    The splitter has helped me with getting rounds I wouldn’t have attempted in the past. It really makes life easier and I’m a big fan of splitting vertically.

    Today, I hit some Oak, Maple, Cherry and some mystery wood. I’m all caught up, so it’s time to source more!

    I knew you’d put that machine to good use :salute:
    If this is the mystery wood you’re referring to, it’s bigtooth aspen. One of my top 3 favorite shoulder season woods.
