As TL said... splitting a cord or two is fun... splitting 30 cord a year... year after year... that's not so fun.
When I was a teen I made a few bucks selling firewood... but it was just too much darn work, I ended up getting a job and McDonalds and made a lot more for a whole lot less effort.
These days my brothers and I still split all the firewood for our folks (I've got gas fireplaces in my house for entertaining... no wood required [img]smile.gif[/img] ), but we use a hydraulic splitter and can saw and split an entire winters worth of wood in a day (used to take us most of the summer).
