The Japa 365+ firewood processor is a great machine for making firewood...big and small. More of everything Back 40 Firewood here: www.back40wood... #back40firewood #woodhound #firewood
Dan, I am going to experiment with the WR bagger with a false bottom and using the netting from Quadel as a possible packing solution. I already have a bunch of the correct size wood pieces and will keep you posted.
Definitely the way to do it. Tons work make that small wood. I been thinking doing smoker chunks. Japa did that splitting chamber right centers every log that’s stoped in it. Nice video hope you had a good weekend
Them little fire pits are cute. The more people that have them the more demand there be for small firewood like that which will be a premium price. Stay safe my friend
It sure pays to have the right tools for the job. Nice work Dan, now use the Wolfe Ridge bagging station to bag 1 cu. Ft. & find your price point for the roadside stand. Could that size also double as smoking chips?
Nice. I made a bunch of bags of Mini Firewood, even advertised on FB marketplace. And I think I have maybe sold 4 of them this summer, but I think people thought it was kindling. Not too many people with mini fire pits up here in northern Wisconsin. Thought about producing a video on my process.
Great Video Dan. Good Stove Wood my Friend. I make mine about 10inches. What a Difference in putting in the Stove and burning it. I am sure your sales will Sky Rocket with that type of Wood. Keep up your Great Videos my Friend. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY. .
There seems to be a growing market for these little fire pits, it will be interesting to fire this one up and see how long small splits like this last in it.
Bill... the city folks/ suburbanites want clean cut wood... They want a fire but aren't allowed in many HOAs, city laws... These smaller burners are starting to explode on the Alphabet-ennials market...
That was cool. Those little stoves are becoming a hit. 16 inch for heating. 12 inch for the bigger portable stoves. Maybe to try out a little of those. What’s the length 6 inches?? Great video.
Now how are you going to package it? That's what I have had a hard time doing. People that buy these tiny stoves like and want a pretty packaging that I haven't figured out.
I'll show it again in an upcoming video and will be using it on the next Friday night live stream I have outside. Here is more info on it warmbond.com/products/bondstove-mini
This would be a wast of my processor time and my time to do this I don't see the point but your equipment is on loan to you. If you had to maintain that stuff for the next 15 years you would see the problem. Belts and chains bearings hydraulic lines. My processor is now 12 years old and to keep it running cost about 1500 bucks a year for parts its old now. I like your channel but if you was buying this equipment you would see this makes no sense. You do not do the volume of wood I do I have moved over 420 tons of wood this year so far cut split and delivered been doing it for 20 years now. I do under stand you are making videos for youtube. I think your videos on baged wood is on point I made good money on baged wood this past summer thanks to your video. Please dont be mad at me looking forward to metting you someday
I'm surrounded by Amish here who sell wood cheap. I'm close to buying splits from them and just reselling campfire wood. Also a bunch of farmers have fence lines and wet holes to clean out so they buy a processor and sell to pay for fuel. Lots of gravel pits so trees need removed for them too. We also have a few really big sawmills and firewood processor guys here who sell volume. I like to cut wood and I like toys so I'll keep doing it. Only use my Wallenstein processor for 4 or 5 days per year. Once the ash is junk I'll likely sell it and just use my big splitter. It will always be a part time hobby/ exercise for me.
Yeah I'm not into actual firewood production, I do this more for making videos. However with that being said...if I could run the machine and make 4 bags of this small fire pit size wood and sell those 4 bags for more than I would get for a face cord, or 1/3 of a cord, wouldn't it make more sense to run a machine when you get a higher ROI? Making more money with less wood and in less run time. To me that would make more sense than running for a longer time, making more wood, and getting less money for it. For example around me the average cost of 1/3 cord is $75. If I can sell a 1 cubic foot bag of that small wood for $20 I only need 4 bags of it and I have more $$ than running a full 1/3 cord. If I were to manually make the small fire pit wood by using a chainsaw and then splitter or axe to make the small splits I would have so much more time into it compared to the few minutes it took to do with the Japa.
@@Back40Firewood I agree Dan. I just bought 2500 firewood bags and also made a shrink wrap bundler that works really good. I can't compete with bulk wood guys so I'm going to do smaller amounts. I also have access to tons of framing lumber cutoffs like 2x10x 14" so I'm splitting that into kindling and putting into bags to sell. I figure that stuff would be good for the Solo pits as well. Quick clean fires with no smoke. We have long spells of fire bans here that kills campfire wood sales.
I did make more on the baged wood I can turn a face cord into over 2 hundred buck versus 60 bucks a face cord and I do thank you for opening up my eyes to the baged wood. I am in pennsylvania surrounded by 500.000 thousand acres of the Allegheny national forest I cant command higher prices like many of you CZcamsrs can get because people are allowed to cut firewood on the national forest so I have keep my price at a point they dont want to do for them self keep the videos coming they are good videos stay safe in your wood yard
That had to be the best video yet, no extra comments or over explanations, just log splitting. Perfect 🤙
Dan, I am going to experiment with the WR bagger with a false bottom and using the netting from Quadel as a possible packing solution. I already have a bunch of the correct size wood pieces and will keep you posted.
Well that worked great! Sure am seeing a lot more of those little stoves around 👍👍
Definitely the way to do it. Tons work make that small wood. I been thinking doing smoker chunks. Japa did that splitting chamber right centers every log that’s stoped in it. Nice video hope you had a good weekend
hi there size matters . good job john
That’s a great idea! The Japa really speeds up the cutting process too
Wow, even the Keebler elves want you to make firewood for them. 😁 You are famous! Love this video. Great job thinking outside the box.
Them little fire pits are cute. The more people that have them the more demand there be for small firewood like that which will be a premium price. Stay safe my friend

That's a whole new avenue for revenue!!! Extra work means extra money!!
Adapting to new products is what keeps us going!! Nice new stove!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
All those wood chips we get would work good with that
"and the trees are all kept equal by Hatchet, Axe, and Saw."
Now that's using your noodle. If you don't want that little wood burner I'll be glad to take it off your hands - LOL. Stay safe.
Dan, the Japa worked well for mini wood. Maybe opened a new enterprise ? Later
Great Video Dan. Good Stove Wood my Friend. I make mine about 10inches. What a Difference in putting in the Stove and burning it. I am sure your sales will Sky Rocket with that type of Wood. Keep up your Great Videos my Friend. Ron from the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.
.
Well this is one option for limb and branches..
Picking up tractor mon japa might be next
wow wood that small and thin burns like news paper
That little heater is really neat , what is name of it and where can I get one ? awesome video & music , Thank you for sharing .
It's made by a company called Warmbond. They also have a larger size smokeless fire pit as well.

Well Dan, I thought I had seen everything until you pulled out that tiny stove. It's more labor, but probably a market for that stuff.
There seems to be a growing market for these little fire pits, it will be interesting to fire this one up and see how long small splits like this last in it.
Well that was a teach you didn't let us see the 🔥 build
lol....I'm waiting to light it for 1st time on upcoming Friday night live stream.
Value added firewood. Bag it and sell it dan. Great use of limb wood to boot 👍
If you wanted fuel for that, all you had to do was reach under the splitter lol.
Bill
Bill... the city folks/ suburbanites want clean cut wood... They want a fire but aren't allowed in many HOAs, city laws... These smaller burners are starting to explode on the Alphabet-ennials market...
Bingo!
That was cool. Those little stoves are becoming a hit. 16 inch for heating. 12 inch for the bigger portable stoves. Maybe to try out a little of those. What’s the length 6 inches??
Great video.
I was trying to keep these around 4 - 5 inches....that seems to be about the max size for this small model fire pit.
Now how are you going to package it? That's what I have had a hard time doing. People that buy these tiny stoves like and want a pretty packaging that I haven't figured out.
Right now I just use the same bags that I use for bundles.
@Back40Firewood How much you asking for them? That might be the difference. I am getting between $30-$40 for that size
A friend of mine has one of those, and uses rubbing alcohol in his. Far cheaper then wood. The rubbing alcohol has no smell, no smoke.
There’s no substitute for a little crackling fire with real wood!
Neat little stove. Any information on it.
I'll show it again in an upcoming video and will be using it on the next Friday night live stream I have outside. Here is more info on it

Small pieces become Benjamin's.🤑
why you split your firewood so mall and thin
So it will fit in the small table top smokeless fire pit that I showed in the video at the beginning and at the end where I put the small pieces in.
