50+ yesterday, 27 and windy now. After tomorrow, the extended forecast is looking very promising.

Things are blooming.

Don’t spoon whittlers and bowl turners kill each other for those?

Old OXO knives with rubber handles getting sticky so I cut the handles off and made Amboyna burl replacements

Next step is to cut it to 16-18”, some of the logs will fall apart and no more splitting others will need a split or three. If I had an outdoor boiler it would be just cut to length. It works great! I have split several trees with it and fed the chipper the whole tree.

what are your next steps? cutting and more splitting? is that splitter working well? i thought about such an attachment to be able to chip junk wood with my smaller chipper.

I started breaking down logs with the Atom splitter.

Snow in the forecast, 2”s, 58 and sunny yesterday. Gorgeous day.

Very proper!

50 tomorrow. Hopefully that will melt some snow. All my paying work has been postponed due to snow banks. :(

It’s called s course, in my neck of the woods.
