"Wood heats twice", as they say.
Or at least my father used to say.
Once when you split it, and then again when you burn it.
**Not applicable if you're using a hydraulic splitter.
Every year in the late winter before the sap started to move we'd fell a bunch of trees on our property that took damage over the year or were too crowded among other trees. By the late summer they're ready to cut into rounds and haul out of the forest. And then split as fall moved in.
In his 60's now he finally broke down and bought a hydraulic splitter. Bet he still swings the maul on occasion though for a little exercise.
