Electric Log Splitter by Boss Industrial demo

#electriclogsplitter #logsplitter #firewoodsplitting
The Boss Industrial 7 ton electric log splitter is a great tool to have. I'm not being endorsed by BOSS' just like the splitter. Most of the firewood we have delivered comes from tree service companies. They usually come in large chunks that don't fit in our tiny wood stove. It's easy to set up and doesn't take up much room in our garage. I had an electric log splitter before that wasn't as strong and had a slick stop plate that sometimes let the log slip out while splitting. This one has a nice plate that holds the log in place. I'm not sponsored by Boss, but just wanted to share my experience with this Made in America splitter. I am an Amsoil independent dealer, hence the paid promotion link.

Thanks so much! I bought a 7 ton Boss a few months ago and needed a refresher before splitting logs...really straight to the point - well done!

Thank You! It's great splitter, look forward to using it this year.

I also made a cover where its protected from the weather and my splitter stays out on the stand. I used 1 fiberglass corrugated panel fold it over with a board on each end with a handle to take it off and on the splitter > i did run a board on the inside for the handle to screw down into. and caulk down the middle of the board, and over the top of the screws. Where the board and handle bonds to the panel. I just leave the ends open. the boards on each ends, fit down on the concert blocks, and the panel over laps the blocks Its been threw 4 hard rains storms! The splitter is staying dry

Beats wheeling it in and out of the garage! If we still lived in a more rural area, I'd definitely be building something like this. Great idea!

@@fischertoolandgarden Yep I like it 👍👍 i can still stand it up on the blocks to check the oil > Plus it save my back

[@426superbee4]

I made a stand out of 8 concert blocks. At 2 blocks high. 4 in the back, wheels, and 4 in the front legs. Its very sturdy > The height is PERFECT You can liquid nail caulk, the blocks togather . I just stack them, If i did caulk them togather? I would only use a small amount. Where you can pull them apart, and reused them

Are you splitting freshly cut eucalyptus? If so, how does it work on larger pieces, say 10-inch or bigger? I would assume that would be pushing the limits of the machine.

[@fischertoolandgarden]

The eucalyptus is not freshly cut and is quite dry. I don't think it would be powerful enough to cut 10 inch pieces of it. Pine, fir, no problem, but not eucalyptus or oak in that size. Here is a link to the Splitter actually stopping in the split I posted earlier. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d36cZIaLirlmoMk Hope this helps.

I watched your video of it stalling. There is a KZbin video where a guy welded an axe head to the wedge to make it split easier. I'm toying with the idea of doing that if whatever splitter I buy can't deal well with the eucalyptus. Thank you for the reply and videos!

[@fischertoolandgarden]

@@bdecker1 Sounds interesting with the axe. I guess that would make the wedge angle not as severe for easier pushing. Good idea!
