[QUOTE="Ronaldo, post: 3762074, member: 49117"] The screw splitters are fast, especially on the easier to split species. When we used it on elm it was not all that efficient. With really stringy wood or nasty crotch wood etc., we would get a lot of smoke, the threads would "strip" out and then catch and try again and you ended up finishing it off with an axe or maul. They do work pretty slick, though--just make sure the stop or arm you have to keep the piece from spinning is substantial. Ask me how I know that is important.:msp_unsure::dizzy: Ron [/QUOTE]
