A productive Saturday arvo

[bullwinkle]

All split by hand with a block splitter. Pretty shagged now, but the first beer tastes good....

Quite a few trailer loads there.

If you did that in an arvo, you can come to my place & I will pay you $50.00 an hour. Bloody bargain.

I split one trailer load last week & I can hardly walk a week later. Probably come good in another week.

A hydraulic spiltter would be the go.

That lot should see you through winter!

nice pile, i need to get out and get another 5 meters or so, to see us through winter

I've got enough for this year under tarps. This lot is for next year. Joe - it was only one trailer and ute load today - you can see by the lighter colour. All done with my $100 Chinese chainsaw from ebay.

I've got 1 of those saws great little saw for the price. Its probs cut my 15-20 metres so has definitely paid for its self. And still going strong.

Phew that is comforting. A pile that size would take me 6 months to split & permanently cripple.

Still a fair bit you did though.

I know exactly how much work that is as I do the same with my log splitter but I split mine over summer so it dries out a bit. Weve got too one in the house and one in my shed , don't want to get cold while I work on the nav in winter LOL .Aren't wood fires great

Just bought a second hand Husky 371XP and been giving it a workout the last couple of weeks. The barrel on the drawbar of the trailer was that bloody heavy I couldn't get it any higher. Glad I learnt how to tie a few knots as a young fella! Getting a lend of a hydraulic splitter on the weekend to split about 8 metres hopefully.If anyone know how to rotate these pics, feel free.

Husqvarna make good saws, I'm hoping i dont need anymore wood this year. Mind you its still bloody cold around here

Jeez bullwinkle, I thought having the rear tub only filled with split wood in the D40 was pushing the limit on rear suspension... Obviously i could go a little more. I stacked it neatly so I could still close the hard lid.

Mate, my D22 has re-rolled leafs as well as an extra leaf. The only time it sits level is when I load it up like this! It's usually as stiff as a board, but comes in handy sometimes. I only have to cart this about 2 km's, so no big deal.

Dave, the fire has been out for 2 weeks, but I was tempted to light it last night.

We lit the fire today, 13 degree max today, bring on global warming

Split about 8 metres of wood today. Got a lend of a petrol splitter and stacked it all up. got about 3 metres left to do. Absolutely buggered!

Been at it again, got a couple of loads on the weekend. Intending to build up over the next month then split it all for Winter 2016. I've got enough for this year already dry.
