I am looking at some manual log splitting tools. I am older women and need something simple. My neighbor chops firewood for me, but sometimes they are too big for my stove. Every so often I need to split them smaller. I have seen ads for the ones in this link. Any recommendations on any of these. I am especially looking at the black ones that are tall and have circle at top to hold the wood.

Do you have a video or an explanation of how you built this? Did you use cob?
I have read the books put out by Cerce, but have trouble understanding some of the jargon. I need a contractor, but none in my area have built passive solar.
I have a Hearthstone wood stove. It has soapstone body. It is How can I retain more of the heat? Can I put thermal mass around it? If so what kinds?Here are some pictures of the area . I am hoping for some brainstorming.
I would probably build a bear 20 ft away and the gardens would be farther. I doubt that I would use the berm for food. Just a barrier between the railroad and garden.
I have started a community garden and food forest near a low income area of town. the north edge of the property abutts a railroad track. it is a spur that Cargill uses for its soybean meal plant. They spray the side of the railroad tracks with herbicide. Would a berm be a good way to prevent drift and such from them?
