In August I grabbed a small load of freshly cut elm. Tried to split it then and it tore more than split; a stringy, ragged mess. So on the advice seen here, I put it aside waiting for a freeze.
This morning it was clear, cold, and bright. 19°F, or 2°F with wind chill. Perfect. Went out, set up, and it all popped apart cleanly and easily. I had it all split and restacked quickly, plus which it let me dig out a couple of bigger oak rounds that were at the bottom of the pile.
Thanks for the advice, guys. Worked out perfectly.
