    Its been a while...Ibuprofen and the good doctor from Kentucky were both applied this evening. I do like it when one round fills the bucket though. 20180120_121838.jpg 20180120_123343.jpg

    It was nice out but I prefer it cold enough to not get wet. The splitter started right up though:yes:

    They squealed pretty good. Its the first time I've worked big Hickory and found it can be pretty nasty. The little I have had before was nice straight Fiskars material. This was not.

    Yes those big boys sure add up quickly.

    I prefer to take the ibuprofen before the work, as that keeps the pain from occuring.:yes:

    Is that wedge adjustable? If so I have never seen anything like that before. That's pretty snazzy!!

    not adjustable...just fat and tall enough that it short strokes just about everything which is a good thing with this stuff.
