Post pictures of your woodpile/splitting area

Is it all that and then some?

The splitter is amazing. Super fast and tons of power! It's also amazing to have both hands free to work. I'd never split horizontal again!! The conveyor is convenient but not amazing and it takes up a lot of space in my shop. I've considered selling this unit and getting a new single and using my old corn elevator that stays outside.

What would something like that go for used? Or what do you think you could get for it?

I'd think 8-10

If you were closer, I would love to run that thing for a while to see how much I like it.

She's no bark AND no bite... unless you're a stray plastic bag blowing down the street, then she'll try to tear the door off the frame to kill you.

Should hear our rat pack go off .. Two min-pins, and two Chihuahuas. Probably all of them on the scale wouldn't add up to one your girls morning duties.. But they would all love to tear the mailman apart..quite the crew, but love em to death.. All pups for that matter.. K

Funny how that works. This summer mine said "Do we really need all that wood?" Now after a week straight of 20* or less days she's suddenly asking "Are we going to have enough?"

Cowgirl used to say that sort of thing as well. "What, you're going scrounging again??" But I never heard her utter the words "Darnit, it's too nice and warm in here, AGAIN!!" when the sleet outside is flying sideways in winter. Eventually part of her died and she doesn't complain about me heading out with the trailer and a vehicle full of saws any more.

I bring home scrap k/D 2x2, 2x4, etc.and hatchet em into nice fire starter just (and when) the flames go out and I just happen to not be around to save the day, only to come home and find the wood box full and kindling box empty, fire nonexistent, and gas furnace going hell bent for election. Does this only happen to me? Just throwing it out there.. JUST SAYING!!

Cowgirl is pretty good with the fire, can get wood and kindling from the shed and keep the place warm without resorting to the reverse cycle but she won't touch the fire if I'm in the house because she's afraid I'll criticize her for 'doing it wrong'.

Well then maybe she should stop doing it wrong!

I don't think many females come complete with a good understanding of air flow around wood pieces the firebox. That's all I'll say. For now.

Found this today while splitting some ash. Any guesses what it is?

I find those fairly frequently when splitting ash. Probably make good fishing bait whatever they are

After research that was what I was thinking. Thanks @95custmz.

I kinda figured that's what they were. Quite a bit bigger than I thought they would be

Confirms my suspicions.. A wood Sawyer, be male or female, should not split just any piece of "ASH". let alone share. But then again, everybody needs a piece of ASH.. Cheers
