i would. but if you could do it year round, you wouldnt be trying to save as much usable sap because you know you can do it year round, so if you get tired just let the trees run on the ground for a week and then start back up after that, when time and energy permit. so basicaly you dont have to boil everything like in the spring cause its always avaliable, in the spring there is only so long the sap runs, we have to rush and boil long and save as much as posable.

If you could do it year round syrup wouldnt be worth anything. That is the only problem that I see.

Sounds to me like your describing dairy farming. Not to many guys running out to buy bigger dairy equipment because they "just love it" and can't get enough!
Just saying...
