A log splitter is a piece of machinery or equipment used for splitting firewood from softwood or hardwood logs that have been pre-cut into sections (rounds), usually by chainsaw or on a saw bench. Many log splitters consist of a hydraulic pump or electric motor which then powers a hydraulic or electrical rod and piston assembly.
Log splitting is the act of splitting firewood from logs that have been pre-cut into sections (rounds, bolts, billets [3]). This can be done by hand, using an axe or maul, or by using a mechanical log splitter. [4] When splitting a log by hand, it is best to aim for the cracks (called checks), if there are any visible.

Timber is commonly grown in hilly country unsuitable for farming and so the ability of a log truck to climb a gradient is significant. The steepness depends on the quality of the surface - mud and snow are harder to climb than gravel and soil. For a manageable gradient, the speed will then depend upon the power of the truck. [7]
Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox broke up in November 2024 and Fox is “healing” and not interested in “revisiting the past.”
