Yup. Split down in the hole and walk/toss chunks up the slope.
Good question. I'd like to say I would, but, who knows for sure.
They probably would have fit. Putting the chain around and lifting with the bucket saved me from rolling them in uphill and wallowing further in...
I heard a rumor that Horkn shaved. :whistle:
BTW - it's good to see you having time lately, to post to your site!!!! :banana:
Thanks, but I gots lots of other wood to split, before attacking the elm. I'm happy to let it rest. I'll try splitting a piece if'n I get...

Good morning, everyone. Just above freezing, overcast, and showery. Freezing rain up Midwinter's way. I'll be running a few errands today,...
I'll start by cutting most rounds to stove length. I'll then split into halves or quarters. That area is accessible to drive right up to. So...

You can do it. I was just over 60 when I made it to the 3yr plan. Hand splitting. The secret to getting there and staying there, is to have...

Just avoid the red dress thread when they peek over your shoulder. :whistle:
Standing dead wood takes up less space. You know where it is when the time is right!
