How big is your saw? I have a petrol-powered Stihl with a 14 inch bar, which will deal with most things. If your bar is too short, rotate the logs, or, if too heavy, rotate the saw.

As for the axe, practice, practice, practice... Pretend the logs you are splitting is the head of someone you hate or something. I find that works a treat... :laugh:

My bar is about 8 inches battery powered, adequate for anything else, except the remains of this tree. And yes, I'm practising with the axe! :hyper:

I have a question for peeps on here who order items from USA. Much as I like sewing, I like to occasionally buy clothes that are unusual and supporting people in the textile industry. In this case it is fairly traded and from Nepal.

If I ordered this item https://store.greatergood.com/colle...ucts/46397-flowering-vines-fleece-wrap-jacket

What sort of import taxes will I pay? Or how do I find out please? Better still how do I find a UK supplier?

I don't know, but I'm thinking about buying one for Mrs. GA.
Quite her style.
