I couldn't cope without my husky. fair play I thought I went though some logs with two fires but I'm not sure I use that much.

 

Do you cut and chop all that yourself wil ?

 

My back is aching just thinking about filling the sheds up again

 

Its a nice feeling seeing the sheds full at the end of the summer

That's a fair maul chris

 

I have had my time swinging them feckers about. Tractor power all the way now. It's the future.

[ChrisJones 7,975]

I don't have the work for a petrol splitter, or anything like a tractor, Moxy!

 

I swing the maul to keep my belly under control... I should probably got and cut some wood looking at my keks!

I don't mind cutting loading or stacking but I fukcing hate splitting ... Mind numbing boring and fukcing tedious ... I must get a log splitter for the summer as I have around 100 ton to sort and all for free .......

[Rake aboot 4,936]

I quite enjoy splitting

 

 

Fine way to spend a morning , grafting, and imagining a different head on the block each time !

 

You at least feel like yeh`ve done a bit after a day splitting yer own free fuel.

Try to visualise logging in here and reading the dog forum before you swing the maul... You'll be through 3-4 cords before you can say "Nice Dog! How's It Bred, Mate?"

I'm a hand cutter so no shortage of wood for me, have a session in the spring to fill the log shed and just bring a bit home everyday from work. Always plenty of hung up trees or dead wood around. The house I'm in now has central heating but we barely use a couple of hundred litres of oil a year. Wood burner keeps the whole house warm.

[moxy 617]

I'm not short niether. Just got to work for mine
