Hi. You mentioned the blocks of wood were kiln dried before running through the Kindlet pro. Have you run green blocks through and if so do you find it splits better with green blocks over dry blocks? Also, Have you run hardwood through it?

[@oakfarmfirewood]

Hi, I find dry softwood blocks are better if bagging off the end, If you tight pack a bag then dry it the wood will shrink and become baggy. Depending on the hardwood green is better I find.

What machine would you look at since fuelwood are no longer building the transaw range Archie?

[@oakfarmfirewood]

[@damonclark2364]

How much is the machine

[@dioncurline3266]

Hi what is the biggest it will cut to for firewood

[@oakfarmfirewood]

I’m yet to try it for logs. I will put it on max setting and do a video.

Hi, What species do you prefer for kindling?

[@oakfarmfirewood]

Larch is good spruce is good if you can get the bottom of the tree with little to no knots

​@@oakfarmfirewood Will it do Oak and Hickory? I think there is a growing demand for small size burning wood. I looked on the website and it does not say whether it will do hard woods.

@jakebredthauer5100 it does do it yes but knotty hardwood no. If you are mainly doing hardwood splitta 400 would be the best bet

@@oakfarmfirewood According to the Fuelwood website there is one dealer in North America, in Canada. There are no side-puncher manufacturers in North America. Thanks for the advice. I have read that some of those kindling machines are for soft wood. That is why I was asking.

​@@oakfarmfirewood For an inspection cover my preference would be to use glass. If the lid is stiff enough that it does not twist and ordinary double strength glass would work. The advantage of ordinary glass is that it can be cut to the size you want. If you get shatterproof glass from an old pickup window I doubt that it can be cut. Perhaps a glass shop could sell you some shatterproof glass that was cut to size. You may not notice it but I notice a big bang from the Kindlet Pro on every cycle. I suspect it is when the edge of the blade makes contact with the face of the wood. I suspect the sound is from a moment of high stress. I suppose the company has tried various remedies but they interfere with performance.
