  1. I split about 6 bulk bags of the stuff by hand. It was cut into rings about 14 inches long. It was only when I started splitting it I realised is had a really big twist in it. I don't think a single piece split cleanly. It was green at the time and only took 1 year to season.

    The maul did bounce off a few of the pieces and they got put through the saw bench.

    The bark was really good for kindling.

  2. I put 5 bulk bags of split sycamore on a trailer in an underpass. I didn't use a moisture meter but within a few months it was very dry and about half the weight it started at.

    The underpass is a bit like a wind tunnel and I ended up leaving it for about 12 months anyway. I put it all in a poly tunnel now as it's less likely to get nicked.

  3. I've suffered for the last 31 years and it's only been the last 3-4 that I have the right combination. Piriton tablets with Pirinase nasal spray and any eye drops. Constantly feeling bunged up is the worst feeling and results in a headache and sore nose. Pirinase is much better than beconase and you can get it over the counter. I can enjoy the summers at last.
