How do I bang them together. Should I use the ones that are frozen or should I use a clean dry one and one that is partially covered? Do I need to get fresh sticks? What size sticks are you referring to? Would twigs work, they are sticks aren't they?
Snowy frozen wood

Carefully so you don't blacken a nail. When I had ice covered wood, I'd lay the split on the chopping block and beat on it with the poll of the axe as I turned the wood to get the worst of the ice off. The worst was trying to separate the wood from the blue tarp to which it was firmly frozen.gzecc said:

I'm guessing you guys don't get much snow and ice, huh?
It really doesn't matter if one is snow covered and one isn't . . . or they're both snow covered or what size they are as long as you can grasp one or both of them. Just take 'em and bang them together . . . whack, whack, whack . . . just be sure that your pet dog doesn't decide to jump up on you in middle of the whacking . . . and that you don't inadvertently whack your fingers.
Good luck.
