    Looks exactly like my Troy Bilt and since both are mad y MTD, other than paint, they are the same. That being said, they are great splitters. As previously stated, the wings are rather flimsy and I have no idea why MTD has not modified them. You will love this splitter and the Honda motor is extremely dependable.

    Shawn, your yard has to be looking really great about now! I can just picture it with the mill, logs, lumber, firewood and now a splitter to help with the firewood. I can also picture Amy and your sister splitting the wood! Will you be racing them?

    :rofl: :lol: Yes I'm sure the good old John Henry/ Paul Bunyan race will have to happen at some point. I'll have to let Amy and my sister get a little more practice on the splitter first to make it a fairer fight. :D :axe:

    It is starting to look like a wood hoarder's paradise around here, isn't it? :smoke:I think the only thing I need at this point is more storage for the spoils. :)

    When it happens, we need pictures! Video is best. Keep the dog tied. He could get hurt with all the flying splits.
