Usually! But there are many exceptions; compare willow to a mature yew for example. But that will have been fairly hard, yes. Luvverly firewood

Many years ago on here a guy put up a pic of him holding his thumb in his opposite hand that he'd beheaded that morning 😬
-
What a work site 👍
-
Thor thought of that! At least some models - I had a Mignon - have a foot pedal that brings the blade down until it touches something, e.g. a hand; then it stops. To effect splitting you need both hands on the handle. In practice you use the pedal to get the blade to hold the log in place before using both hands to effect splitting but I found it painfully slow

Bossy little buggers but intriguing; could watch them for hours

Fair comment and I wouldn't employ someone to use my machine the way it is. It doesn't have auto return. If it had that I'd probably go the whole 'they're my hands, mind your own business' hog and rig up a foot pedal. At least I could have both hands on the log. Oh I wish...

It's a bit eye level but I haven't poked one out yet 🙄
-
And you haven't even altered the wobbly operating lever on the splitter. I know why it's like that but I couldn't change mine fast enough; doesn't it do your head in?!
-
One major reason that more reuse - as opposed to recycling - doesn't happen is that it often doesn't make economic or ergonomic sense to move 'stuff' from the man whose rubbish it is to the man whose gold it could become; cheaper in all respects for the gold digger to buy new

Knowing how those things grow - that's not much in 7 years though the grass is probably slowing it - I'd take off the right hand stem at origin. The left stem will slowly straighten as it develops

Bottle feeding..... pet lambs; aaaaaargh!!! They'll rapidly become pest lambs!
-
Quads? 😮 Good luck to the wee mites. (Do you see the Scottishness there just to execute a smooth transition between topics on the same thread? 😂)
-
I hope you're right. On a sentimental level I, as a true born Englishman, don't want to lose Scotland from the union; it's a beautiful country with so much to offer. On a more hardnosed level I struggle to see anyone gaining from independence except for the acquisition of smug grins north of the border

Now you're proper showing off. Keep going!

Loads of trainers do. How about Landskills Training in Dorking, Surrey?

Blimey; what a bad day for the Aussies. He was the most incredible spinner; for me he and Murilitharan stand out in a class of their own. 52; that's way too young. RIP mate 😞
-
I love his vids. Pretty sure he lives in the Allegheny Mountains.
-
Awareness of or conscience about?
-
Wow. That's extraordinary
-
😂 I'm sure she'll see it that way. Really 🤥
-
Stop messing about Steve - tell us what you think! I wonder what Vlad's new best mate Xi Jinping is thinking now... apart from 'I need to be more careful about choosing my friends'!
-
It does make perfect sense; I'm sure ours - sorry, Hers - will be the same. Cheers
-
Ah - that may be the case. Not my car and no such thing was mentioned to Her Maj by the dealership. I'll have to follow her one day and we'll find out (when I drive into the back of her with an overloaded Navara and 2-ton trailer 😂)
