    Although black gum is worse as i recently discovered at my Disney cut. The wood processor wouldn't split it and neither would his dual splitter. Sunk in a tiny bit and bogged down. I had to chunk it off the edge and even then it really grunted.

    So being a metal fabricator are you going to build a bullet maul?
