Took me longer to try and post the pics than it did to bust the wood and I still cant get them to show up. Gonna go study up on it.

If your talking about my attempt at pic posting, the big one is still there(tornado take down)SS found it and we are gonna nibble at it saturday.
The stacks were split with a hydraulic.
 
Yep nibblin with the maul. Splitter is loaned to a family member. He put a new battery on changed oil and put on some new used tires so I cant rush him. I figure I will split at least 2 a day till they r gone I got 6 yesterday in hour and half.
Believe it or not some of the big rounds closest to the camera will split in half with 2-3 strikes,some is like rubber. The best way i have found to hand split that stuff is split it in half then go around it radially so it looks like pie. then the pie gets split crossways 3x. One round makes 45 pieces

My 2011-2012 pile - NW Minnesota

I count about 14 cords in this pile with quick math. Another 2 cord is sitting out there now waiting to be processed and stacked. Should have a bit left over for next season.
