Congrats on the end of your "dry spell"!

C'mon.. I'm trying to behave myself..

 

I still think back fondly about the first piece of ash I split. It was pretty well seasoned though I was very green. I learned a lot back then. It’s all in the technique when you’re mauling through it. A slight angle in the right spot, a little English as they say and it will yield to your will. Though I’ve coaxed many more splits since that time, all special in their own way, there was nothing quite as magical as that first one.

 

Must have been good, made most of your pics sideways...

 

I hear some folk like getting, and splitting their ash vertically...none of this horizontal stuff for them...but I think that is "BS"

 

buZZsaw congrats you on your first. Some nice looking splits!
AWHNR!

 

You are a word smith for sure!

 

My ax was wrapped in a sheath but I took it off in order to split it better!

 

I hear some Long Island boys have to pay to get ash!

 

I will neither confirm, or deny if Ive ever paid for a piece of ash.

 

I have to admit, I did put a little thought into it! A couple things I either had to reword or face the wrath of the ban hammer... there’s a very narrow path to be walked when talking firewood and innuendo simultaneously
