I think I’ve mentioned this in the
past, but I finally located a wood splitter that our good friend JP said we
could borrow. Employing the generous services of my Mentor, we hauled it over
to our house and set it up where we usually keep the log length wood that needs
to be cut. Once we got it home, my Mentor said to fire it up, being the take
charge kind of guy that he is. I was, as usual, pensive, but we toyed with it
before figuring out the optimal settings to getting it going
Once it was fired up, we split
some logs, and I have to confess, the thing is pretty amazing. It split blocks
that not only weighed about 70 lbs, but were like concrete to my maul. As much
as I love to split by hand, I can see the value of a splitter, they really do
what no man can do, or at least this man... in training.
Until the next time, thanks for
reading, and thanks to
patty christopher for the pic.
