- Danny is supervising operations. Mueller maul 5kg (11lbs) from Austria working alongside a recently acquired heavier item from Poland which weighs 6kg (13.2lbs). Both do an excellent job on knotty sitka spruce, which can be difficult to work on. Beech handle on the bigger maul.

I like your splitting cage, and smart idea to put a scrap wedge in the split with the stuck maul.
Elegant demonstration of a brain connected with a heavy hammer. Well done sir.
Thanks and thanks for watching.
Great to watch all your videos Michael. You present everything so well. Strong shoulders to you for many years to come!:)
rrdd: Thanks for the comment and for watching. This type of work does keep you healthy.
great tutorial Mike, your rig with the bungee cords is the business
Thanks Jason. I did a short video on the 'rig' a few years ago. If you are interested, this is it: czcams.com/video/hGKOBhfDueM/video.html
Danny and the Dug were the real stars of d'video!
Excellent instructional video Michael. I am going to make a Holder like yours for my maul.
Roy: I put up a video some time ago in relation to the holder. It should be of help. Thanks for watching.
Never seen anybody use such a heavy maul, most i use is 3kg or occasionally a 7kg sledge hammer with wedges. May have to try one out, seems to work well. I like your chopping block, reminds me of a boxing ring
The spruce here can be really dirty stuff to split with the knots and dead branches, especially on the bigger rounds. Strange as it may seem, these heavy implements make the job easier.
Good man Mick. You make it look easy. Tough going in this weather
If you practise enough it becomes easy. Thanks Paul
I know this video is quite old but do you know anywhere you can still get those 5kg mauls? Can't find anwhere that sells them
Ben, I got this address directly from the Muller company, a few years ago, giving the details of a company in Carlisle that carry their products. Check their website. I'm sure that if you ring their number, they should be able to help you. Be specific about what you want. The Muller catalogue number for the 5kg maul with ash handle is 0257 50; and the hickory handled item is 0259 50.

Where do you find the Muller 5kg one? Cant seem to find it online.
What country are you in?
@@michaelkearney5562 In the USA
@@xTheJmanChannel Muller had an online catalogue which had the names and addresses of the businesses that sold their products in various countries, including the USA. Recently, they changed their website, without including these details. I sent an email to a person that might help me with this information. When he gets back to me, I'll let you know.
You talk too much Michael, get to work! 😁
One has to explain what one is doing!
