I remember being really intimidated by the giant wood splitting maul my dad used for the initial splitting of logs. I think it was a 15lb head, like a giant metal slice of cheese lol
Felt like a damn superhero tho, splitting a 40” slice of an oak tree lol

I don't think ours was that heavy, but man did it give me an upper body workout. And talk about burning off some pent up ADHD energy...
They use a power splitter now. Goes a lot faster, still get to sit around and watch and talk shit, maybe have the occasional beer, but I miss the inevitable competitiveness the splitting parties used to have... that and my grandpa. I miss him too - he was always there, every time.
