That's an impressive round. I need a serious wheel barrow upgrade for a few reasons. I bought a newer truck that sits 3 inches taller, the old...
I'm low tech and usually by myself. I can't take large rounds, but with my trusty OLD wheel barrow I can handle rounds much larger than I could...
Interesting. Unless I'm missing something, I haven't seen rounds split from the side.
Same here. Redneckchevy, I'm impressed, and that's some great looking firewood! I have a neighbor, about 85 years old, he hand splits...
I'm new around here, I can't comment on that! But :rofl: :lol:
I have not. I guess that's another technique to try, and as Sirchopsalot suggests, noodle a groove, then try splitting off that. If that fails...
That's all good info to keep in mind. :yes: I can't let anything sit, it's public property and if it sits unattended it's up for grabs by anyone...
I haven't tried working the edge, I'll have to give that a go. I pass up a lot of big stuff, because it's...big
For those of you that split rounds, oak in particular (or equally hardwood), is there a technique to do more than dent a round? So far I've used...

We had a dog that loved the snow, she would run and scoop it up with her mouth. She didn't have snow pile up on her snout, but we always knew when...
I move as rounds, I can't really haul a splitter, and a couple days ago I took my maul and tried it on a round of white oak. The maul dented it,...
There's a barber near us, that charged $6.00, then upped it to $7.00 about 5 years ago and apologized profusely, saying it had been 15 years since...
I'm a night person, and it's not unusual for me to be out after dark running the log splitter, of course after dark isn't late this time of year....
It's pretty amazing what can be done now days. This could be life changing for humans everywhere if it worked out like the heart pig valves that...
Woodwidow, Prayers that everyone is safe. The volcano is under the ocean and here's a satellite video of it. [MEDIA]
Same here, we're just downwind of you.
