Someone's been busy with the log splitter!

 

[Pete Askew]

Blimey, that's an impressive pile. And reminds me, I need to order some.

 

[Peter McCullough]

Don't possess a log splitter, a proper wood splitting axe, the old way, love it....!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Respect is due - that's a lot of logs!

 

[Peter McCullough]

Thanks Chris.

That log store photo is my "overflow" store, I've partitioned off a large area of our garage where there's at least twice as much as that amount.

I'm really into it big style.

Splitting logs warms you several times over:
Once when you cut the log
Once when you split the log
Once when you haul the log inside
And finally once when it is burned.

All this warming might be a factor in climate change, eh?

Very nice! My kind of OCD stacking....

 

[Pete Askew]

Actually Dan, wouldn't you agree that the 4th log along on the second row on the left would look better the other way round. What do you think Peter?!

 

[Dan Cattermole]

............ stop it! I may just have to arrange that.. Via photoshop if travel is not possible.... For my own satisfaction that is of course.

 

[Pete Askew]

So, if you see a man in a mask in your back garden wielding an axe, don't worry Peter, it's probably just Dan come to fine-tune your wood stack!

 

[Peter McCullough]

Haha very good Pete.

That log you mention can stay put. I do enjoy axe'ing wood alright, a nice way off getting rid of any anger/aggression/stress.
