Getting the chopper out

As predicted yesterday, today has been mainly about getting our existing wood chopped up and sorted out for the woodpile before tomorrow’s delivery of yet more logs.

We bought a Bosch electric saw for doing a lot of the work – yes, we could’ve done it with a normal handsaw, but well, there was a huge load of wood to do, so chuff it. Anyway, it’s made life a lot easier – we’ve got through about 80-85% of the wood that needed chopping.

So yes, there’s still some more to do. But we’ve broken the back of it – and stuffed my own back into the bargain – so I can get the rest sorted over the coming week, along with all the logs that’re being delivered tomorrow.

And from now on, well, we’ll just have to be more organised, and chop the stuff as it arrives – or soon after, so that we don’t get in this situation again.
