For those of you who split wood by hand

[madddawg]

The other day I was splitting and I got tierd of bending over and picking up the wood after splitting it. Sometimes it would fly off in different directions. After taking a beer break and thinking about it I came up with this


I took the biggest log I had and and first just tried screwing the 2x4 s to it but they wouldn't stay on. and there just wasn't enough room. And after another beer break I came up with that. Screwed the 2x4s to some pieces of 6x6s and then strapped them to the jog. That worked OK. But the pieces would sometimes fly between the 2x4s. Hmmm... Beer break. Then I came up with the plywood Idea.Not only did it stop the pieces from fling everywhere it helped hold the 2x4s in place. One thing I am going to add to it is another upright. I was out of 2x4s. I was able to get a lot of wood split that day. About 4hours worth! slept good that night.
