SplitForce SF9tr vs tree service rounds, plus some equipment talk

I had (4) different phone calls in a single day asking about how a ‪@splitforce_woodsplitter‬ would do against tree service wood and how to make the "Pretty / Pizza" wood. So ... I fired up the SF9t with the side conveyor and got it done. As shown in the video I use ALL the equipment personally and have that first hand experience to answer questions and help guide you into your next equipment purchase. From Splitters to Processors and skid steer attachments to firewood storage, I have you covered!!!!
As always and staying true to the channel, I show it all! The good with the bad for REAL world situations. Yes, the splitter bogged out 2xs on the first piece, but it did get it done. I just had to back the piece off a little to focus the splitting force on a smaller area vs taking a big bite. I also kept the clock running as requested by Doug, our customer, for real time production on what this splitter could do while processing SMALL bundle wood!
Now for some production math:
1) I did an average of 65+ cylinder cycles / log round
18 minute production time TOTAL / 3 rounds = 6 minutes / round
6 minutes / 65 cycles = 5.5 second cycle time!!!
2)18 minutes to produce 1/6 of a cord (bundle wood)
18 min x 6 bags to make a cord = 108 minutes total = a little over a half cord (.556) of bundle wood produced per hour
3) Bulk wood for heating we get $225/cord
Custom Cherry, Hickory or Oak (still produced on the processor) we get $300/cord
Bundle wood (1.25cf) sells for $8/each (cord is 128cf) = 102 bundles / cord = $816 cord
Average bundle wood production rate from this video is .556 cords/hr = $453.70/hour (gross before expenses)
Firewood is a very labor intensive job, I try to work as efficiently as possible to maximize my time to output for production as much as I can! I lean on "hydraulic helpers" and some good old common sense to work smarter than harder.
