I remember a video a while back of a crane type machine picking up the fallen trees on the side of the mountain and stripping the branches and bark off in one step while it was in the air....

Jeez, that looks real safe. I wonder if that old ZZ Top guy still has his hands.

You won't get any biceps using that thing. And you can definitely forget about a six pack!  
You have to build up a sweat in order to get fit!

Hey, I'll have you know that even at a soon to be 55 years old I still have a six pack... I just happen to keep them well protected by lifting those 12oz weights and eating a lot.

Firewood splitting is a zen thing for me. No machines, thank you.

[68blue]

Use a Timberwolf TR-1, makes more firewood than I'll ever burn. I'm already 2 years ahead after 1 years work.

I totally agree with you. 

[XS29L]

AMEN to that.

I'm hard at it at the moment. A neighbour a few houses along has just had 2 huge atlantic red cedars cut down. He can't use the wood so he's offered it to me.
Just getting it all home at the moment. Then..........plenty of chopping. Axe is sharp and ready!
(in case you're wondering............I've stopped for a coffee break. The good wife insisted)
