  1. Here's some other stuff I'm not sure about aswel. It's very hard whatever it is...
  2. Any idea what type of wood this is? Its freshly cut and seems very dry and has a bit of weight to it....
  3. I have a homelite petrol saw that I use if I'm out in a field somewhere. But when I'm home cutting logs I use a Makita battery saw. It's great. I have 4 5ah batteries and 2 3ah batteries. Double charger is a must. In-between letting batteries charge I do a bit of chopping and stacking. With the occasional chain sharpen. I already had the batteries with work tools so thought it was the cheapest solution for me. There's possibly better battery saws about than Makita. But it does the job for me.
  4. I've been burning a bit of hawthorn recently and that is a nice slow burner leaving good coals. Might be worth a try to keep in at night. I put on a shovel full of smokeless coal at night and the stove is still hot in the morning. The glass stays clean which I believe is a good sign?
  5. You need a system to get a year ahead. I have 4 pallet crates that paving slabs come in. I put next season's wood in them split and stacked. Covered top with sheet of ply to keep worst of rain off. Leaving the sides open. Once dry enough they'll go on the pallet in the garage. This year's dry/ready to burn wood is on a pallet stacked up in the garage. I've then got two log stores which are full of seasoned wood. One at front of house and one out back. The one out the front gets topped up from the garage. The one out the back will be emptied first then filled up with anymore green wood I collect and left to dry. Luckily I enjoy collecting, chopping and stacking wood 🪓👍🤣 So personally I'd get it chopped and stacked asap.
  6. Good shout That's from Google Street view of the tree...
  7. Yes I'm not bothered as I burn anything that's seasoned. Just thought I had got a bit better at identifying trees in log form lol
  8. Would you say that this is ash or oak? (From a different site)
  9. It's bloody heavy for sure
  10. Hello everyone hope your all well. Just picked up some logs and was wondering what they are. Thanks
