Hand splitting vs Log splitter

Did you post the same pic twice by accident or is that “Before” and “After” you tried to split it more by hand?

 

OMG the worst. Worse than elm. Lower btu's too. If i HAD to take it id cut it into cookies to burn.

 

I wonder if I have that in my area here in Kentucky?

 

Went to the dark side on us from a wolfridge huh? We’re already outnumbered! Haha, jk. I have seen footage of those and they seem very good quality. If I get one later in I’d probably go with one of those or an eastonmade. I mean fiskars lol. Just kidding

 

I agree. It’s horrible stuff! My maul bounced off the limb wood from sycamore.

 

Yep...mistakes are made sometimes.

 

Oops I hope my reply didn’t sound jerk-y…I was just making a joke about how hard that wood looked to split.

 

Never really had to Dad was USMC taught me right " You do what you are told to do when you are told to do it " The respect was always there I was 6 inches taller than dad but the thought of challenging was never even thought of !!!!! Semper Fi dad rest in peace !!!

 

Sounds like he did a great job. I was afraid of my dad too but I got a lot of whippings haha. Sorry to hear about your dad my friend. May he Rest In Peace.
