    Nice work. That splitter looks mean. Did you modify it or that's the way it came? Some good BTU there

    My dogs are looking at me like "why is our human rolling on the floor laughing?"
    My Wife splits vert, I only do when da logs can't be lifted without testing the limits of the abdominal and lower back areas.

    I love helpers and sometimes non human ones are the best ones to have around. Looks like buddy's getting it done. My two are complete opposites. One evacuates the area the second he sees me head towards a power tool and the other I have to put in the house if I'm using a saw or the whipper snipper, not because she's scared, but because she is so nosy and wants to see what's going on every second I'm afraid she would get hurt. I do keep her out for mowing and splitting though and she's right next to me the entire time.
