Hello all,
I am still pretty new to the firewood game.
I do have about 15+ cords under my belt though.
I tried a wedge and sledge on some knotty stuff one day, and it sucked and seems dangerous.
My routine has become:
split everything I can with the splitting axe
the rounds that are too tough get thrown aside
then I rip them down the middle with the saw when I'm done, and they can usually be split from that point with the axe.
Any reason some people want to beat the crap out of a wedge?
Granted it doesn't make a mess like the saw does.
