I sure do thank ya, I figured it was the splinters, sweetgums just rips aprt in big chunks. After you split a bunch of it you have enough kindlin for the year. The greener it is the bigger the chunks ripping off.

Yooper, I love Ironwood (Eastern Hophornbeam) We have that here also, tough as hell to split, burns hotter than coal. But this wood was not it.
