Hi Everyone,
Still very much a beginner here. I actually split wood for the first time this weekend. As I stated in another post recently, I am "the wife". My husband was quite proud of me, actually. Haha. I used one of these splitter because I couldn't quite figure out the maul. Anyway, kind of curious, as a sidenote, why would anyone ever use one of these manual splitters instead of a maul? The maul is so much more efficient.
Anyway, back to my original question. I was talking to someone at work today who gets slabwood and cuts for firewood. Seems like an inexpensive option, but what am I missing? Would we need to mix with other wood? Anything specific I should ask for or look out for?
