    He’s had permission to take down some trees if you want some just cut what you want and take it
    I’m well and truly knackered .
    Cut what I can with my little saw and probably scrounged in the region of 5 ton in small pieces
    Van to empty as well yet
    Not something you like to see but they were coming down and I needed wood .
    Day splitting n stacking tomorrow

    Nice! A little hydraulic help is always good. A bit of patience with a sharp chain & you can do a lot of work with a smaller saw/bar.
