how much you splitting a year?

[patvetzal]

Paid $75 for my last splitter to save it from the scrap dealer. Just needed a power source....

I consider it a good workout. Cheaper than going to a gym. I don't consider it "abuse" to your body. A good heavy splitting maul, or a wedge and sledge hammer are my friends for the big stuff.

Just wait twenty years or so......while it feels good at the time the forces involved on your shoulders are not natural unless you spend a lot of time swinging from branches...

Love it! Just toss a few bananas for lunch and should have a few cord by night fall

If you only need a wood splitter for a day or two out of the year, it's cheaper to rent one, with the added bonus of not having to store it for next year.

I tend to split when I get the chance, have helpers and decent weather. Not when the rental is open and they have a splitter free. I often only split for an hour at a time, then get it piled during the next week or so and split some more. Been splitting 8-10 bush cords that way for years....

My many years of cutting, chopping with an axe then over to a log splitter days are over. What a waist of time ! I hunt and fish for pleasure and work out to keep in shape overall. Cutting wood no matter how you do it is hard on the body period. Thank god for natural gas heat ! lol

I believe we're born with only so many miles in our bodies. Manually splitting wood at middle or older age uses up those miles real quick.
