[NorthwoodsLife]

I am looking to buy one and any advice would be appreciated.
These range in price from $10 up to the sky.
Thank you.

Be well. Tractor on.

Is that something for the guy who has everything? I can’t really imagine why one would be needed.

If diesel won’t get it going…. it’s still too wet….?

I own the $10 version bought on Amazon. I works great.

I cut and store firewood.

Had a couple trees fall and trying to figure out a way to store the splits and rounds for best results.

One tree appeared to be dead, the other, not.

Thank you.

I just watched Gordy (GP Outdoors) and ordered the TS 630 that he somewhat tested. We will see how it goes...

General Tools Model MMD4E

Easy to use and very accurate.

Same - I found I used it a lot at first for the knowledge and maybe the novelty? I am on Arboristsite wood burning forum and went with one of the recommendations over there (cheap but decent).

It is pretty good if you have a lot of wood you don't keep track off and note that sampling/testing technique is a factor w/ any of them. I find that the look, weight and feel of any given split or round is best. Of course, wood type, storage conditions, and weather are wild variables in my neck of the woods

I have the General one and use it whenI buy firewood for camping to see if the vendor is screwing me.
