It is only a small burner so he could probably sneak out what he needs without it being noticed.

Joiners workshop down the lane next to us and he chucks loads of off cuts out as well so can do the same there take the odd bit on a weekend.

We don't burn it as much as it tends to spit, only when we're out of logs.

Should have enough to last till it gets warm enough... If not I get to go have some fun :D

A chainsaw is involved as are trees.

Just for those reading while they are fun to use they are deadly machines and even more deadly when twinned with a tree.

They should not be treated as a toy, but with utmost respect.

Make sure your chains are sharp and correctly tightened avoid cutting with the tip and think about where you are cutting and what will happen when the cut is made.

Is it under compression or tension? Does it need to be relieved a bit before the cut?

H&S bit over

Also wear PPE!

Mister Weazle uses the chainsaw too, but his favourite bit is using the long-handled axe (also new log-splitting gizmo).

I suspect the neighbours dread it because one of our Jack Russells goes into a joyful frenzy on wood-chopping days and has to help her Dad by running round in circles barking non-stop, snatching up any large chippings and 'killing' them.
