So does a manual splitter... However I only use the manual splitter for stuff that I can't split with 5 of 6 whacks of the axe. Yes axe, a maul just wears you out faster, a good splitting axe is the way to go.

I burned about a cord this year but I only had 1 1/2 cord for supply. I've also only got a 900sqft house. Burned something like 350 gallons of oil. Next year I'm aiming for 3 cords (128 cubic feet per cord) and get the oil down to 200 gallons or less. I've got a friend who lets me cut his trees for free so its sweat equity. -Curt Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2007 11:26:59 -0500 From: John Robbins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT: Wood Splitters To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Rich Thomas wrote: > You guys are total wimps.

I believe Jim mentioned 10 "cords" (that term is pretty meaningless to me, other than "a lot") of wood... --------------------------------- 8:00? 8:25? 8:40? Find a flick in no time with theYahoo!

Our 10 yr old dog died about 6 weeks ago, miserably, from massive internal bleeding. Despite the best care we could get her she still did not make it. Our other dog (2yo) was sick about the same time but got better after going on some other food. Vet had asked if they had gotten into any rat poison as that kind of bleeding is a symptom, and both being sick at the same time. Now I see that the canned stuff I mixed in with their food, and bought new from the store (Safeway Priority brand) just before that time, was made by this company. I think that sh*t killed her. Damn. Anyone else have anything happen to their animals? Clean out your pantry... --R
