EastCoastLumberjack
Rod Cumberland is the Owner/Operator of East Coast Lumberjack and is a graduate forester (BScF 1990 from UNB). He has swung an axe competitively since 1986 and has been a member of the final 12 competitors in national STIHL(R) Timbersports (R) series in Canada. Rod also operates an arborist tree service and has taught chainsaw safety courses to chainsaw operators over the past 35 years. In the mid 1980's, Rod also spent hours watching Bob Hetherington of New Maryland, NB make his ash axe handles. They became fast friends, and when Bob retired from making handles due to eye problems, Rod helped Bob and eventually began to make handles himself.
