[QUOTE="haveawoody, post: 3719332, member: 70667"] turnkey4099, You must have a smallish wedge to have to keep turing elm to get it split. Even a big wedge though has the occasional multi feed bits so don't feel to bad. I split lots of rock elm and it's low in ugly fibres so rare for me to have to turn one, American elm is another story. All the elm i do stays at chunky size mode and becomes long burn things so less splitting is always a good thing with elm. Rock elm and Red Elm make excellent chunky night wood, i would rate as #1 and #2 for the job. IMO better than hickory for both. [/QUOTE]
