Thats good to know about the horizontal vs. vertical splitter. Where in Idaho are you?
Hi - I'm from the Twin Falls area. You must be near Boise. I drove to Pocatello last year and picked up a cord or two of red elm rounds. Someone was giving them away, a tree service dropped it off. The trunks were monsters - at least 5 feet wide. I think the biggest width I went for was about 3 feet wide - and that was big enough.
