    Katie is a working machine. Probably one of the best wood splitters I've seen on youtube. Strength and stamina. Impressed.

    Katie you always amaze me. You have come so far with your skills and abilities, you were very impressive as you chopped that wood and loaded it in the truck. You and Greg are one hard working couple. I enjoy the interaction with the animals and the look forward to following the progress on the deck. Have a great week ahead and be safe.

    You need a wood splitter. Wood seems to be a primary source of heat for you. A wood splitter will add years to your life by helping to preserve your joints and back.

    I recently learned something about chainsaws and falling trees I never knew about and quite frankly is pretty cool!!! Most all chainsaws have a perpendicular line to the bar on the body of the saw, between the handles...which is meant to be used when cutting your directional notch to use as a sight line guide for where you want the tree to fall! Now it's not gna make the tree fall exactly, all trees are different but it's a neat trick to help you sight in when making that notch. You learn something everyday!! 🇨🇦🇺🇲💯✌

    If any underground services enter your home (gas, hydro, telephone, water, sewage), find out where they are before digging. You had to place marker tape minimum 30 cm above the pipes the first time after it's easy to dig a hole later without breaking anything.

    My dad and I have always used yellow cedar for fence posts or anything to do with outside red Cedar which is not as many because my dad only burnt yellow cedar for firewood it always burnt the hottest and left hardly any ash in this wood stove so that's what he burnt was strictly yellow cedar and seems that he worked for logging company since he was 15 years old he got all his firewood for free and they even bucked it up a lot of times at the way past the other side of Mount Washington they would buck it up and then after work we would all go up there and load it up on their trucks and bring it home My dad and my uncle operated the first faller bunchers that came onto the island my uncles was track and my dads was tires they were the highest seniority guys in timber West and I tell you they may he made a lot of money running that machine he started driving log and truck when he was 15 years old because he lied of his age until they got the followed bunchers my dad's name was even written on a rock Bluff on the Canyon by the backside of Mount Washington because he had a trailer turnover and lean up against the Rock Bluff because the loader operator loaded him upside heavy and he was lucky he didn't go over the other way because his truck and trailer would went right down into the canyon it was written Norman on the side of the Rock Bluff My uncle Malcolm used to run the tugboat on Comox Lake until they stopped running tugboats
