I did have a piece of yellow-poplar sapwood underneath the log. But I have to confess that I had already done most of the really heavy whacking outside before I moved inside. So the neighbors got the loudest of the noise. I remember splitting firewood back on the farm where I grew up. Unfortunately I didn't know what else I could with the wood at the time. The house may have been even colder than it was if so. Hi John, the floor actually survived intact. I did have a piece of yellow-poplar sapwood underneath the log.

When I'm splitting firewood I have to resist grabbing every other piece and squirreling it away in the shop for later use.
