1. An apparatus for securely holding one or several logs to be split onto a raised base, comprising:
a. a rigid beam about 32 inches long, and b. a means of securely attaching said rigid beam vertically to said raised base, and c. an elastic member to stretch around said rigid beam and said logs with a means of connecting the two ends together tightly, such as a cinch or cleat, and hold said logs securely to said rigid beam and said raised base while allowing for expansion as said logs are split, whereby said logs can be split into as many pieces as desired without said pieces falling onto the ground, saving time and energy, and reducing strain on the users back.
