My father told me my grandfather had a saying “wood warms you three times, once when you cut it, once when you split it, and once when you burn it”. (My grandfather was a timber merchant, and in his youth was felling trees with hand saws and using a team of horses to take the trunks back to the yard. My father and I did once use one of his two man saws to fell a tree that was too big for our chainsaw.)
