A Sawbuck State of Mind

Not in the limelight as much as the power tools, our sawbuck still does great work. Today, we cut big wood from the recent red maple project, as well as a bunch of kindling, some of which was brought up over the fall and winter. The sawbuck allows for cutting a great deal of wood in a short time while elevating all the biomass. It's a great time saver, as well as much better on our backs!!

Work in progress

Some splitting remains, as does moving the wood up, but we had a lovely morning for dropping the last of the four red maple quad trunks, about 45 degrees at7 a.m. It's nice to see the sun, which has been hidden for much of the month.

Another great hour

With an hour of work this a.m., we dropped the third of the quad-trunk red maple a bit northwest of the house. The previous two drops occurred last fall. The morning's tree fell, then got cut and split. We're happy with our efficiency for the first big cutting project of 2025!!!
