lino6 and Nay-Dmax are going to build one on their place;D
Then Lino can crane truck it to knockwood.......
Probably need a 40 foot for Knockwood with all the pyros in attendance!

We are nearly back in Victoria now so reckon the wood pile will be diminishing quickly in a few hours.... Could smell plenty of fires burning in Brisbane so those poor banana benders must have been feeling it. Maybe if NSW didn't have daylight savings the cold weather would stop at the border?

While I liked my Stihl miniboss, I love the new woodboss with the tungsten blade. Nearly got next Winter sorted.
I thought today was the last day for collection, but still got another month;D
Could be a beer and bbq on offer for any one that wants to help split it.......

Hire a splitter mate, much easier.

I have some I need to split and stack. Trying to do a deal with a mate who is after some off cuts and his dad has a hydraulic splitter. For a fruit bin full of pine I should be able to grab his and split it all.

Tried the splitter once, definitely easier and faster, however 2 things for me:
1 - I need the exercise
2 - hydraulic splitters don't eat BBQ sausages or drink beer......

Happy to eat sausages while you chop wood! You would still probably get some weights in lifting the blocks, then stacking in your OCD style.

I'd kill myself (Mt wife would help) if I had to cut that much timber just to get through winter.

Geez, a lot to be said for living in nice sunny WARM Queensland.
