I use to do it that way, years ago. Now i got tired watching you do it.lol Gotta have my splitter.
When the wood splits like that, hand splitting is fun. Its when you get into some large biatch of a piece that takes 12 dozen wacks just to break off one corner.
LOl, I'll Second that45 reasons I do not need a log splitter yet
key word: yet
lemme know when you're 50 if you feel you need one.
Not going to lie and brag.. there are definitely some crotches and some nappy stuff that gets demoted to bonfire, that if I had a splitter, would probably make it into the indoor stove. (Sometimes ya just have to noodle away with the saw).
I just had to replace the handle on that Tru-temper to a wooden handle as it broke (they say lifetime guarantee, but we all know how that works out.)
I am tempted to try that Fiskars axe, but I am just so darn comfortable with this one that I don't think I will ruin a good thing just yet.
I sure wish the elm and locust that I cut in Nebraska split like that. I'd love to have lined up a few of my big rounds for the same guy to try.
