@@russellbelliveau1694 It truly is. It does need a bit of tweaking. The strip off plate is too thin (bent already) and needs a shutoff for the hydraulic, so the filter can be changed without losing all hydraulic oil.

@@dereksstuff8395 that’s good to know it’s new so they will tweak stuff and if you’re like me we can do a bit of tweaking as well. Do you ever get something you can’t split? I’m concerned at the low tonnage?

@@russellbelliveau1694 I've only had 1 piece of hickory (so far) with a full blade attempt. I just slid the block out an inch or so, and it pushed right through. It's all about the "angle of attack" with the tougher wood

Looks like it does well. When I looked at them a few months ago I was concerned about the tons rating.

[@dereksstuff8395]

It does work well. I'm almost done with the hickory, then will move on to the beech.... that will test it!

Are they gonna make a foot pedal for this model splitter?

[@dereksstuff8395]

@cutNdryfirewood It is in production. I will be fabricating a foot control.... more videos to come. Thanks!

How many tons pressure is this?

[@dereksstuff8395]

@@sentrysal7212 It's only 7 tons, but the wedge is tapered nicely, so it works quite well.
