Living on a farm skills


One thing you should certainly learn when living on a farm in Slovakia is how to get your winter wood stock ready.
You need:
1) a lot of wood (12 - 20 cubic metre if you like it hot as we do)
2) a good working motorsaw
3) a new saw chain (every year is nice)
4) a decent axe
5) two people (plus a babysit because this is no work for a child)
and a nice neighbour who teaches you the art of using and maintaining a motorsaw because sawing and splitting wood for dummies hasn't yet been written.
