I do this kind of woodworking as a hobby. A lot of the material I use has been riven or split from firewood or yard trees. I mostly use dry or half dry wood, but sometimes also green stuff. It is a bit time consuming, but not that much when I take into account that I don't need to be transporting stuff to a sawyer and back home, then to a shop with jointers and planers and whatnot. I can do it all in my home shop with a handful of tools whenever I want. Here's a gallery of a firewood project I made for a contest earlier this year: https://m.imgur.com/gallery/TCgqd https://m.imgur.com/gallery/TCgqd
