Sawmill secondary processing firewood and kindling

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.

Making the most of what comes along
A neighbour is clearing a recently acquired lake side lot. These logs were all destined for the burn pile. I could not let that happen 🙂 So in a trade for helping clean up the brush, I got to take these logs to the work yard. They are 8 and 10ft lengths. Most likely will all be made into 2×4’s.
