Tech/Engineering - Forestry / Wood / Timber / Holzspalter | | German term or phrase: Anzündholz bzw. Anzündholzmaschine | Aus einem Prospekt über Holzspalter, Sägen, usw.
NEU! Anzündholzmaschine
Mit dem neuen XX lässt sich ofenfertiges Anzündholz spielend leicht herstellen.
Rund- oder Kantholz (Weichholz) wird über die Holzzufuhreinrichtung und das gefederte Einzugsband zum V-förmigen Spaltmesser gebracht. Dort wird das Holz im 3-Sekunden-Rhythmus mehrfach gespalten.
Ergänzt wird die Maschine durch zwei Verpackungsoptionen (geschichtet oder lose im Netzsack). |

kindling
Easily ignited material, such as dry sticks of wood, used to start a fire. Also called regionally fat pine, fatwood; Also called lightwood.
REGIONAL NOTE In the southern United States, there are several regional terms for kindling. Lightwood, derived from the verb light (as in to light a fire), probably originated in Virginia and is now used throughout the South and especially in the South Atlantic states. Fatwood is used chiefly in Florida and Georgia. Fat pine also refers to the longleaf pine, native to the Gulf states, whose resin makes even a small sliver of the wood easily kindled.
