Harvest Hastings: Splitting a log for a cedar rail fence

Tim Gray and Dale Cockins demonstrate how to split a cedar log ready for making a cedar rail fence. They were at the Draft Horse Day at O'Hara Mill Homestead, Madoc, Ontario in August 2018.

Those are some tough dudes swinging those sledgehammers. I’d like to hang with guys like that. Not so many guys like that these days.
