    Mulberry is very heavy and holds alot of moisture at first, the yellow will turn brown when it dries. Love that 37D!!

    The 37D is a beast! Running those giant knotty rounds through the box wedge like there's nothing to it!

      A $34,500 log splitter, attached conveyor included, better split the knarly stuff wity ease!

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci +2

      It definitely is a beast...but I think having fewer wedges also helps when using the 5 way compared to 7 way box wedge.

    As you know by now mulberry splits very well. It's at the top end of good fire. It also holds up good in the weather. If I could find enough it's all I would burnwould

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci +2

      Hahaha....they are actually made that way. I think it's called a 'Scrunch' and it's built right into the pants....lol

  • @atskooc
    @atskooc Před 10 měsíci +2

    That stuff burns pretty hot. Hotter than oak (but not as hot as its cousin osage orange).

  • @sethsevaroth
    @sethsevaroth Před 10 měsíci +1

    So funny enough, my local tree service made another drop here today mostly red oak but hiding within was ... a familiar looking yellow sapwood tree. I would have been scratching my head if not for your video. 😂

  • @oldguyfirewood
    @oldguyfirewood Před 10 měsíci +1

    Sure is nice not having to manhandle those big rounds... the box wedge and pullback arm are the answer!

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci +1

      The pullback arm is in my mind a bigger game changer than the auto cycle. If I would've been using a 4 way and having to manually pull the chunks back for re-splitting I'd be one worn out Wood Hound! LOL

    You'll want that Mulberry for your boiler, good BTU's I do not sell it for recreational use because it tends to pop and throw sparks, some say more so than pine.

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Ahh that makes sense...I'll have to keep it separated then or save it for my own personal burning in my fire pit...thanks!

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci +1

  • @williamellis8993

    I was wondering if you would need a splitter like fricknjeep has for his Bobcat, but you did OK. When you took your jacket off, I knew you meant business.
    Bill

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci

      Yes, that is what in poker they call a 'tell'...when the jacket comes off in the woodyard it's time to get serious! LOL

  • @ronbrooks6681
    @ronbrooks6681 Před 10 měsíci

    Dan and Amanda great Video as always my Friend. That Splitter the 37D.is a Bear. About how many Tons is it Rated at? Does a number on that Mulberry. Mulberry does Snap, alot therefore it best to use it in your outside Boiler. I am cutting up somemore Locust today. Great News also getting about 10 Red Oak Logs Shortly my Friend. Be in touch and stay Safe as always, Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci

      The splitter definitely is a beast...didn't even care for some of the knots in the Elm, just pushed right through. I believe it's 37 ton. Nice score on the Oak logs!

  • @disenfranchisedcitizen1432
    @disenfranchisedcitizen1432 Před 10 měsíci

    Did you have that box wedge as low as it could go? I’ve got a 22-28 on order with the box wedge and I’m trying to determine how small of pieces it can make if the wedge is as low as possible or if I should change it to a pizza wedge. Thanks.

    • @Back40Firewood
      @Back40Firewood  Před 10 měsíci

      I didn't have it all the way down. If you are looking for smaller splits the pizza wedge would be the way to go. You can run with the wedge all the way down, however it is not engaged with the lifting mechanism so it will push up when wood is pushed through. You have to run with it raised up a couple inches from the bottom so it is locked in....if that make sense.

    • @FirewoodJim
      @FirewoodJim Před 10 měsíci

      7 way can make 1.5x4s or so with the wedge down. It's pretty consistent. He's right the wedge will move if too far down. Either way it's no set it and forget it with the wedge. Naturally, going through knots and slanted pieces, the wedge moves, so you get a mix of 1.5x4 - 5x5s You get a ton of kindling wood and a mix of 2x2 or so wood. Hope that helps.

      I'm not familiar with Osage Orange, does it grow this far up north here in west central Wisconsin?

    • @localcrew
      @localcrew Před 10 měsíci +1

      @@Back40Firewood Yes. It’s spread everywhere. It originally grew only in a small area of Oklahoma, I think. It’s in the “Audubon Guide to Eastern Trees”. Look on the ground for those big, softball-sized green spheres. That’s the dead giveaway for Osage Orange. As is the bright yellow sawdust. Keep an eye on the split firewood. It will gradually turn dark brown. I’m still thinking it’s Osage Orange.

    I don't believe that's Mulberry I have 4 or5 on my property in the last 50 years they are still 15 16 inches in diameter and the largest I've ever seen about 22 inches. I'd guess either Osage Orange or Black Locust
