Splitting firewood with a gas log splitter is a lot like professional wrestling.

If you follow this script, you'll win your match with as little effort as possible.

Before you enter the squared circle, it's helpful to learn a few new submission holds.

Here are some basic maneuvers that will literally chop your logs down to size:

STEP 1: The Vertical Drop

Drop the bomb on the big logs.Before you can go for the pin, you'll need to wear down your bigger opponents first.

Start with your log splitter in the vertical position. Then piledrive all of your larger logs in half.

Besides, who has the strength to body slam super-sized logs onto a log splitter?



STEP 2: The Cradle Clutch

Catch the logs, so you don't have to pick them up.Some slices are simply too large to cut into quarters.

If you're going to karate chop a log more than once, flip your log splitter into the horizontal position and attach a log cradle.

Don't waste energy picking your opponent off the mat just to hit 'em again.



STEP 3: The Four-Way Wedgie

Split Your Opponent into SmitherinesBefore you can hit the locker room, you need to make quick work of smaller opponents.

Simply attach a 4-way wedge and pulverize extra large limbs into quarters with one quick motion.
