I was using my friends log splitter and split about a cord of wood. I had plans to buy my own splitter in the future.
I was at the store and they had a 13 lb. maul for 16.00 so I got it just for back up. I tried it on a few logs and found it to be much easier to split the wood than I thought. It was good exercise and fun as well. From then on I did not use the log splitter any more. I think I can split as fast or faster considering the work maneuvering the logs in the splitter. I was just wondering how many of you prefer a maul to a splitter? With the right technique even the really big stuff is not that difficult with the maul.
