well...
I was running out of things to do with my yardkeeper and didn't have any really big wood left to split...
i just got done doing tons of trap making and whittling and stuff...





i was feeling kind of stressed though still (normally sitting outside calms me down alot, i really like spring time!!), so I decided to try some... tip first batoning?

okay I don't know what it's really called, but I saw someone doing it with an rc3, I thought it might be a way to split wood that was too long for your blade or something?
I'm not really sure why you would do it... but i did just to give my YKCG a good workout...
(my pics are terrible... I tried messsing around with the self timer for the fisrt time so... yeah.)



it actual;ly kinda tore up the handle, but not bad at all.

hey it's a user!






then once I got it in enough, I batoned it like I normally would...





and since I started in the middle I had to do the other side...




alright... i just quit... it was kinda hard so i just batoned it regularly...
