Hey AP

Logs are around 16-20" long and 12-14" in diameter. I bought a $400 4 ton electric log splitter a few years back but it won't do anything to these logs. Is that common for a 4 ton splitter to have major limits in their capabilities?

Work the EDGE of the log...okay - that's NOT what I've been doing. Jeesh...that makes complete sense from a physics standpoint.

I am a pretty strong guy, I know it's not for lack of effort or strength, but I simply cannot get these logs split. I imagine a 20T splitter costs around $1k, huh?
