1. Use a maul or splitting wedges to split hardwood. A splitting maul is essentially a thicker, more wedge-shaped axe made for splitting hardwood along the grain, with a blunt sledge-hammer edge on the back of the splitting blade.
Carbon fibre is a material that is made from very thin fibres having carbon atoms. These are bonded together in microscopic crystals, aligned parallel to the long axis of the fibre. It is this crystal alignment that makes carbon fibre so strong. Carbon fibre is used to make composite materials with plastics resins.
Carbon fiber is a super strong material that's also extremely lightweight. Engineers and designers love it because it's five times as strong as steel, two times as stiff, yet weighs about two-thirds less. Carbon fiber is basically very thin strands of carbon -- even thinner than human hair.
