    This about half of the oak left to split, maybe not even. The rounds on top are 36".

    Looks like fun.
    I see some needs cut too.
    Some real nice looking wood .

    I couldn't stand to see those perfect oak round for very long, they's bug me until split & stacked.

    But a warm day here has been 65 ° & I split sitting down ,
    vertical :yes: LOL :D

    Have fun :)

    Right where I want to be.
    Agreed. I hate leaving Oak in rounds very long. I feel an urgent need to split it ASAP.
    Split some yesterday and today and got it stacked, but 'm moving very slowly.

    Looks good. Are you on the lot that you said you were getting there?

    No, this is behind my house. I ended up not buying the lot because once the snow thawed it was obvious that the majority of the area the 1000ft driveway that needs to go in is wet. It would have been cost prohibitive, especially with the price of other land. Still looking. Kinda hoping to find something like a tear down on a property we like.

    If I had a tractor to lift it I might try horizontal again,
    but it would slow me down quite a bit. :p
