Here's a pic of one we went through in Nebraska in 2002
Roofs were being punctured and I heard of one room in a house that was so damaged the room had to be completely stripped to the studs. Hail stones broke a picture window sending glass shards into the carpet, the furniture, and the drywall. More pics are available on line.

Dave, it was 75 or 80 degrees outside at the time. It didn't last an hour.
RE: Log Splitter - DaveH - 03-18-2015
10 minutes and it was gone here.

Started on the upright for the pusher.
Cut to size, still needs to be 'cleaned up' a little and a few holes drilling in it.
