Guys, if anyone is interested and has access to a splitter I have a proposition to offer. I have piles of already cut logs. All mixed ... Mostly Hackberry, Poplar, and some Maple and very little oak ... See Pic's ... Since my accident last Fall and have pretty much lost the use of my left arm, and not much help picking up anything, I am pretty much dead in the water ...

All wood was cut this past Summer do to storm damage...

I am offering half of the wood to the splitter or any reasonable percentage that seems fair ... If interested PM me ... Thanks <'TK>< :)

I wish I had a splitter. I have a few mauls, and wedges that I usually split with, but this illness that got me this weekend is gonna have me down for a while.

I think I have enough seasoned wood in the shed to get me through this winter, I may have to start mixing some not so seasoned with it ... As you saw in the pic's it is going to pretty much take a Hydraulic splitter ... I had the logs cut to a size that they could be rolled ... I have the laps (limbs) from these cut and in the shed .. I appreciate the offer ...

Heck, Maybe when it warms I'll invite all of the woodsmen on the site to split wood, burn something on the grills and fill up a couple of Ice chests with cold beverages .... <'TK>< :)

Thats pretty cool, to bad I don't have an old junker laying around. I bet I could take the prop off the outboard and use it :)

Get TK to rig a circle saw blade to fit the prop shaft. Just saw off chunks of the log to size needed.

I get part of the patent.
