... got about 2 chords split and stacked with the handy ol' Michigan bit axe. whew.gif

That's a heck of a workout. A few years ago I bought a Fiskar Splitting Axe and never looked back. It's lighter and has a really good built in wedge design.
"Chords"... does this mean you're whistling while you work? music037.gif

Might have to check out a Fiskar axe in the future but the ol' Michigan bit is the tool on hand for now.....and yes, it can be a work out for sure! For the most part though we can split with that no problem. For the super knotty problem hunks we also have the trusty sledge and wedge combo near by!

Thanks Chris! Good job on having the firewood for the winter also. thumbsupsmileyanim.gif You guys crack me up! laugh.gif

If I could choose something for helping split the firewood, it would be something like this dandy machine.

"AUTOMATIC VERTICAL WOOD SPLITTER"

For now I will just use the axe.

I have a YouTube channel with some videos on wild edible plants found in the Denver area and the Rocky Mountains. I didn't make any new videos last year but I plan to shoot more this year. If I can find the time I want to add other survival info like primitive fire making, primitive pottery, shelter building, water purification, bow/arrow and tool crafting.

Sweet videos Mike!!! thumbsupsmileyanim.gif Wild onions are great, we use to have Leeks in Michigan. The best onions I think. Looking forward to your new videos, thanks for sharing with us.
