Best Log Splitter on the Market - Eastonmade Axis 2.0

[@HalfAcreWoods]

that's a great idea separating it as you go. we always end up going through our racks to pull out bundle wood. thanks!

[@KNLFirewood]

I did that also before I was using IBCs. Game changer. Thanks for watching!

[@cherylshannon-vp7uc]

Happy New Year to you and the family

[@KNLFirewood]

Thank you! Happy New Year to you as well!

[@outdoorsinthe608]

You got mad flying skills Mark… oh Mike😂 The splitter is pretty cool too👍👊👍

[@KNLFirewood]

Lots of video games in my childhood probably contributes to that?? Thanks for watching Jerome.

[@FirewoodMidwest]

You got one heck of a wood yard Mike! Take care! 👍🏻

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks Rod!

[@TwinCityFirewood]

Your woodyard looks pretty in white Mike. Looking forward to April! Enjoyed it! 👊🏻

[@KNLFirewood]

I'd rather it be sunny, dry and 65 but I guess you gotta take the good with the bad. Thanks Jacob!

[@TonysCoolTools]

Love that drone footage! Damn that’s fast, can’t argue the Axis is one of the best commercial splitters on the market! Love splitting frozen wood. Stay safe and warm. Happy New years to you Allison, Kim and Lilly!👍TCT

[@KNLFirewood]

Tony! It's only at 75% throttle. 100% is scary fast. I watched 765 Guys this morning. That little split fire vertical is the real deal too! Happy New Year buddy!

[@EastonmadeWoodSplitters]

looks great mike!

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks EM!

[@outdoorswithlarryrobin]

Hello Mike, you got one slick operation should have no problem keeping your warm😂👍🇺🇸

[@KNLFirewood]

Old timer once told me burning wood makes you warm twice, once making it and once burning it. Making it with the saws and equipment we both have is almost cheating! Thanks Larry!

[@RobertFramejr]

Merry Christmas and happy new year love your videos

[@KNLFirewood]

Thank you Mr. Framer! We hope you had Merry Christmas and are looking forward to the new year!

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

Good sorting as you split process 👍 Nice splitting 😊

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks Lyle. A little more laborious but worth it when it comes making bundles.

[@inthebackyardwithdel438]

Hey Mike , the drone footage was great . That new AXIS is a sweet machine for sure . See you in April 👍🏻🇺🇸🪵

[@KNLFirewood]

Del!! Thanks man! See ya then!

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

Mike how did that work for ya with the spray on stuff under the knife .

[@KNLFirewood]

It's tacky, but it wears off pretty quickly. Nothing seems to stick very well to the powder coat. I've learned to feather the pedal to split the stubborn ones.

[@Lens-KeepingBusy]

Awesome place Mike, 👍🚜

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks Len!

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

Good one Mike. Great splitting. Big wood rounds. Yes time is going fast. Have a great day. 👋👋👍🏻👍🏻

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks Noel! The older I get the faster it moves...

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

That’s for sure Mike.

[@davidedwards3734]

The Axis is a Great machine. Really like your drone footage. Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks David!

[@WilleysFirewood]

Very cool fly in. I'm going to try my best to be there with at least one Allwood machine. Axis makes quick work of those large rounds!

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks Russ! Be awesome to see you there! I hope you can make it!

[@hardworkingmanoutdoors]

Love my Axis but the 2.0 looks even sweeter! Rachel will be on a trip with our son for his spring break. Hopefully I can make the trip still though. Won’t know till we get closer.

[@KNLFirewood]

You'd love it. I'm only running it at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. Full throttle is scary fast. Hope you can make it! Won't be the same if you're not there!

[@KNLFirewood]

I wanta see that new, little EM processor in action!

[@toddsoutsideagain]

I was trying to watch and you kept throwing splits at me😂 Love your setup! Separate as you go! I would like to be where you’re at with equipment someday! Tractor with IBC totes and no more stackin. Take care Mike👊🏻

[@KNLFirewood]

You keep selling wood at the rate you're going you're gonna be Mike Morgan with all kinds of toys before too long!

[@clubdoraoutdoorsandfirewood]

Mr. Mike. Your shoulders are still good. If I threw wood like your doing I would be a hurting wreck. I am glad for you that you can still do that. Your drone tootage was really neat. You have things setup as you noted . I might have to try some of the bed inner product. Some times especially with snow and low temps that platform by the splitter is very dangerous with kickback. The new axis is a very nice splitter. It’s to back they didn’t add just a little more lift to the log lift to push the big rounds closer to the wedge. Great video.

[@KNLFirewood]

Hey Al! The spray on liner doesn't last very long and helps marginally. I've found you can read the wood, or the crooked cut mostly, and the feather the pedal oh so gently and it "usually" doesn't kick it to the next county. Just a learning curve. The drone is fun to fly. I gotta remember to take it with me for tree job pick ups! Hope you and Chris have a great New Year! Hope to see you in April!

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

Wish i could make it, Mike. Between the office and my Mom and father in-laws, health, and even Bunyan, maybe a challenge this year.

[@KNLFirewood]

Hey Dan! I know. It's tough for me to make it to the 765 Guys and he's only an hour away let alone across country! So I get it. We'd love to see you, but you have several irons in the fire. We'll meet up one of these days!

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

@KNLFirewood : Someday I will make it. In the meantime, I will be there in spirit.

[@LumberLineFarmingCountry]

Hello...Just heard about your channel on Miller's Stumps & Firewood. New Sub from Kentucky! Great video!

[@KNLFirewood]

Hey there! Thanks for watching! I love Ted and Sheri!

[@LumberLineFarmingCountry]

@ we love finding like hearted folks and we are scattered everywhere! Best to you!

[@Ridgewood460]

Great video! I would like to try out an axis 2.0. Mine is one of the first ones. And it is my favourite splitter out of all my splitters. How are you liking that 24D. ?

[@KNLFirewood]

Come to the HFH25. I'm sure there will be at least one there! Love the 24D. New Axis is just the shinny new toy. More 24D videos coming!

[@craigwilson9560]

Nice drone footage Mike! You have came a long ways from my visit with you! Awesome job! How do you like the Axis 2.0 vs the 24D. I know they have there place.

[@KNLFirewood]

Hey Craig! Like anything else, baby steps. Thanks for your support! Axis vs 24D...hmm...good question. I don't run the 24D without the box wedge. And with the right wood, it's crazy fast. Downfall with any box wedge is the chaff. Even though I have the grizzly bars on the conveyor, a lot still gets into the finished product. So I split into the dump trailer then hand "stack" it from there. An extra step, but I believe it's worth it as I want my finished product to be as good as I can make it. Where as the axis just has the one knife, it makes lots less chaff and it never makes it to the finished product. The new axis is super fast as well. Approaching twice as fast as the OG. If you're gonna make bundle wood and you want it to stand out from your competition...split it on a vertical machine, barkless. Hands down best bundle wood machine. It's sooo precise. But if you're going for bulk wood, 24D and box wedge is hard to beat.

[@seanpuffer8436]

Do you change from hydraulic fluid to automatic transmission fluid for the winter? I'm trying to figure out what I need to change since I will be producing over the winter for the first time.

[@KNLFirewood]

No changing of fluids. I split year round.

[@AllenFamilyFirewood]

Same here we don’t change the fluid and ours trucks right along at the same speed .

[@bobrumpf2576]

what is the height of the axis,is the stroke 24"? thank you

[@KNLFirewood]

Hi Bob! I just went out and measured because I wasn't 100% sure. Over all height from ground to top of cylinder is 100". From ground to top of table is 34". Stroke is completely adjustable 24" down to around 10" if you get the extended stop. The standard stop lets you adjust between 24" and 14" or so.

[@bobrumpf2576]

@@KNLFirewood thank you,i was on eastonmade site and couldn't figure that-great machine,34"deck is perfect-i have a boxstore splitter that has been upgraded to include a boom ...deck is now at 34" -it is always my one complaint on any horizontal splitter i have seen-beam is to low

[@chrismartin4776]

Looking forward to April!

[@KNLFirewood]

Oh yeah!

[@circlebmn]

Really is hard to beat an Axis as a do all commercial splitter. I pulled my conveyor off recently for a little more mobility around the yard. Not sure I would order the next Axis with one as it just a bit short to justify the cost.

[@KNLFirewood]

Really is hard to beat. I didn't order this one because I have the STK24. Without the attached conveyor it's lots easier to move about and really not needed if you use IBCs. JMO

[@Northwestlogger]

It looks like that axis is proving it’s worth. I bet if the US military ever contracted anyone to build woodsplitters Eastonmade would be their choice, since it’s built like a “tank”. I know your quite confidant running that machine but it seems to me your thumbs are a little too close to that wedge. I’m pretty sure they don’t grow back. Enjoy your videos Mike, you do a great job. Happy New Year to you and your family. 😅😅😅

[@KNLFirewood]

Thanks Northwest! They don't skimp on material, that's for sure. Thumbs are good. Very mindful of them. Especially with the faster machine. Gotta be on your A game!

[@firewoodathome]

👍👍

[@KNLFirewood]

Hi Bill! We gonna see you at the campground in 2025?!
