Always enjoy your wood splitting videos. I have an outdoor wood burning furnace and it takes big wood. It takes 32 inch long wood if it does not need splitting. 8-10 inch round sticks at 32 inches is a handful to manage at times, but if we need to split it, it has to be 24 inches to fit splitter. When I see your 16 inch stuff split into kindling it looks like some of my scrap wood. Keep up good videos and say howdy to family. Central Maine Dan..

The farmers would sell me the tops for a few hundred dollars and I would work evenings and weekends cutting and splitting with a wood maul. A 150 tree tops would last me a couple of years. Anyone who has cut firewood knows what a workout it is and I attribute my good health today to challenging myself to keep right on cutting and burning firewood. I built my own log splitter from scrap 28 years ago. It's still going strong and I only have $250 invested in it. Love the RK tractors and all the equipment. Your living the dream!

If Piper looks like Andy, Melissa had a "Woodstock" thing workin' with her hair (Snoopy's bird friend) today, after she pulled the hood back. Fantastic! Emphasized, for me, how she can't ever look bad, even when she looks like she's been dropped out of Dorothy's tornado. Beautiful, no matter what. Thing I love so much about the Morgan Clan is how genuine and honest it is, no matter what else the video content is conveying.

Hi Mike I have my Wood Mizer LT40 in one big building where I store my firewood processor, tractors and other stuff. Seemed like a good idea at the time, milling inside with lighting, out of the wind and rain. Problem is everything gets a fine layer of dust. Not the end of the world but if I was to do it again I'd keep the Mizer in a separate building. Looking forward to seeing the future projects. Happy Christmas everyone from a very wet England.

are there hydraulics missing for the radial stacking function or do you just remove pins at the axle knuckles and adjust wheels? that is obviously the reason for the ball hitch base, do wondering if it is standard or an extra option.
@WolfeRidgeSplitters4 жыл бұрын
Hello Gary! Articulating hubs come standard, we use a 3/4 bolt to lock in place so it is super secure for towing down the road. Just take that bolt out and push the tire to rotate hub assembly. We do not have a hydraulic power option on radial stacking, it rolls pretty easy by hand by just pushing on top of the tires Yes, that ball plate is to allow the conveyor to pivot at the center of the splitter sorting table. You can turn the conveyor about 30 degrees in each direction to fan out the pile without having to move the splitter. Thanks! Chris

Melissa I too had a foot operation (plantar wart on the ball of the foot) and how it put a hitch in my giddyup. You just have to get around so you go ahead and limp. I like your setup for splitting but my stove is an old Fisher papa bear and much of your split wood is kindling for that monster stove. I can take lengths up to 30+ inches but keep them at about 24 inches as that is the most length my splitter will split.
