Edwin's Diary

Dear diary,

Dad bought this hydraulic log splitter... whoa, can this sucker split wood! You turn him on, push down these two levers, and a long piston comes out and pushes the logs onto a small axe-bit. Sometimes the wood snaps into two pieces that go leaping off with a sharp crack sound. I may be 8.46 but I am not as strong as this little machine. With his help we can split a week's worth of wood in a few minutes, thwack, crunch, done. It feels very satisfying.
