Thread: Firewood. Pffft!

Geez Tim you are supposed to be taking it easy, looks like you need a hydraulic splitter, not an axe/splitter.

The timber certainly looks interesting, hopefully it keeps the colours as it dries.

Cheers

yeah, well I am taking it easy, Hydrolic splitters are nice but this lot splits so easily its faster by hand anyway. As far as the colour goes we'll see when it dries as you say. You know something? Since your visit it seems more firewood heads to the shed than the fire these days. If this keeps up we (Pam and I) will have to go cold. With that in mind; is it alright if I tell her it's all your fault? Looking forward to catching up....

hi people i am new to this forum so i hope i dont give anyone a splinter.
Logsplitters ? are the ones coming in from china worth worrying about or should i just buy a locally made one,
and is Mulberry wood any good for tool handles?
cheers in advance

Hi melwood. You'd probably be better off starting a new thread with these questions. I don't have any experience with mechanical wood splitters
My wood splitter is the brawn and sweat style. As far as mulbry goes it is very nice Fairly dence (hard) It's look is much like elm but the colour is almost treated pine but more to the goldy yellow side of green.
Anyhow start a new thread and someone may well have some picks for you to see.
