Thanks very much for your suggestion.

I don’t use machines for cutting firewood because I am not handy with machines and am not experienced or trained with them and if you are a bit scared of them they are dangerous! 
Using hand tools means I have tranquility, exercise, and far less expense. I can work alone and do not have the palaver of all the safety gear required with chainsaws. Because it requires considerable physical effort I can also take my time to consider the best way to approach a job, rather than rushing in with a chainsaw.

I cut many tons of firewood this way and it keeps me cheerful and our whole house warm throughout the year.

Fun thing to play with

 

 

Downside is is it will get blunt eventually and it  will  be alot   harder/time cosuming/expense  to master the  sharpening of it, than the  sharpening of a chainsaw chain.
