    Wrap with garden hose tightly
    Wait 20 years
    Créate unsplitable log
    Give to friend for bet

    this thing choked 4 way wedge
    Hammered it off after 5 minutes with two sledges

    reversed and tried single wedge, this time 10 minutes with two sledges wouldn’t come off

    then cut with chain saw between wedge and hose, then hammer end piece off wedge

    unbelievable

    looked like any other plain maple log

    That's what would happen if ya crossed Elm and a Rubber Tree. Sounds like it wasted a bit of time.

    I bet there’s going to be a lot of city maples like that.

    Thats messed up. Did it have you saying WTH is going on? Ive split through nails & barbed wire. Once a piece of synthetic rope, bit never a hose.
    That belongs on the wall of shame...display it.
