    It's going to be difficult to swing with the wood piled there. :cool:

    Oh boy, that old one is Supa-low! Great for mega rounds to roll up onto the beam, but most splitting work would've been best with that splitter up a good couple of feet, or close to a meter;)


    That new one will definitely save you time. :yes:

    That’s just it... these English speaking for-rainers never pronounce it “rah” or “ray” or “ree” but sorta like us- if we all lived in Massachusetts... “meetah!”

    Yeah, then there's all those weird dialects, especially in the UK. Some are basically a different language.

    Yes mate in the depths of winter now and looking forward to spring. I’ve got a day off again today but the weather gods aren’t playing nice. I’ve got plenty of dry stuff but just wanting to get out and split that green stuff up so it can dry for a year or two
