants to get firewood by climbing a ladder in winter ?

@@JimmyTheMower thank you for watching and commenting!!

Thanks so much for watching Jeremiah! I need to get a lid on this thing but it’s been so hot I can’t bring myself to go up and down the ladder and other 300 times 😂

Been doing the holzhauzen the last 2 seasons. Do the "shingles" really make that much of a difference in drying?

@@wirthwhileproperty the shingles definitely allow the stack to shed water as they will be sloped just like a roof would be and peaked in the middle. Using the trees natural water shed (the bark) really allows the wood beneath it to stay dry but it’s definitely not mandatory. Rain would just pour into the stack probably a foot or two and then dry out on the next hot day or two. It’s an aesthetic that serves a good purpose, but probably far from mandatory. Even if I wasn’t going to use bark shingles I’d place my splits in a a manner that allowed them to shed the water from the peak instead of just throwing them up there into a pile. Stick around and I’m planing to do a holzhausen build video that talks about lot about this and the traditions! Thanks for watching

@@AroundTheYard-MN 12 ft wide and currently 12 tall to the peak once I get the roof on probably 13 ft at the tallest point. Of course after I’m standing on it the camera shot is from almost 20 ft up

@@hiscifi2986 I agree. personally I’d never use water. Only compressed air if anything. I just manually rake it out with a little wire tool I have.

@@Treeclimberadrenaline I bet, I’m a hobbyist firewood guy so you probably put a ton of hours on a saw! I was very surprised how people buy saws and never sharpen the chain or do regular basic maintenance.

@@LengthyProcess thanks for watching!

@@markseabourne827 I plan on doing a mini series on chainsaw tips, running saws, safety and maintenance. Stay tuned, and thanks for watching!

Same

I hope that’s exactly how my son feels one day. The time spent and the lessons learned are invaluable. Thanks for watching.

@@CrystalBUGS you got it! Gotta keep these kids outside and off the screens!! Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@vic2796 it’s so important! I take for granted that people have been taught this until I post a video and they think the bar is on backwards 🤦‍♂️

@@outdoorsinthe608 I agree Jeremiah, I know it gets a bad rap from the tough splitting, but this stuff (albeit on the smaller side) split easier than some hickory I’ve had lately. Besides, who doesn’t love a good challenge every once in a while. Thanks for watching!

@@allfraydoh great question! I usually use Omni calculators “log weight calculator” this is ash. 30 inches in diameter 16 inches in length. After entering the species, and size the log weight calculator is saying 307.6 lbs! Definitely no where near heavy as oak. Thank god it was a perfect circle 🤣

It’s an addiction reallly I can do this for hours on end

@@Rkenton48 send her my way.

Nice log splitter!

@@williamcrabtree5272 thank you! That splitter has split many cord of wood! I just upgraded a couple months ago to a commercial unit but this thing was the backbone of my setup for years!

@@FoothillsFirewood Well, she does enjoy swinging an axe, but she's not into other people swing their axes, if you get my drift.

@@tibor6601 thanks for watching! I appreciate your comment.

Thx,God blees you
