During the summer if I get a hardwood blow down across a trail I just move it off and leave it trailside. I end up with bits of firewood spread all over. Then on a nice day like today when I am in the mood I go out and pick some of it up. This is my 4th stop. White Birch on top of some Red Maple and Yellow Birch

and the 6th stop - Beech and more Yellow Birch

Some of it isn't too pretty

Makes for a good day for an old guy who likes to putter in the woods

Great setup, first for collecting the logs, then for transferring to the bench. Do you use the timber bench to support the logs while you cut them into lengths ready for splitting ? I'd be interested to see your next steps too.

Yes, I block it up on the table with the splitter nearby. Some times I split it and stack it -

And some times I split it into the bucket and stack it in the shed -

I finally pulled my battery out and got everything cleaned up ... When I bought it last July the dealer told be the battery ground to frame was corroded ...

I load tested the nearly 4 year old battery ...

And gave it about 45 mL of water in each vent ...

Then put it all back together with dielectric grease ...

Then I filled a tote and took it down to the creek to give the little fishies a drink ...
