| 1112101 | 2010-06-21 12:17:00 | I use to see wedges and axes, etc at wood chopping competitions around BOP district, and also at forestry plantations and mills when I worked for Carter Holt. If not available in retail stores - best bet would be to contact (i.e. email) NZ forestry companies for local suppliers. Try this index (www.indexnz.com) of NZ Forestry companies. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||

| 1112104 | 2010-06-21 12:44:00 | We have a heat pump now, very nice and easy. Agreed. Possibly the OP want's to mount said wedge on a mechanical wood splitter and his wants or needs are totally different to mine. I live in Tokoroa and you can pick up wood free. Apparently some heat pumps may die due to corrosion, misuse or other reasons. Personally I will wait until the OP gets back and explains more. |

| 1112109 | 2010-06-21 20:19:00 | I'm so pleased I don't use indoor heating fuelled by wood any more. I don't have to keep firewood dry. I don't have to go outside to get the firewood. I don't have to collect, split, stack said firewood. I don't have to keep my chainsaw sharp and in fact I sold it. I don't have to dispose of ash left in the wood burner. I don't have to have a trailer to transport firewood so I sold that too which saves on Reg and WOF. The firewood was free so all I had to do was the above tasks. About the only thing I miss was the sound of very hot water landing on the roof as there was a wetback in the wood burner. Not having to get a chimney sweep in was a plus as well now that I think about it. I now live in a Pensioner flat which has no wood burner but is insulated top and bottom. All electric here. My one and only heater is a 1500w bar heater in the Lounge. But what about the Power bill I hear you ask even though you didn't. Got one for $73.28 on the 18th June 2010. This does include my prompt payment discount. And no sex in front of the fire. |
