Nah I hate it.That's why I've been doing it for 36 years..... I hate chainsaws & axes too.Noisy heavy worthless damm things...
I actually do hate the splitting and stacking part. And moving some to my garage every 2 weeks and re-stacking. And starting a fire first thing in the morning and as soon as I get home from work. But the cutting part, yeah THAT part is a blast!
Started out woodworking (boards) over 40 years ago, and promoted mahself to this new woodworking thing (farwood) a few years ago. I'd say, yes.
No! I don't have a problem! I've been watching and watching this tree next to where I work---it was leaning bad-- and the other night the wind took her down---my blood raced and I told the neighbor I'd be over to take care of it this weekend--meanwhile praying no one beat me to it...ha!
Wrong forum, probably want to go to a site that has real wood burners that actually burn wood. This place has turned into a pellet forum.
Do pellets count? If I burned pellets I'd have rigged up some waterfall type trough so I could pour them in from my warm comfy bed and not have to make those naked runs to the woodburner 3 times a night!
I enjoy hauling a big load of rounds out of the woods. Everything else is meh: Splitting Stacking Moving wood up to the house Building a fire Loading the stove Cleaning out ashes Cleaning the chimney
