Great performance from those 2 splitters to pump out that much oak in no time. Talk about production going thru the roof! Good for you folks.👍

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

Easton made really set us good . That boiler wood sure dose go fast with 2 machines splitting . We should be able to make short work outa the 12 cord we need for our next yrs boiler wood with this set up .

[@lg-vh3lh]

Holy crap you guys, you can knock out a ton of wood in such a short time. One of the fastest and most efficient operations on KZbin these days I think. Phil, that hopper works so well. And Karen I think Russ is right, you're one of the hardest working women in the Wood Hound World. Love to watch you both.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

With 2 splitters going and making boiler wood it goes fast . We put a lot of thought into the best way to set up this new equipment along with the old equipment to make it as productive as we could . Yup Karen’s no slouch she’s always ready to jump in and get it done . She’s really liking that new axis and conveyor set up . We still have some changes to make to make it go smother but we will get it done .

[@NeighborlyHomestead]

Awesome video you guys and awesome loads of wood too! What a huge selling point for Eastonmade with Karen running that Axis and 2 splitters feeding that conveyor! Nice work you two!

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

Hopefully with an added tree guy we will be able to keep this new set up fed with plenty of rounds . Karen’s always stayed clear of ole buster but she really took to that axis . I think it’s going to be a good combination once we get everything all dialed in . Thanks Tim

[@bobbruce3925]

Got that wood operation fine tuned for sure. That wood is just flying. I’m so happy for you both so well deserved, continued success

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

Still got more fine tuning to do . Gota get a platform under the axis so Karen can just slide the wood across the table into the conveyor belt. Like any new set up it’s going to take some tweaking to get it perfect .

[@wayneberry8703]

WOW, you two. That is a lot of free wood, right there, 😂…. Well done. Oh boy, you have two splitters going simultaneously! Right on….. Great video, once again Karen and Phil. One acorn 😂😂😂

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

That’s all it takes is one acorn and them tree huggers say cut em down happens every yr at this time . I went back and got 2 more loads yesterday and got it all cut up . Probably wait till I get 10 cord or so cut up into rounds and we will fire the splitters back up so we can get next yrs boiler wood outa the way . The oak has been coming in faster than we can process it so we need to get to it .

[@JerrySpindler]

Great video, that is what I call firewood production! Ms Karen I wouldn’t tell Mr Phil but it looked, to me, that you were putting as many sticks, if not more, on the conveyor as he was, good job!

[@jonking8831]

Great video guys. You work well together. You both have great work ethic. I noticed that the oak seems to bounce a little more when Buster is splitting it compared to the pine. You have a great system in place now that you have the other splitter. I can't wait to see all the wood stacked on your pallets in the near future. Hopefully you'll continue to get enough logs to keep things running smooth with minimal breakdowns that will slow you down. Luckily you seem to have a spare piece of equipment just in case something does happen. Great job guys.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

The hardwood definitely goes flying a lot more than the pine . We’re gona have to stop and build more pallets cause I think we’re down to just 5-6 left that’s why we’re doing our boiler wood now .

[@WilleysFirewood]

That was a nice pile of oak for sure. It splits really nice too. The second splitter helps out quite a bit.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

That fresh oak cuts good to . I hate it when it’s been sitting all summer . No stacking and running the second splitter really speeds the process up a lot .

[@PetersonFarmsofNashvillePFON]

That’s an awesome score of wood ! Looked like old blue got a little lite in the rear end there a couple times 😂 Cya at Bunyan 👍 You almost took one in the grill 😮 Great teamwork!

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

I ended up going back the next day and got 2 more loads from him . That fresh oak is heavy stuff and that one log really maxed out the lift on the tractor. It’s all cut into rounds now plus a bunch more . Almost ready for another splitting session .

[@lillysfarmfirewood]

The Oaks are loaded with Egg Corns! Last year wasn't as many in my area! Great Video.....

They sure are the ground is covered with acorns around here . That’s a sure sign we will get lots of oak firewood coming our way .

[@aldredske6197]

Hi Karen and Phil!!😀😀 That's some pretty nice oak. The new Axis runs a strong second to good old buster. You guys certainly were making time. Take care my friends!!😀😀💚💚 Logger Al

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

The axis has a lil slower cycle time but that just means ya not pushing as hard to try and keep up with it . Less breaks equals more splitting time . I’d be willing to bet at the end of the day I can split the same amount of wood on the axis just because I would need less time for breaks . Karen’s getting cocky and thinks if we get a hopper feeder for the axis she can out split me over the corse of a day . I’m not sure about outsplitting me but all things being equal I think both machines are about the same . One just looks a lot nicer getting it done .

[@bensfirewood]

Double the fun alright! I like how you split that boiler wood into thin but wide chunks.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

It’s all red oak and takes forever to dry but splitting it thin like that lets it dry faster than big chunks . 2 splitters really speeds things up .

[@danshouseofsmokeandoutdoor7119]

Nice I thought log lift would answer all my needs. I still end up noodling the huge ones. Just to big to handle. The versus definitely the answer for larger rounds. Great work. Stay cool 😎

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

I think with some of them real big rounds I will noodle them at least in half . No point in dumping a bucket full of 400 lb rounds into that hopper and risk breaking it . In the back of that log pile of oak are some 4 ft oak logs so we can really test out the log lift on that axis . Log lifts sure are nice but after using that hopper feeder I hope I don’t ever have to use a log lift again .

[@susanscherer143]

You’re making your cuts wider it appears. 😊 Guessing it speeds up production and stacks better? Great video, nice break in my day!! The motors running on the splitters kind of lulled me to drift off for a bit, lol. Replayed a section, LOL….UPDATE 2: At the end of video Phil’s chest sweat stain is in the shape of a heart!😂

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

We’re making them wider for our wood boiler at the house . Long as they fit through the door there good enuf and it speeds up splitting and stacking . Karen noticed the sweat mark also and said the same thing .

Good eye Rick someone else also mentioned the loose nut on the dog and sure enuf it was all floppy when I started cutting this morning so I got it tightened back up . Much appreciated I probably wouldn’t have noticed till it came off . Without free wood we would be outa business cause I’m to cheep to buy it .

Our oak pile is overflowing so it needs to be prosesed .

Loving my axis its so much easier on the body then the supersplit

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

It’s probably not as fast as the super split but it’s a lot more productive on them bigger rounds and the log lift makes it nice . Did you get it with the attached conveyor. .

[@dono9879]

Hello Phil and Karen. Watching the 2 of those splitters running side by side shows that Axis cycle time is as fast as Buster. If that’s normal than that machine must be on steroids. I like that new advertisement the 2 of you did for that Double Dew including the sound effects. Thanks for another good video.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

That axis is definitely the fastest vertical production machine out there . The cycle times are very close between the 2 but buster has a faster return stroke . Karen never drinks mt dew but I’m working her lol.

[@JerrySpindler]

Great video, that’s what you call firewood production! Ms Karen I would not tell Mr Phil but it almost looked, to me, that you were putting as much if not more sticks on the conveyor as he did, good job!

[@adammac4381]

I thought you 2,were all set to buy the splitforce double split action with the conveyor between the splitters. You could look across at one another and do that smile thing!

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

The split force are great machines but I’m a bit of a speed demon and like to go as fast as we can . Now we have the fastest vertical production machine out there and the fastest homeade vertical out there with a monster 24 ft conveyor. Hard to say no to that and eastonmade gave us the splitter and conveyor. We can still see each other while we’re splitting with this set up .

We went and got another 2 loads today and got that cut up . I need 12 cord just for my house . Sure splits up fast making big pieces and having 2 splitters going .

[@DavidPhelps-du1mx]

You might consider getting a dump trailer and then you can get all lengths of firewood. Sure is some pretty wood to haul to the dump.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

We have 2 dump trailers but I would need an acre of land to keep dumping it all . With the logs we can make big stacks and the longer the logs the less cut off pieces we get . When we’re caught up and needing wood I do take the shorter lengths but we usually dump it into the coral and get it cut and processed as fast as we can .

[@leehillsgrove7986]

Good evening guys got a few questions for you. Are we going to see a smaller hopper for your new splitter and also is there a plans to extend the table from your new splitter to the new conveyor so you can just slide the wood into the conveyor without having to pick it up just wondering if that would be a little easier, but I greatly enjoyed the video and as you keep putting them out, I’ll keep watching them. You both have a good weekend and be safe. Lee Hillsgrove Trucking signing off 👍

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

No added hopper for now we want to keep the axis open so we can take it on the rd to other woodyards . The way the axis sits now it’s about 6 in lower than the conveyor but I think with a load of gravel we can bring it up so the wood can just slide across. We just wanted to really test out this new set up before we started changing things to much .

[@jameschandler2776]

That Stihl is really eating up that oak. Wood cuts so much better green. I have been cutting a stack of logs that are 8 years old all summer. About 12-14 cords, 30 ft. logs, mostly cherry. They were abandoned and the owner let me have them. He was going to set them on fire because he didn't have time to mess with them. It is bone dry and is hard to cut but it is ready to burn the day I cut it. There is some walnut, oak, and poplar, the poplar is pretty much junk. I have been using it to burn out stumps. When I traded my truck in, they asked if I had been in a hailstorm. Nope, I live in the woods in a grove of big hickory trees. I have quit trying to dodge them.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

That green wood sure cuts nice but I’d trade it all for that dry cherry you have . Always seems though this time of yr when the acorns start dropping we get tons of oak . I’m with you Jim a few dings on the roof or the hood just adds character. Them fancy folks just don’t see it that way for some reason lol . That’s good for us though more free wood .
