My favourites to burn in open fire:

Beech

Oak

Ash

Yew

Hornbeam, Holly, Birch, Hawthorn

Willow good if bone dry

Love Pine and Conifers for light, and kindling (cypress smells lovely, as do false Cedars, and cedar, of course

Love wood :)

Robinia burns well, too, and gives that delicate pea smell

Walnut pleasant, not hot though

Apple and Pear good, too

Least favourite: Poplar, as unless is it drier than a dry thing it smells like a dirty wet dog!

do any of you guys/gals use pto driven log screws? thinking of buying one.

 

Too slow Dave.

 

I have one and I'm always wrestling with the logs to try and part the stringy stuff that doesn't fully split.

 

Apart from that, if someone wasn't out playing with snow, they'd be crunching numbers for my new Hydraulic one :wave:
