  1. Never seen one ( except on telly) but would a Harvester and chainsaw work, only take a few days.
  2. When I worked in an estate sawmill many years ago (late 70s) we creosoted our fencing stakes by putting them in a cradle then into a big tank full of the horrible black stuff and then lit a fire below the tank and boil it in for the day, of course you would be splashed by the creosote and going home on the bus nobody would sit near you and complain about the smell.
  3. Been there done that lost the nail a bit later some blue air at the time and very sore.
  4. When wood is wet or green, it will need air circulation to allow it to dry. Sometimes wood will dry faster outside, especially if the weather is sunny and dry. If you stack it under a cover or in a shed, make sure it has plenty of air circulation. Firewood logs can dry indoors but it may not dry as fast as it would if it was outside in the sun.Stacking firewood logs is more work than just throwing it in a pile, but there are advantages to stacking it and it may be worth the extra work. Stacked wood take up less space and also can position the logs so they get better air circulation and dry faster. When stacking wet or green wood it will dry faster if you allow open space on both sides of the stack. If you stack it against a flat surface, such as a wall, fence or another stack, keep at least a few inches of space for air to circulate between the stack and the surface
  5. A little film that was made by the council I work for.
