    Haven't made any progress on the lid yet... But it does fit really good.

    The wood is my only source of heat for my home, so it's kind of a necessity. Getting it delivered by the semi load is the most cost efficient, and least labor intensive... Way better than going to the hills for 1 pickup load at a time.

    there was a PBS show that took people into the wild and they had to make their way.
    Dude had about a cord and a half and was so proud of himself.
    The helper dude said, "Bro, you ain't even close".

    Wishes our humidity was that low. It is 73% out and I run out of breath in 10 feet outside.

    Firewood is like money, to much isn't possible for home heating, camping gather what you need and let the next do the same
