If you cut it and split it yourself, it can keep you warm up to four times!

Way more than that if you're not super efficient/cant do multiple steps at once:

  1. Bucking
  2. Loading log into trailer
  3. Unloading log from trailer
  4. Splitting
  5. Stacking
  6. Bringing inside
  7. Burning

Ideally I try to do:

  1. Buck
  2. Tow splitter to where tree fell/was bucked and split on the spot putting split pieces directly in trailer
  3. Stack directly from trailer
  4. Bring inside
  5. Burn

So really, even an efficient workflow is more like 5 times since I tend to cool off between steps 2 and 3.
