    If 26 is it and 4 you have, you're on track to get over 50 by years end.

    I split under the light of a couple old Coleman lanterns in the winter, looks like a nice NICE set up you have.

    LOL, I use the floods on the barn plus one portable contractor set. Seems to be enough. Love night splitting. Think it was under 60 degrees and no humidity last night. But will be on vac soon, so not too much more planned for next couple of weeks. But I do know where there is more. :)

    That's the hot setup. I would benefit from this huge come fall, and have often thought of seeing up a couple flood lights on the far side of the garage where my processing area now lies. I have been known to lug a few rounds in to the garage for night splitting, but the effort just outpaces the reward.

    I have been known to do all kinds of things at night. Sometimes 1am. Not splitting though.
