Turning a pile of random logs and branches dumped on my drive way by the tree surgeon into cut and split firewood under the log store, stacked and drying out fully for the winter.
Me too. Love getting out from behind my desk, going out and chopping wood. Chainsaws are great toys.
And we have a hydraulic axe for splitting logs.
These days we have logs delivered which we chop and split at home. We've exhausted our own wood supply. Before it was even more satisfying felling the trees yourself.

Trimming the hedge with an electric trimmer.

I also enjoy sawing through branches.

Trimming the bushes in the back garden. Strangely satisfying when I find another 3 foot of lawn I can use smile
