Hello Russ, you are extremely fortunate to have the helpers that you have. I am very impressed with your grandfather who saws all day. He’s definitely from the old school no PPE and Kevin seems like a very reliable helper, if I could offer one word of advice, your dump truck looks like it could certainly use a good rust proofing before it decomposes under your eyes. We experience lots of salt here in Ontario so we get our vehicles (Krown)rust proofed annually and they are rust free even after 13 years. When’s the new splitter going to arrive and I thought you sold this one. HAPPY NEW YEAR. Cheers Woody from Niagara!!!

[@WilleysFirewood]

Thanks woody. The dump truck is too far gone for the road. Yearsnof salt and plowing have taken their toll in it. Gramp and Kevin are the best help I could ever ask for. I'm hoping to get the call for the new splitter this week. I'm excited to get it back and show you all!

Hey Russ. An once of prevention, wearing a back belt? May not feel it now but wait til you hit 50 😉 or 54 tomorrow. Gramp musta played the Million Dollar Man back in the day. Theres more in a load of rounds than split, been proven on YT many times. I believe Russ did it too. Yes the gaps are bigger but there's way way fewer than in the split.
