    Welcome to the forum Gweedo996. The pictures are nice and one would find it hard to get bored in that country. It is beautiful.

    As for size of pictures. Sometimes thumbnail and full size turn out identical. I use both, depending on the pictures I'm posting. Usually if lots of pictures I always choose thumbnail. If something I wish to show the best detail then I always go full size.

    Welcome gweedo996. Looks like you will fit right in here! Nice to have another hand splitter around! I'm a Fiskers guy myself, but love the look of the Stihl splitting axe, let's us know how it works for yah,

    Looks like your running Stihl saw's. What saw's ya got, and what saw's ya want?! Stick around here long and you'll have more saw's than you can use!

    I only have the one saw, a Stihl MS271.. it seems to be perfect for what I do so far! its paid for it's self a few times over with the savings from cutting my own firewood!! I think its time to give it a tune up though.. I would be out in the yard right now splitting and stacking, but I need to give these old bones a day off, three weekends in a row.. My weekends are 3 and 4 days long, never thought I would say its nice to sit at my desk in pain.. lol

    Anyway, going to go out and due light duty work for a while, yano drink beer and play with fire.. lol

    It worked, welcome to FHC! Very friendly, knowledgeable group here. Glad to have you!

    -edit- you have a lot of pavers there. Where are they going? Nice fire pit!

    Pavers are being re-purposed, the previous owner of my house did a terrible job trying to use them.. They will be used around the above ground pool.. Project number 71 on my list of stuff to finish!!
