Må følge opp NRK-ranten for å si fra at jeg har flere hobbyer.
Her er dagens beste bolle fra verkstedet.

09/04/26: Not only the splitting continues, but so does the chopping. Over the last two days I removed the sapwood and bark with an axe of a single larch log, yielding another 5 colums in 2,6-3m for a new fence . I'll probably leave all the columns as they are round and blunt on both sides, since only 1 or 2 would be thick enough to be cut into two pieces. The thickest column (the bottom one, yes it is only one piece) is badly bent, so I'll probably leave it whole and use it as a special corner column. Even if there are only five columns, it still takes some work to get them into this shape.
Luckily this time the sapwood of this log was already pretty rotten, so I saved myself a few calories and some additional hours of chopping.

09/04/26: Our woodpile (stacked by my brother) is still standing, untouched.
But not for much longer, the wood is now completely dry.

09/04/26: The wood splitting continues. Over the last weeks and month, I've splitted further wooden spelts from arolla pine (ca. 3/4) and larch wood (1/4). I didn't count it but overall I have now about 100 handsplitted additional spelt in the sizes 1,5m, 1,7m and 2m ready for another new fence project.
But I'll need at least twice as many spelts for renewing and increasing our garden fence.
On average, it takes me 15 minutes to split a single fence spelt (from the log to the finished spelt with removed sapwood and heartwood). This doesn't include the final adjustments carving to the fence. The spelts with lots of branches and twists take longer to work out than the straight, knot-free wood which sometimes only take a few minutes. It's always a bit frustrating when a spelt gets too thin or breaks unexpectedly, especially when you've already spent several minutes on it.
