So what sort of wood burns best? Well there is an old anonymous poem which answers this very question: LOGS TO BURN Logs to burn, logs to burn, Logs to save the coal a turn Here's a word to make you wise, When you hear the woodman's cries. Never heed his usual tale, That he has good logs for sale, But read these lines and really learn, the proper kind of logs to burn. OAK logs will warm you well, If they're old and dry. LARCH logs of pine wood smell, But the sparks will fly. BEECH logs for Christmas time, YEW logs heat well. SCOTCH logs it is a crime, For anyone to sell. BIRCH logs will burn too fast, CHESTNUT scarce at all HAWTHORN logs are good to last, If you cut them in the fall HOLLY logs will burn like wax You should burn them green ELM logs like smouldering flax No flame to be seen PEAR logs and APPLE logs, they will scent your room. CHERRY logs across the dogs, Smell like flowers in bloom But ASH logs, all smooth and grey, burn them green or old; Buy up all that come your way, They're worth their weight in gold. Note that all woods burn better when seasoned and some burn better when split rather than as whole logs. In general the better woods for burning that you are most likely to come by (including non-native species) are: Apple and pear – burning slowly and steadily with little flame but good heat. The scent is also pleasing. Ash – the best burning wood providing plenty of heat (will also burn green but you should not need to do this!) Beech and hornbeam – good when well seasoned Birch – good heat and a bright flame – burns quickly. Blackthorn and hawthorn – very good – burn slowly but with good heat Cherry – also burns slowly with good heat and a pleasant scent. Cypress – burns well but fast when seasoned, and may spit Hazel – good, but hazel has so many other uses hopefully you won’t have to burn it! Holly – good when well seasoned Horse Chestnut – good flame and heating power but spits a lot. Larch – fairly good for heat but crackles and spits Maple – good. Oak – very old dry seasoned oak is excellent, burning slowly with a good heat Pine – burns well with a bright flame but crackles and spits Poplar – avoid all poplar wood – it burns very slowly with little heat – which is why poplar is used to make matchsticks. Willow – very good – in fact there is growing interest in biomass production of coppiced willow as a fuel.

hello again i,ve got a silverline splitting maul and the head has fallen off and want to repair it to use as a wedge and was thinking of re attaching with araldite or would tetrosyle fibafill be stronger i know i,v posted about this before but its like a nagging nail and want to repair it cheaply and as i,ve still got the shaft & head i would like to do a decent repair and get the satisfaction of fixing something that was broken etc as my money is very limited and saving for new braces for my chainsaw pants etc any input would be greatfully recieved oh and where to get the best braces/cheapest braces from so i can order asap etc as my new pants pull my undies down lol fed up off pulling my pants up etc
