    Did some splitting today, and ran across this....... IMG_20160703_123320_939.jpg
    The splitter bogged a little, then did the job. It's in several pieces now. :thumbs:

    Turn that crotch around and let the splitter wedge go between the 2 branches. That works best for me.

    That's how I do 'em too, but hey, some of these guys split vertically! So apparently there is more than one way to split a crotch too!
