Cracking open some pine
A bit cooler this January Tuesday. -11ºC with the wind chill. Just warm enough at the start of the afternoon to get out and spend the day sawmilling. With sharp blades, big logs and two people, the work seems to cruise right along.

Sawmill secondary processing firewood and kindling
I mean really, how much work can it be making firewood kindling? Grab a few boards and an axe, chop it up and done. Well that’s the condensed summary version.

Spring saw milling
We had a fairly mild winter so far as snow depth is concerned. Nowhere near the brutal amount that northern New Brunswick got. The lack of snow though has meant that with the cold air, the frost has gone deep into the ground. Which is ok if you are walking and driving machines over the ground but eventually the frost has to leave and it ill make for a soppy, wet mess to deal with. This year’s to do list will involve a lot of water course management.
Monday morning blues.
