After three days of log splitting I decided I wouldn’t ask the tree guys to come for a fourth day and would cut the last few logs myself. After only 2 hours of cutting I’m beginning to regret that decision. Ash is a very hard wood and it soon takes the edge off the sharpness of the chainsaw. It is also resistant to the splitting axe despite my best efforts. As you can see below I have to cut it into manageable sized pieces but it will require further splitting before it’s small enough to put on the fire next winter.
