Hand-Cranked Firewood Bundler
Manufacturing a firewood bundler was a natural extension for Hud-Son Forest Equipment, of Barneveld, New York. The family-owned business has been selling products for firewood producers for more than 40 years. The company introduced the new bundler in April.
  The $795 unit stands at a comfortable 36 in. tall and bundles firewood in lengths of 14 to 24 in. long in 12 or 14-in. diameters. The wood is loaded into a hopper, then plastic is wrapped around it five or so times with a hand crank. It's easy enough for a child to do it, company rep Nicole Hudon says, and it uses plastic that's conveniently available at office supply stores. Operators can slip in a piece of paper with business and price information during the wrapping process to eliminate the step of adding a sticker at the end.
  For handlers interested in more speed, an electric motor version is available for additional cost.
