This is how Neighbors should treat each other! So Blessed!

What happens here

With the log splitter positioned and the log deck ready, the team begins the wood splitting process. Logs are manually rolled onto the log deck, which then hydraulically lifts them to the splitting beam. The operator uses the hydraulic controls to push the log against the 6-way splitter wedge, quickly dividing it into multiple pieces. The split pieces are then removed from the machine. Since the neighbor's stove is small, most logs are split twice, ensuring they are of appropriate size. This process is repeated until a trailer full of split wood is achieved.

Goal: Split all logs into usable firewood
