This was the pile of wood I was starting with. It has been sitting out drying for at least two years. The kids are in sleeping bags because it was pretty cold when I started this morning.
I used a chop saw borrowed from a friend. I know a lot of people use chainsaws to cut wood for cordwood, but I am much more comfortable using a chopsaw, and I think it must be more accurate. I built a jig so all the cuts would be the same. I cut the wood at 12 1/2 inches.
Maybe 1/4 done after day 1. The wood was very light and dry. More cutting today and tomorrow and I can hopefully do it all.
