That looked like some really well seasoned wood!

You need to get the splitter on the ground so you don't have to do all that lifting.  Life is hard enough.   And watch those fingers with all that popping iron wood.

Well that was very calming to watch. I enjoyed the wood popping like that.

Great tool Irwin:

I'm like Annette, it's interesting to see when she pops. What a back and time saver.

Scott yes it was it was A white cedar tree that been dead and down for year's. I had the splitter set on low when it is turned up on wood like that a person can get hurt when it pops apart. I learned that the hard way. Annette and the Beemaster I love that sound don't know why but I do. AllenF it dose stand up but I was only doing a few chunk's of wood. When I have a bunch to do I stand it up and sit on a chunk and go to town. Next time I do it I will make another video.

I was just worried about your back with the larger stuff.  Our splitter is laying on the ground.   The I-beam gets buried by wood chips and bark and after a while is level with the ground so there is no problem in rolling 3 foot logs on there to split.  The best investment for one who heats with wood.
