Hmm, should that be lumberjackette?

I got myself a new toy before Christmas. Here on the farm I have use for a chainsaw. Discovered last year I now lack the upper body strength to pull the cord to start my gas powered one. After some research I ordered myself a battery powered one. Just came in from having myself a ball cutting wood for the fireplace. Yeah, I know, I'm weird! Now I get to enjoy the fruits of my labor watching the fire burn.

I used to have a Stihl chainsaw... along with a double-edged axe & a wedge & sledge hammer. Now we live in a townhome in the middle of the city. So we have a gas fireplace...

You should try sculpturing! Maybe you have a hidden talent there?

Skeezyks, I have the axe, wedge and sledge. Lack the upper body strength to use them anymore. Getting old sucks.

Nammu, I'm still mastering using the saw to cut logs. Don't know if I'll ever reach the skill level to sculpt. Nice thought though!
