[QUOTE="dudders, post: 7112014, member: 19026"] Out splitting logs this evening - must do about 20 ton every year, all by hand with the splitting axe, so I suppose I just take it for granted how to do the job. One of my workshop tenants saw me at it and said could he have a go? He's a practical kind of guy, so I handed the axe over and had to stop him within 3 seconds. Both hands on the end of the handle, hoist it up, waving it around, disaster coming, so I showed him how to do it. Again and again and again, but he just couldn't get the movement co-ordinated, then he brought it down, missed the log and snapped the handle. He was fairly apologetic, and I didn't make a fuss, these things happen. His parting words: "I'd like another go when you've repaired it." [/QUOTE]
