I had been assured by one of our new Mods that this round was un-splittable (see that muckle knot in it?  Well it wasn't the only one and the wood rang like iron).  At first I was inclined to agree, but with the help of that fantastic splitting maul it did finally come apart.  Not easy and not entirely necessary, but it was fun. :D

Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

I had been assured by one of our new Mods that this round was un-splittable (see that muckle knot in it?  Well it wasn't the only one and the wood rang like iron).  At first I was inclined to agree, but with the help of that fantastic splitting maul it did finally come apart.  Not easy and not entirely necessary, but it was fun. :D

I'm not very good with axes.  I couldn't hit the same spot twice, or hard enough and I was getting blisters. :-[

It really was a challenge mate and I very nearly didn't take it on, but I have been splitting wood for a good few years.  That maul was just a cracking tool for the job as well.  Anyway, you'd taken most of the round apart already, I was just doing the silly bit. :D
