So I rented a cottage. It has a nice big fireplace. The owner dropped a big Cedar last year so big rounds under other Cedars along the driveway. This wood is well seasoned(dry). I've made some preliminary cuts with a hatchet and can smell the sap-oil within, this is very good wood.
I told him that I would only burn Presto logs in it, but he doesn't know what to do with the rounds because of their size.
He just doesn't want me to start a bonfire-I know that is his concern; It's mine as well.
The rounds are 24" diameter and about 12" vertical.
So I'm looking for the right axe to make the right cuts, maybe around 4" at the triangular width.
Can anyone recommend the right axe for the job? I think it might come out to about 1 and 1/2 cords if I do it right-and good exercise through the Autumn.
