[AT] OT - Wood chopping clip

[Roebersauctions at aol.com]

I would believe he has a wood cook stove that he still uses or he has a  
small Air Tight heater in his shop. Some of those pieces looks as though they  
may be Walnut. Ernie from MN

Charlie,
Gotta be.  I can see no reason  that I would split a nice fire log 
into any more than quarters, and  usually just in half.  I was not 
referring to those little matchstick  ones he made.  I start my fires 
with a little pine split up into  small, but an armload lasts all 
winter.   I only start the fire  once a day, if that.
I burn elm when I can find  it.  Pretty scarce in these parts, too.  
Twisted up, stringy  stuff that I would not attempt to split without a 
hydraulic  splitter.  Dang near impossible to stack after split, too.
You can have that splitting maul and keep it.  My shoulders  would 
not allow that thing around.
