    Can't find milk crates here for vertical splitting. Found this very good alternative - they're found everywhere, perfect height, stable and..... NO waffle-butt! Free by dumpster diving at most construction sites. Enjoy, fellow burners. LOL IMG_0179.JPG

    I think the world is coming to an end. The bucket might fall over just because of the Savage effect.

    I was a novice years ago & tried a bucket
    I've learned & evolved since
    Milk crate with a boat cushion is a better height for me ,
    + more stable, heavier duty

    But most of all
    More "Proffesional"
    :D

    It's not how fast you split, it's how well you split fast. Seating is everything.
