Hello everyone welcome to the channel. Todd’s Outside Again was started to continue to interact with the good, like minded people, in this outdoor community after my son stepped away for a break from his channel. It will show the growth of my awkwardness in front of the camera as well as growing a small firewood business with my son. Father and son team working together to pass on work ethic and life lessons. Hope y’all enjoy!👊🏻

Todd what state in the Midwest are you. Enjoying your videos. Keep up the good work.
What a nice mix that is going to be when done. I think i tend to stay with Doug fir and maple for the most part of a mix.
Well if it works for you it’s the best mix. This is gonna be great splitting and an awesome recreation mix. Take care Daniel👊🏻
Hey Todd. Healthy load of rounds ya made yourself. I never heard of that last species of wood, im not gonna try to spell it.
Yes it was! Turned out to be more that I thought too. Sassafras is definitely a younger twister. Thanks for watching Kenny👊🏻
I have a lot of sassafras on my place It really smells nice, burns nice, cuts nice and splits great. It is a little better than poplar and smells great. That is a nice size to be cutting and handling. At my age that is ideal for me. On my place, everything is 30" or more and mostly hickory.
Yeah we have a few here and there. I do like how it smells. We had a big one in our front yard as a kid. It had a tire swing in it and we were always kicking off the tree and the bark smelled awesome. Does split and burn nice as well. Thanks for watching James
That is a nice load of mixed wood for sure. It’s nice having the variety because I find everyone is different and like different woods for one reason or another. Nice job cleaning that stuff up.
Yes it was! I love to mix the varieties for recreational burners! Some flame more some burn longer some smell good burning just a good mix. Thanks Russ👊🏻
About half a cord after it's split if I had to guess
Yeah there was more hiding in the weeds than I first thought😂 It’s gonna be well over a half cord just by the volume it took up in my trailer. Thanks for watching Jimmie👊🏻
@@toddsoutsideagain probably 2 good face cords.
I like loads like that, makes it kinda fun to split.
Yes it does! When it’s all said and done fun to burn too! Variety is good in recreational burning. Thank Jdubb👊🏻
Much more than a facecord! Score!
Yup there was more hiding in the weeds than I thought at first glance😂 Great manageable stuff. Thanks Mike👊🏻
We're lucky where we are located Todd.All kinds of variety.
Yes we are! Thanks Ted👊🏻
Great video.
Appreciate ya Rick👊🏻
I'm so jealous. The farmer/owner here doesn't cut wood down for me, have to do it myself 😅😅 Box elder, only tree w an aorta
Beautiful stuff really! Not the best for heat wood but awesome for recreational firewood! I’m sure spoiled. Having a pile of logs to cut when you arrive is awesome! Thanks Brandon👊🏻
For those that don't know, I'm the farmer/owner
@@brandonhoad9033 :🤣
@@DanielAtkinsFirewood tons of rain on left coast too? Did you see Ironhorse's video from Canisteo? 1 1/2 hr SE of me. Our camera ho governor showed up there for some pix
Good morning Todd , that is a sweet load of rounds . Nice bucking also . 👍🏻🇺🇸
Good morning! Yes it was an awesome load. It really doesn’t get much better in my opinion! Appreciate ya Del👊🏻🇺🇸
I am blessed on the fire wood end I get paid to haul in my wood . But down the road on the family farm . My aunt and uncle cut there timber last year . There is a lot of awesome wood to harvest there .
That is awesome! Yeah if ya can get to it as soon as the loggers leave it’s easier! Before all their trails get overgrown! Thanks for watching Jason👊🏻
Are the chiggers bad there, too? They are tearing us up, making it miserable to get outside. Lol!
Bill I haven’t had an issue yet. Haven’t been spending too much time at the farm because all of the tree service though! Thanks for watching 👊🏻
Hi Todd another great video. I just picked up some free box elder the other day. It’s not the best wood but it will burn when seasoned. I love the mix of everything. Keep on keeping on bro.❤😊
Thanks. Boxelder is very easy cutting, splitting and drying👍🏻👍🏻 Not to good for heat but great recreational wood! Thanks for watching Jason👊🏻
Great load of different species. I ran 3 tanks through my MS261 and 500i yesterday!! Thanks for recommending the 261!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
The 261 is an awesome saw . I am old enough I go all the way back to the 026 . Not sure how many I even have .
Awesome! I find that I have the 261 in my hands 90% of the time now! So enjoyable to run. Glad I could help! Thanks David👊🏻
I always watch videos all the way through to the end. Sassafras has got kind of a little bit of a root beer smell to it i think. I think I ran into box elder one time since I've been cutting wood.
Thanks for sticking it out to the end! Yeah Sassafras sure has a distinct smell. I’ve heard it compared to root beer a lot. Thanks for watching Kevin👊🏻
@@toddsoutsideagain I've watched all your videos and to the end
@@kevinmason3086 Thanks Kevin! I appreciate the loyalty. Spread the word😂👊🏻
Nice wood 🇧🇻👍
Thanks Fredrik👊🏻
Thanks Todd . I think that’s one of the best parts of watching everyone across the country is seeing all the different species of wood they have and how it splits . Great description on that sassafras and how it smells . I didn’t know there was such a thing as sassafras trees . Thanks again for bringing us along Todd .
You got it Phil. That’s how i found this woodhound community. Searching KZread to see what other species people were cutting and selling around the country was interesting to me. I appreciate ya watching 👊🏻
Log tossin’ champ💪. Definitely gonna be more than a face cord. Nice work TOA., sharp she is , Later on brother 🍺☑️
Yeah definitely more than the original facecord guesstimate! There were more logs laying covered by weeds than i originally thought 😂 Thanks for watching Richy👊🏻🍻
Very nice mix smell good wood. Hey, we use the same bar oil and saws. The Harvest King is the best oil for my 400C because it has a real stingy oiler(had it checked out) but the HK fixed all that. Been using it for a couple years with minimal wear on everything it touches. $8.95 a gallon. Fun show, thanks.
Good stuff. I always buy it because it’s cheap and at my local farm supply store! Just watched another channel do a comparison on bar oils and Harvest King beat all the top brands hands down. Sometimes it pays to be cheap😂 Thanks for watching 👊🏻
I think you win first prize for most species in one trailer load! I don't think you'll run out of wood to cut there any time soon! Great video Todd!
Yeah I sure enjoy these trips to the farm! The variety and sizes of wood is always great! This would be a great load for that new vertical you picked up. Thanks for watching Steve👊🏻
Man what a nice mix! Great sizes also going to make some top quality firewood!! See ya👍👊🍻
Sure was. It’s always awesome to get that kinda variety and size to work with! Appreciate ya Jeremiah 👊🏻
It's always nice to have help with the loading 👍
You got that right! I said at first I would just load it up but when I heard that tractor start 🤷♂️ I always appreciate the help. Thanks Ken👊🏻
Now that Andrew has a flat rate for shipping, im now currently considering upgrading. But there's a Wolfe Ridge dealer 9hr from me. I may do an episode on it. Keep cuttin' brother!
Yeah that flat rate of $500 is definitely gonna be a game changer! They both make awesome splitters! Just kinda depends on what works best and Is most accessible in your area. Thanks Travis👊🏻
Great to see the videos with you and Evan! You raised a fine young gentleman! Good luck at college in Alabama , Evan! Nice gadgets Todd!
Thanks Craig. We are currently in a Hotel in Alabama for Evans big move in tomorrow. It’s definitely not gonna be the same in the woodyard for a few years!! Thanks for the kind words👊🏻
Todd like you said free is free. Not my favorite stuff, but I'll take it. If it gets to be too much of a problem just more for the burn pile. On the small stuff I try to cut a while and split a while just to keep from having such a mess and avoid the trip hazards. Take care Ben.
Free is good!! Delivered is also good😂Yeah I just had another drop from my other tree service. Just the opposite. HUGE stuff. Some of it will be donated to the burn pile! Good idea on splitting after you cut for a little bit! It also changes it up a little bit so it doesn’t get so monotonous😂 Take care Ben👊🏻
How's that bar oiler performing on the 400
Doin just fine. I have heard from some that they upgraded to a bigger oiler. I have never had a problem with mine running a 25” bar🤷♂️
I'm sure Evan will do just fine at Alabama with his great upbringing, and of course Kendra as well! He will be sorely missed as you continue doing your videos. Best wishes to you also Todd as you navigate in the woodyard without your fantastic sidekick! Have fun with the pro 28!!
I’m positive both my kids will do great things! Really not going to be the same in the woodyard without Evan! Tomorrow is the big day! Heading south to Tuscaloosa. I appreciate your continued support Obie👊🏻
Nice work fellas! Evan, good luck at school and enjoy the adventure. We'll all make sure your dad takes care of the business while you're gone😁
Thanks Bobby! I am positive Evan will do great things! Appreciate the support 👊🏻
Sounds like you’re taking yourself into a 28c 😉 maybe that will be your next and last demo. Bit of a jump price wise but man does this thing 💨 some wood! Thanks for the video Todd!
Yeah I would love to run a 28c but I’m almost afraid to😂 I appreciate ya watching 👊🏻
Nice Todd! Crazy how times flies and kids grow up so fast. Will definitely miss seeing Evan in the videos.
You and me both! That is one huge benefit of having a KZread channel. I get to share information with the audience and I also get to go back and watch all the memories I’ve made in this journey with Evan. It’s a video library for Evan and I both. Thanks for watching.👊🏻
All the free to use wood splitters and power packs won’t make up for the absence of your partner/son.
No they will not! Nothing could do that! Thats not at all my intentions with the splitters. It’s great experience for me and good to pass it on to others that’s all🤷♂️
I did want to tell ya though the 9 hp engine lacks the power to break larger Oak and other hard woods. The 6 way doesn't work on hard woods. Not mine anyway.
Hello Greg. I have busted down some big oak on this splitter with the 4 way with no problems. Haven’t tried it with the 6 way. I think where the 6 way would shine is on 10-12” rounds so it would be one push. I guess they all have their limits. I appreciate ya watching and commenting 👊🏻
Hi Todd and Evan. I have watched both father and son working together the past year or so. Have met you both at several events in the wood hound community. You both are pleasant to meet and talk to. Evan I wish you the best at college. I also wish the best for your sister going off to college too. Todd it will be hard for you to work all on your own as Evan is at college. Best wishes to all including the most important your wife. Later guys.
Wow, thank you! This community is just full of awesome people! You are one of the best Allen! Thanks for the kind words of encouragement for my twins👊🏻
Good luck at college Evan! Father farms along LOL!
Appreciate ya Steve👊🏻
Great video the whole way through! I have a 250watt power pack and I'd like to have another bigger one. They are really handy. Ya'll made that 6 way grunt a little bit 😂 I hope the best for Evan and his twin sister!! He really is a pleasure to be around what little I have been around him, I guess the apple doesn't fall too far 😉. Enjoyed it fellas!!
Thanks for the kind words Jacob! Yeah these power packs are very handy! I would like to have a smaller one just for charging cell phones when camping deer hunting etc..We had some tuff rounds for that 6 way but the 28 Pro did it! I’m positive Evan and his Sister Kendal will do great things! Thanks for your support Jacob👊🏻
I liked when Evan motioned to get the ash round instead of messing with the stuck Elm.
The student has become the teacher 😂 Thanks for watching 👊🏻
First time I cried as an adult was my drive to college, reading a note my dad wrote me.
Yeah, I’m not gonna lie. I might have shed a few tears on my drive as an 18-year-old from Illinois to Virginia as I got to my first command in the Navy. It wasn’t easy. I’m also going to say the drive home from Alabama and then Iowa dropping my two kids off at college won’t be just as hard or harder.😂 Thanks for watching 👊🏻
Our job is to make our children independent. I believe that you are doing a great job there. Evan good luck in college. Nice splitter.
Thanks, Robert. I always appreciate the kind words Evan and his sister both I am positive will do just fine. I appreciate you watching.👊🏻
Best wishes to Evan and his sister in their next venture in life. There is nothing better than watching your kids grow. Nice splitting session.
Thanks Jerry! I appreciate ya👊🏻
Nice splitting fellas!
Thanks Tony👊🏻
Great job guys! Good luck to Evan! - Tim
Thanks Tim👊🏻
Good luck to Evan!! And good luck to you in working the woodyard without him!
Thanks Tim! 👊🏻
I would like to try the 6 way and there wicked 12 way . I am loving my new 28C it’s a beast . Picked it up yesterday morning .
Awesome congrats on the 28c👊🏻
Awesome! That battery pack looks great.
I love it! I use it everyday for something👊🏻
Good luck to Evan heading south, enjoyed watching Todd.
Thanks Ted 👊🏻
Todd nice splitting session! I can’t say I’ve ever heard of corn flies before but the fan in the wood yard is still a great addition. Flies or not. 😂 Have a good week! 👊
It’s a good thing you have never heard of corn flies. For about a month this time of year they drive us crazy! The fan is great! Still waiting on that TOA fan bracket from Wolfe Ridge😂 Thanks for watching Bob👊🏻
That 6 way wedge looks to work very well even in the tougher stuff. Good luck at school to your son as well.
Yes it does! I was impressed! Thanks. I know Evan will do just fine! I appreciate that support Russ👊🏻
I have never seen stringy ash. All the ash we had in Ohio split like a dream. It was like hard maple. We were the first state hit by the ash borer, so all our ash is too rotten to cut. Most people got it cut and used before it rotted but I have a bunch on a hillside on the front of my property and it was just too steep for my old knees to work on. Probably my favorite wood to burn. Our bitternut hickory is stringy like that, and I have cut a bunch of it in the last 2 years. I have over 100 rounds of it cut up but have to wait for help to get it out of the woods. Hope Evan has a safe trip to college and enjoys his time there. Elm is a very nasty wood to split. I avoid it when I can.
Yeah I’m betting Ash might be a little stringy when it’s green? Or it could just be a different species of Ash that is more resistant to the beetle. Most of our Ash is still alive🤷♂️ Thanks for the well wishes for Evan👊🏻
