Singing in the........

Been playing games this morning, managed to get 1 1/2 cuts of wood done, between blustery rain squalls.

The wind is a help, strong wind can whip the horrid sawdust away from you, so long as you put your cutting table in the right place.

Good wood too, we are into seriously dry stuff now, stuff we bought last year and put to one side because it was too wet.

Think I am getting the hang of this chain saw sharpening lark, the chain is well sharp.

Things looking up, between torrential showers....

Yes, but I gather if you cut the wood while it is still 'green' rather than dried out, it cuts easier, and doesn't blunt the saw so much. Seems to work for me.

You mean there's more??? said...

I find for splitting wood it's far easier once it has dried a bit. The lignum seems to bind it.
