Worthless review, this is 100% the 25T 4 way wedge on a 40T unit Of course it doesn't work right. Smh

@@Athletesperformance1 in fact you are partially correct. It was boxed incorrectly in a 40T box but it fit my neighbor’s 30T perfectly. So my guess is that it may fit the 25 ton machine as well but I cannot confirm that. What I do know is that I bought a wedge from TSC that said it was for the 40T splitter and it was worthless. It was only slightly better on a 30T that it fit better. Thanks for watching!

Well, a far cry from the Mountain Mahogany I was thinking of, which is why I tuned in. Cercocarpus ledifolius was what I was expecting. It is heavy enough to sink in water, and hardness like Desert Ironwood. Got a bunch some years back. It was growing at 8500 feet just north of Las Vegas. I was wondering if it was even possible to split that stuff because of the hardness and the totally twisted grain. Not what you have, not even close.

Are those chainsaw safety pants? Why not keep that helmet on when in work/falling area? Bailey's nail best! Control tape rewind with fingers. If you cut 1000s and mark logs in woods you get very proficient with tape. Saves time. They are expensive and somewhat fragile.
