[QUOTE="trailmaker, post: 4064499, member: 23316"] My preferred system is a stump with a tire on top, for the aforementioned reasons. I have lots of splitting axes and mauls ranging from 2.25lbs up to about 12lbs. If I'm splitting "easy wood" I use the lighter axes (no sense in swinging more weight than necessary). A guy could probably have all his bases covered with a 4 pound splitting axe, a six or eight pound maul, and a few wedges. Always wear eye protection, and hearing protection if you're pounding wedges. Steel toe boots are a good idea too. [/QUOTE]
