Edit...didn’t notice I placed my comment under someone’s else comment thread... Vertical benefits... 1) as you said single operator designed and less trash 2) options to split wood any dimension and not have to change wedge. 3) once wood is on table rarely will you ever be picking it off the ground...on other side of machine... 4) Elevator... nuf said Vertical drawbacks... 1) Limited speed. As you said the horz. With right setup can be a production king 2) larger footprint 3) maybe a touch less safe??...Debatable. I gotta trash them a little bit cause my uncle built a clone vertical and we trash talk each other. His does work good...[but not as good as mine]😆😆

GREAT VIDEO ADAM !! Im looking forward to watching the upcoming videos on your new Axis ,Great Comparison !. I have the 12-22 and really like it ,would be great to have a small conveyor for it similar to the Axis , it splits wood so fast you need one to get it out of the way !! , Knowing Andrew it wont be long before there will be one for it as an add on. On a side note you just got the Axis and it looked as though you were right at home with it .That says alot about the design . It seems to be super precise and makes very uniform wood . The Eastonmade Axis seems to take the fatigue out of doing your wood . I like the fact of not bending over I could see owning both ! Take care

Hi Adam, good comparison and I think your findings hit the nail on the head. It’s not just about how quick you can process a few rounds, the more important question is can you work comfortably/easily for a few hours or even all day? Does the vertical machine have a height adjustable bed or can the ram start position be lowered? I’m guessing not, it looks like the cylinder has a fixed travel.

As I watched the whole comparison I was picturing some sort of homemade chute on the 12-22 to save what seemed to be the time consuming part of the comparison. The schute would start just behind the wedge and go to the entrance of the i.b.c so that the operator let's the 2nd log push the 1st log towards the I.B.C, and so on with all the split logs. I see that the oversized split logs need resplitting so side to the chute would be needed to enable the operator to see the oversized split logs, but let the correct sized split logs just push each other along, with the help of the hydrolic ram, across to the i.b.c, saving the operator time. I'd like any feedback you have on this idea Adam. With the Axis I can see 9 or 12 I.B.C's waiting in a 3by3 or 3by4 grid formation for the lone operator to do hours of splitting before fork-lifting the i.b.c's away for storage or sale/delivery.

So if this was a 2 person job, the one with the conveyor I think would be at an advantage, especially if you lower the conveyor belt and push your wood towards a secondary work area with the wrapper. Then you can do your bundles at the same time. All you need now is someone or something that will automatically receive wood from the conveyor and wrap it automatically, and drop it into your bin, then you're all set to tackle an entire forest! :)

Just loaded up the video and this is exactly the comparison I need. I want Eastonmade quality but debating between vertical and horizontal and I use totes....bring on the splittin' OK, watched the video and I'm even more "split" on my decision. A factor I would weigh-in is the level of noise reaching the operator. It would appear that the axis motor is more shielded from the operator and make it quieter to run? Also, the 12-22 would be tempting to rev higher (noisier) as you shouldn't have your hands on the round when it is cycling. A simple way to make the 12-22 more efficient would be to have a grade difference between the splitter and the totes. You would need to construct a retaining wall with about a 3-foot drop so that the splits would push off the pan and fall into the tote without the need for a conveyor. That would work if you have a dedicated woodlot and not for temporary setups obviously. Still weighing the two. They don't make it easy.

Wondering why you split everything so small? I'm on the west coast and I would call that making kindling. We make pie shaped pieces like the horizontal splitter was making on the first run through.

You can do in 7 hours and 12 minutes with the 12-22 what it takes 8 hours to do with the axis. However, you can probably save some time on the axis by not throwing your wood on the conveyor. Just push it to the left and as you spit more wood the older wood will eventually get pushed into the conveyor. Saving just that little bit of motion and time will add up over time.
