   Here, the log is simply forced into a wedge that splits the round into anywhere between two and sixteen pieces, depending on the size of the logs and the intended market. Multitek North America patented a 16 way, box head splitter which can handle up to 18 inch diameter logs. [2]

3. Log splitter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log_splitter

   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.

4. Wood splitting - Wikipedia

   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. [5]

5. Splitting maul - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splitting_maul

   A common danger for inexperienced splitters is to miss the upright log entirely or give it only a glancing blow. If the maul lands beyond the log, the maul handle may either bounce or break. If the maul lands in front of the log, it may hit the feet of the splitter if they are in a closed stance.

   This practice, known as log driving or timber rafting, was the cheapest and most common. Some logs, due to high resin content, would sink and were known as deadheads. Logs were also moved with high-wheel loaders, a set of wheels over ten feet tall, initially pulled by oxen. [13]

7. Logging truck - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logging_truck

   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]
