    I’m bummed I had a bunch of family obligations but still very happy I was able to sneak down. You guys are a good bunch, sorry I wasn’t able to stay and play. My boys had a blast playing with your kids chipper1 and a pile of skulls to show their friends. Dennis, I sure hope you consider doing it at least once more.

    Wow, what a gang showed up and look at all the work done. Great weather for it as well. Thanks everyone for posting pictures and letting us in on the action.

    See, this why I'm such a successful procrastinator, I wait for the universe to bring the answers to me.

    I'm gonna have to use that line on Jill.;)

    Backwoods Savage I didn’t know your splitter even worked in a horizontal position! :rofl: :lol: And what’s this about a shortage of milk crates?

    Forgot to take one but the log served its purpose well. Notice by the end we had both splitters set up right.

    We were going to call it quits after this one but now we're not so sure we'll be able to.

    It sure would be the highlight of any trip we make eastward. I think we would be pulling an RV and not a woodsplitter though.

    I like that picture turbo, those lags would have done some damage.

    There is also a very nice saw in that picture.
