We have lusted over a wood splitter a time or two but nothing we've ever looked at compares to that awesome machine.

It's still an ashy mess that has to be cleaned out every day or so, but oh how I love to see a cozy fire in the house! I always wanted a fireplace..and maybe one day we will have one, but I don't envy anyone having to cut and haul wood. We had a GSD once- she was a sweetheart. Have a warmer day!

Still, it was easier than using a hatchet or saw. Those are some BIG piles of wood...even the one "just for a home". I know it keeps you warm and toasty!

Big business requires big splitter. I have seen ones run with a tractor that splits one chunk at a time though. It's been a very mild day here with rain that took away some snow.

You could find them in almost every forest. Since we don't have many homes with fireplaces, they weren't going to private residences, but used commercially.
