Log Splitter

[stevec]

Today I decided to cut the stump of one of the oaks I took down on our front lawn.

   

Here it is ready to test the log lifter on my splitter.

   

I think I'll try and rotate it to a better position for the first split.

   

This looks a bit better.


   


That is better, still had to help complete the separation with a few whacks of the axe.

Here's the second split, things are getting a bit more workable now.

   

a little more work and we have wheel barrow overload with stackable (sorta) firewood.

   



More work than I counted on, I`ll leave the second stump til tomorrow.
