    It’s always the little things

    March 3, 2026 /

    The 2026 firewood production season starts off with the inaugural operation of our log loader deck, grapple and log blocking station. I did loose audio along a portion of the day, so there’s some music to enjoy while watching us go through the motions of producing firewood.

    A cool crisp Sunday morning, about 1ºC. A good time to get some logs that were felled earlier in the summer.

    Wood you believe?

    I find that when I need to take my mind off of the day to day things, I go into the workshop. However with no power, there’s not a lot I’d like to do with manual tools. I do have my chainsaw, so I set about creating some wood chips.
