Splitting Logs and Explaining Simple Hydraulics

A brief explanation of this Ideas & Applications story

If you ever made campfires, you know the value of split logs.  The same holds true for your in-home fireplaces.  It seems to me that split logs burn much nicer than whole logs.  While I have been familar with hydraulic log splitters for some time now, it was very interesting to learn more in our July issue from the article Log splitter works double time.
