1.5 ton isn't very much - may as well use an axe. I've had some oak that stopped my 20 ton splitter.

Harbor Freight has the 10 ton manually operated splitter on sale now for $80 and I'm thinking about picking it up this week at the closest HF. I was looking at this particular unit these past several weeks as it was listed for $120 until today when I caught the sale.
For $80 I'll give it a try as I have several green logs which need splitting.

I've got the same 10-ton HB log splitter...it'll split some pretty tough woods. I have had some logs it just couldn't crack, the ram just stopped with plenty of room left. All in all though, it's a good tool for the money.

Split wood makes all the difference in being able to control the fire quickly...it catches almost instantly on a hot fire.

Log Splitters are always better than using the axe. It will save your precious time and the energy which you can use them in more important works.

Hydraulic Splitters are easy to use as they have a switch to on and off them. They are better than the electric log splitters also.
