Nice load of wood Greg.
You have me seriously considering converting my U.P. cabin over to wood heat. It uses propane now and costs a fortune to heat when we go up during the winter months. I have access to around 35,000 acres and am free to take as much of the deadfall as I want.

I see the ever vigilant guard dog is guarding the valuable fuel. He sure earns his keep.

Darren,
If you are hinting that you were born in 1972, you are making me feel really old. The reason I bought that magnetic base was because I was buying my tools to start college...whippersnapper.

Dave, my half is for the winter after next. I usually burn oak which is best seasoned for two years, this load is mostly maple though.
The rest came this morning, A new climbing toy for Saddie.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

Yesterday my builder arrived with his chain saw he had stripped the thread for the blade retaining stud. So its given me something different to do for a change.
A quick lash up on the drill to make it secure, then open up the hole.
Tap a 10mm thread.
Take a length of 10mm studding, turn it down to 8mm and cut a thread on it.
Job done, possibly stronger than the original.
Now i wonder when the other one is going to go ?????
