That's an reproduction of a old tool

Those strips in the bark makes the wood dry fast, I use it on all that are to thin to split.

26"

Strangely they used inches as a measurement on the Norwegian page.

I have many more to come, the power company is clearing out all the wood on some part of the rivers that I own and its not to fun when you cant control the volume of firewood that has to be processed and stacked on to pallets.

The reason the clear the wood is to prevent flood damage if they can't control the river, trees come loose and can block the water.

Going to be a lot of pallets...

The plan was to scrap the digger and keep the tractor but it was in very good shape, but it has a leak from the transmission so I have to split it. Much work, I might just sell the digger, it is only a few minutes to take it off. Here in Norway nobody except hobbyists uses tractor based diggers, the sale completely died when 6 - 8t excavator's came in the mid eighties.
