Well today was a beautiful day and i somehow convinced my wife to help me with the wood. Even with the splitter poping a hose and losing 2 hours of splitting time i got tons done!
Stacked all the long pieces needing to be cut in half or more.
Cut and stacked 1/2 my maple Pile to the far right in the pic.
Maple is 2 piles deep
Also Cut and split all of my Hickory. Just to the left of the Maple. Hickory is 4 piles deep.
Split the first of two piles of pine.
Longer logs stacked and new Pile of splits started
You can see in this pic where my splitter popped the hose. That dark spot is hydro fluid
Overall i split anything big into at least 4ths. Most was split into 8th's or more as the rounds were that big! Getting the stuff split now and will revist it all in a month and bring it down to stove size. Each split now will split into 2-6 stove size pieces. Just want to get some air into the wood. I dont have room for fully split wood yet until i build my shed.
