    Went out for another load today. It wasn’t too busy with only 3 others out there but the place must have been crazy over the weekend here seeing how much has gone. It was a long weekend here as well. There is still plenty of wood here but it is disappearing quickly.

    Went out again today for another load. This is possibly my last load before winter as I have other jobs around the house as well as a bit of splitting.

    That would be a plentiful supply for a NH winter, too! Will the splits be dry enough?

    Love it! Your firewood down there always looks like it was sunset when you snapped the pic.

    Great thread HuskyMatt . Curious as to what saw(s) you are using. Any pics of them in with the wood?

    Very nice work. What are your winter's like there? I'm sure there nothing like what I'm use to. Awesome looking area, one of the places I would actually want to visit.

    Our winters have nothing on what you blokes in the north have. We only get the very occasional dust of snow but it is still cold with a lot of single figure days ( Celsius ). It is a great country we have

    I use that short bar for when I’m camping. The saw fits in a case I put on the roof of the car.[​IMG]

    Good work. Every time I see someone Working in the bush in Australia, I worry they will encounter one of those deadly funnel web salt water kangaroos we read about.
