My buddy and I were discussing the allowed blood alcohol content for driving (purely hypothetically) and how it varies across countries and then we stumbled upon the question in the title. Would be curious to hear if you guys know any good examples.

That’s interesting. Around here, people who own a bit (or a lot) of forest often have central heating not powered by gas but by a large wood stove that will take half a metre pieces, gets filled up, burns that and fills water buffers with the heat worth half a week up to a week. My neighbour e.g. owns a harvester, a tractor and all the other right tools for forest work because he has a few hectares and he’ll of course use his own wood for his house as a by-product. I have a little wood stove that I light for fun, cozy evenings and emergencies and I make my firewood myself as well, on a much smaller scale than him. When the weather is nice I’ll put my log splitter, my large saw, chainsaw and everything else you need on my trailer and head into my bit of forest and split up some storm damaged trees or some trees I’ve felled before bird protection time. I need a few certifications so the insurance pays if I saw my foot off, but everybody around here has those, so yeah, it’s just a pasttime. How are you allowed to make you of your forest then, or, say, thin out the growth or something like that that’s just good maintenance?
If you want to do maintenance that’s allowed but if you are cutting down a tree for other purposes you need permission (And be a certified logger for large trees). Our main forestry service is government owned so firewood is pretty cheap, cheaper than owning the equipment to make your own definitely. If you wanna use your forest you can rent it out for example to some logging firm if your goal is to make money. I’m just happy to chill in my forest though.
