🪵 NEW VIDEO DROPPING TODAY — Friday Firewood Fetch Series! 🔥
"This Is The Easy Part…"
Yeah, hauling the wood OUT of the woods? That's where things get interesting. 😅
This one's got big loads, tight trails, and a reminder of why we do this — because there's nothing like stacking your own heat for winter.
🎬 Video goes live later today — hit that bell so you don't miss it!

The Bradleys on Catbird Hill
Hey everyone — stay tuned!
Tomorrow morning kicks off the very first episode of Sawmill Saturday, a brand‑new series where I’ll be sawing into nearly 50 different logs from all kinds of species. Some of these logs look rough and rotten on the outside… but inside? Pure beauty.
This week I’m taking on a massive walnut log that nearly maxed out my Kubota L2501. I had to “pivot” just to get it onto the Woodland Mills HM130MAX mill. Once the blade hits the wood, you’ll see why I call this one Beauty Inside The Beast.
New episode drops tomorrow morning — don’t miss it!

The Bradleys on Catbird Hill
ONE BIG ASH showed up for this week’s Friday Firewood Fetch.
I’m taking apart a massive tornado‑damaged ash tree, and the thumbnail says it all — that Echo 7310 biting into the log and the “ONE BIG ASH” text on the right pretty much sums up the day.
At first, I thought this log might be perfect for the sawmill… but once I opened it up, things changed fast. The Echo 7310, Kubota L2501, and Wolfe Ridge 17VS all got a workout on this one.
Would you have milled it or split it?
Video drops soon.
