Rufus, you have a lot of work to do to keep up with to do two guys and you will be as skinny as they are when you get done.

That makes the splitting of a cord of firewood look like no-big-deal. Sometimes you lose sight of how hard we used to work in this country.

My son and I cleared my entire log pile a month ago and after I could not re-sharpen the chainsaw the 3rd time, we called quits. ~7 trailer loads behind the tractor to the shed that overflowed...

Cutting with a 2-man cross cut saw is an art form that takes a coordinated team. Maybe not too bad cutting various types of pine, but I'd hate to try it on a 12-18" black locust log.

I actually did go out and split a bit of wood on Sun. while it was warm before the rains arrives - enough for an evening. Got another cord+ under a tarp already split and ready.

Snowed just enough to turn things white here last night.....

I still use a pole axe and a moderate weight striking hammer & 3 wedges. Good exercise!

Well, I'm splitting aged maple and oak. Reasonably easy to handle if you know what you're doing,

Beats paying to join a gym!

Much is unchanged when you get a few hundred miles away from cities. Take away satellite dishes and the current cars............

And the people themselves? Noticeably/discernibly different?

Well, clothing styles have changed a good bit.........but the people themselves, not so much.

Would someone more astute than I explain how that mill works/ What's with the bitty wheel, e.g?
