Yes, it’s a good feeling, feeling “rich” and the sore muscles and back hurts in a good way 
My father mostly complains hes not having the strenght to help me nowadays, but he sure have the energy to run in the way, and sit and rest on various stuff, and, ofcourse: complain on me not cutting the same lengths on the wood

Yes, I recognize that, that is kind of the way it goes here too. But I am also happy to still have my dad around, I would miss it later on so I try to look past the annoyances. Probably makes your dad happy as well being a part of his son’s achievements otherwise he wouldn’t be there.

Sometimes it can be little annoying, for example when you have to break in to a sheet metal toolbox, because your father has sit and rest on it.

Another good reason to keep chairs around where you work

Get a folding canvas chair with a cup holder in the arm and put a beer in it. Why should an old man have to sit his bony ass on a metal box? Some day I’m going to get old and need a place to sit as well.

The thinking chair is very important. Kristijan and I are adherents to that philosophy.

I totally agree, I have old officechairs with five wheels (had one with four wheels but it is too easy to tip over on an uneven floor) and replaced the original wheels with bigger ones, but I can’t help wondering if Tom is on to something there with that cupholder though…

Find some of those big solid rubber treaded caster wheels and you’d have an All Terrain thinking chair.

That is a good idea, perhaps not for Kristijan since he lives high on a hillside

So true wife often wonders why the garden chairs are spread over the garden, in the shed, in the shop, has your father visited today?
Some years ago i had put together a small foundry furnace from fire bricks and fireproof mortar, that time i really don’t laughed when i discovered that my father had used it to sit on in a unsupervised moment…

Goran,
I see peer pressure really got you back to fuel prep. Maybe it was the shame of your confession. Anyway, you are ready to ride.

Yesterday, among other things, I prepared several bags of wood chips with a screw chipper, of course wood gas drive, the bag weighs 35-40 kg, the chopping time is less than 1 minute, the capacity of the chipper is at least 50 kg/min, depending on the thickness of the wood.
While I am loading the remaining pruned branches and sticks onto the trailer, I open the cover on the gasifier, so it heats up by itself and the blower only needs to be switched on for a short time.

Haha, maybe it was the peer pressure, or the gasoline price, the chevy is a heavy drinker, anyway nothing beats the feeling of driving on wood.
