    Very impressive 1st post! I see you load by hand :jaw:. Do you split it all by the Fiskars? What do you burn it in? stove, insert fireplace.

    Replaced mine 3 times, first was because it was broke when we got the truck, before getting lucky and finding this free piece of metal on Craigslist.
