    Ok, it's not my newest vid, but new to you guys :) I tried to capture how processing firewood makes me fell... which is of course pretty epic.



    Cheers!

    I split all my wood by hand :) That was over at my Dad's house. I will admit, we got into some crazy gnarley stuff that we did wind up using the splitter on since we were running out of daylight.

    Last weekend my brother and I bucked and split over 2 cord by hand. He is recovering from a broken foot, so I figured I split a cord and a half myself.

    I split everything by hand too. I love the workout - and so does my girlfriend. :smoke:

    I wish that were my saw, that is my brother's 3120XP (Well, I'm not sure the exact model number but it's a former version of their ~120 displacement) that he bought at a flea market for $400!!! Came equipped with a 42" bar. I do like my 455 Rancher though, it's a great general purpose saw but the 372XP is calling my name and it's on my wish list. My wife has already told me that Santa's going to have a full bag this year. :)

    Yeah it looked a little bigger than a 455... :D I was thinking 2100cd or 3120xp. $400 is a steal! :dex:

    Hope Santa makes you a happy woodcutter! :)

    Just went out to fill my splitter up with gas for tomorrow - then I watch this video. Deep thoughts of manhood questioning...
