    how much wood do you use per day?

    10-18 medium splits and I put some one piece all-nighters on before bed. Also have an insert that heats the whole place great.

    It's our state tree here! Produces a really nice flower. And is "FAIR" firewood indeed. Burns quick. The tree i worked up had been struck by lightning. Not sure for others but its been a brut to split up.

    Oh yeah. I think you'll like it. Ain't the same without one. I use it constantly now. From branches to big rounds to stacking firewood. Love the hand extensions!

    It has been a good day. Came across a nice old saw! Got two last rounds to split up my tulip poplar for the season. Got a heck of a good start for the next season. Kicking my feet up for the evening no more splitting for the year!!!

    Tell me about Axes....

    Love the Jersey and Michigan style axe heads. 3-3 1/2 axe and 6-8lb mauls. Can't beat em! And a hickory handle. Nothing better. Would like to try an ash one sometime!
