THIS Log Splitter is a HOME RUN for the Homeowner - The TimberOX Summit

[@bwillan]

I wish LogOx success with this splitter. Things to consider, the Eastonmade Ultra is $1500 less. The Wolfe Ridge 17RS is $700 less. The 22RS is the same price. The Split Fire 1165V, is aimed at high volume home owners or light commercial producers and costs considerably less. Time will tell how the market receives this new splitter offering.

[@champony6245]

Well they have to make a 110% profit lets be real millionaires aren’t made on 20% profit.

[@dwaynedee529]

You're spot on. The price in my opinion is not justifiable. All the splitters you've mentioned are all the ones I've been looking at. Table space is nice, but being a builder, it takes no time for cheap money to build my own. Nice machine though.

[@MrSprintcat]

Exactly, I'm getting ready to start a fire wood business, probably not going to buy this

[@CantBuyTime-vg6pm]

B YOU ARE 100% SPOT ON. Something aimed at being for the homeowner definitely missed their mark at pricing.Totally agree, way off the mark on that one. It's like they forgot who they were trying to sell it to. Pricing it that high makes it unattainable for most regular people. They'll have to rethink that strategy if they want to see any actual sales. Someone needs a reality check over there.

[@russellbelliveau1694]

@@MrSprintcatthe split-fire 1165V is your machine hands down

[@googleboy7]

Hello Danh, that's a nice little machine, there's only one problem. After 50 years of cutting and splitting firewood I have discovered the weak link in the process. It's your back! Trust me, it wears out. Anyone that splits firewood with any splitter needs to have some way to lift the rounds onto the nest, other than lifting them manually. My Eastonmade 12_22, for instance, does a great job of doing that. After looking at everything I could find on the market. I chose the Eastonmade 12-22. Nothing short of fantastic! Shalom/gw. PS. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family.

[@jasonpinnix1905]

Great video Dan . Just not sure the splitter will ever see a large success. But time will tell . I think my next one may be 1165v splitfire.

[@LogOXUSA]

@Back40Firewood great overview video of the TimberOX Summit! It's incredible to think that this project started with you, us, Timberwolf, Ohio Wood Burner, Stoney Ridge Farmer, and GP Outdoors sitting around a digital whiteboard over a year ago, discussing what frustrated us about typical log splitters and the features we wished existed. We went from ideation to developing a design, actually building it, and bringing it to market. We really appreciate everything you’ve contributed to this project Dan! 🇺🇸🪵🐂 #TeamLogOX

[@outdoorswithlarryrobin]

Good morning, Dan. Looks like a well-designed splitter.👍🇺🇸

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

Great introduction and demonstration video 👍 Looks like a solid machine, looking forward to seeing more of it. Congratulations on being part of the development of this piece of equipment 👏 That large work surface is awesome.

[@Ranger-Al]

Impressive, something to consider for sure, cycle time is awesome.

[@BillyD_NS-NL]

Nice rig. Like the cycle time.

[@SevenOaksOutdoors]

Thanks for showing this to us!

[@davidedwards3734]

Congratulations on being invited to be on the Advisory Board. Nice looking machine. Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@alexbuilds706]

That's a great little machine. Love the compact size but strong enough to operate at those heights.

[@rogerbelanger295]

Very innovative. It’s got all the features that experienced splitters like: compact and clean. Nice deck height. Large working surface.

[@MuhaloTube]

Nice amount of workspace. Stores in a small footprint. Adjustable 4-way wedge seems good. Needs a stroke limiter and maybe a log lift.

[@TonysCoolTools]

Dan the working height, large work table and price definitely make this a great choice for a homeowner. The advisory board had some great ideas👍TCT

[@Back40Firewood]

Thanks! Yeah the working table is really great for re-splitting and moving splits around.

[@jbbrown7907]

That add on four way looks sweet.

[@6by6by6]

My favorite wood splitter to date.. All the ones I’ve never bought..

[@OntarioFirewoodResource]

Impressive! Compact, powerful, fast, user-friendly, versatile

[@pnuttheclownh2254]

only things missing are a compressed air blowoff source, a drink holder, a stool, a grizzly bar extension, a sun/rain/snow umbrella, etc. AND your imagination. WHAT A GREAT DESIGN.

[@wg5768]

Very well designed and made in the U.S.. It is also very expensive, but I think that if you burn a lot of wood each year,in the long run it's probably worth it.

[@Tonnsfabrication]

Man thats an awesome machine right there, it would even be a great tool for larger operations doing resplits, that thing is fast.

[@toddpacheco4748]

Dan,that’s a great 👍 splitter for the amazing Amanda and little boss man just saying 😮😊❤

In the looks department I think the splitter might have a leg up on me...hahaha

[@timanderson4743]

That is fantastic

[@larryterrell8458]

Hi Dan, I appreciate splitters for home owners. It’s a nice unit with the large work area. The compactness is great and hopefully they offer a log lift attachment. You represent Log Ox well. 🇺🇸👏🏻

[@ronbrooks6681]

Yes Dan nice Looking Log Ox Splitter. Perfect Size, and it Comes with a Four Way Splitter Wedge. I will be Released from the Hospital tomorrow. Starting to cut more Wood next Weekend. Going to be Wet out till Then. I do Wish someone Would Approach myself on a Log Splitter. I guess at 72yrs. Old they Figure out your already out to Pasture and to Old to Do anything lol, my Friend. Ron from the Wood in Upstate NY.

[@outdoorsinthe608]

I definitely like the work area!👍👍

[@lyndonhamby7432]

Happy holidays hero 👍🏻🇺🇸

[@thomasgreene5750]

Nice-looking machine. A useful additional feature would be adjustable stops to short-stroke the split cycle for 16-inch and 12-inch rounds.

[@jamesnelson6848]

Nice machine! Would be great if you could set a limit on the return for even quicker cycling.

[@LogOXUSA]

We're actually working on perfecting a design for that now. Its unique central cylinder placement makes that possible.

[@shaun8256]

Nice but that log lifter should be part of the purchase seeing how it doesn't have vertical position. Not so sure about every log you split twisting to the side when it was splitting, maybe that's just bad cut wood but if not that will damage the cylinder over time, or break the wedge off. I'd say cool prototype that could use some refinement.

[@justinauman5438]

Nice machine looks good hoping for more of the four way wedge footage in the future

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

Looks great, Dan. I would think the table part is best just because of its large size.

[@tonywoods3197]

Hi Dan That Timber Ox is Quick 👍

[@paulhoelscher6207]

I really do like the work area, how much is this machine going to retail for? I have been cutting and splitting wood for a long time, I am now in the bundle business. My splitter does a great job, but I’m looking at stepping up in to the next level.

[@Zeke-yv3nw]

Pretty cool Dan!

[@tpctrash]

Very unique. Great small footprint for storage. It would be nice to have a stroke limiter. But not that important. The one thing I see that I kinda don’t care for is you can’t operate it from both sides.

[@thomasworatschka6860]

Is there a log lift for the big rounds

[@LogOXUSA]

Not everyone wants or needs a hydraulic lift, but we plan to include one in the next version of the Summit, which we'll roll out in early 2025, to give folks that choice.

[@tonywoods3197]

Hi Dan Great Video of The Timber Ox QQQ Would They be able to Put a Log Lift on the Side of That Machine for People That Can't Lift with One Arm 👍

[@johnhenderson299]

That's a great concept

[@SpicerDesignsLLC]

Nice machine!

[@PicMartSkunkWerX]

Nice compact footprint. That cycle time blows away the standard box store I-beam models. I do have a question/concern....Debris building up in the center channel where the push plate runs. Brush it out? Is there any way debris could get lodged between the working surface and the moving slide? I'm not trying to say it's a problem, just something I saw that I'm wondering about.

[@Back40Firewood]

You can either brush the debris out or it will fall out the back, there's an opening for stuff to fall through.

[@jakebredthauer5100]

My concern is the position of the cylinder, not being in alignment with the wood.

[@PicMartSkunkWerX]

@@Back40Firewood Ahhh, I didn't see the opening.

[@russellbelliveau1694]

the Split-fire 1165v is leading the pack far ahead presently, but this is a nice splitter very fast and nice big table

[@44dhelk]

Great machine but IMO they’re going to have to concede on price a little more. After a $295 4-way wedge and (overpriced) $150 tongue jack you’re at $6,895. Too many great commercial splitters within a thousand bucks of that to pull the trigger on this. No log lift. Small wheels/tires. Which is totally fine for a machine around 3500-4200 IMO. 7 grand? Hmmm not sure. That price range I’m thinking Eastonmade ultra, Wolfe ridge 17RS etc personally

[@jakebredthauer5100]

What about the extraordinary internal stresses to get the force of the cylinder redirected? SplitFire and WoodMizer are the only other brands I know of that put the cylinder underneath.

[@LogCabinFirewood]

Okay we need Miss Amazing Amanda out there running it next while you feed her rounds ... like the good ole days 💪 Nice job "gentlemen"

[@CPAULKLEIN]

Can you go into maintenance and upkeep? I didn't see much on the website about it. What are the wear items and how easy is it to access

[@megamike4357]

How tall are you? Just wondering how tired a person would get leaning over for a few hours of splitting? I like all the work space, but so much space to reach for could cause extra fatigue. Seems like a nice machine and wish I could demo it.

[@outsidewithstevep]

Looks very interesting. The price point appears to be in line with other high end home owner splitters.

[@jimmieburleigh9549]

What is that model going for price wise. ? Would be nice if it had a lift model of corse lol What I'd like to see is a folding table on the backside or at least a braced slip on table at the rear. That way you can really load it down with rounds.

[@oldguyfirewood]

Great cycle time. It definitely has a homeowner application. What an honor to be on their development team. Your "hobbyist" identity is being challenged!

What is the starting cost and cycle time

[@LogOXUSA]

$6450 with free shipping in the lower 48 states directly to your door, plus a free LogOX Hauler ($195 value) if you use Dan's code. The average cycle time once it's warmed up is 4.7 seconds.

Thank You For Everything, but when you are low man on the Totem Pole on a fixed income and not much in the Line of Equipment its time to move on. Thank You All Again everyone. Ron

[@jbbrown7907]

Is this splitter also designed for hobbiests?

[@daveklein2826]

What didn't you understand with the video title

[@bendugas8632]

Can you limit the stroke? I presume you had 16 inch rounds and the travel I'm going to presume 24 inch, so if you set your pushing block to 18 inch then you increase the machine speed.

[@EdKeen-sr5xs]

How is it for access for repair maintenance

[@6by6by6]

In my area of the country you’d have to burn 35 cord of hardwood just to pay back the investment in the splitter, then add all the wood cutting and hauling or equipment if you have a woodland property. Mt time is worth at least $100 per hour so factor that at your own rate.. As a homeowner I’ll just call the wood guy and be done .

[@m9ovich785]

@@jakebredthauer5100 Just a thing to note is the Cylinder is used in reverse from a common splitter. it Splits on the retract stroke thus the higher cycle time. the cylinder is extended on the Return. Any hydraulic Cylinder is stronger on the Extend due to more space in the Bore...

[@peteanderson1714]

price is out of range for most homeowners. believe the Ultra is less as well as the new vertical that is out there?

[@chrisavila2073]

For the same price with a single and a fourway wedge Eastern made ultra

[@dennishayes65]

What is the stoke size ?

[@garny3766]

Jury’s out on this. Few pros, cons, and fabrication I’d done different… Pros- compact yet when setup large work table. Cons- no lift, $$ Mods- 1) flip/flop wedge and push block. I see no reason to keep “chasing” the wood especially with the large table sides. Install stripper plates if need be to knock off hung up wood. 2) single side operation. I’ve said this before, the valve lever is gonna get bent/broke having it in the same plane as the split chamber.

I am not sure how a $6,500 splitter equals a homeowner model. Still way too expensive. Most homeowners like me aren’t worried about production rate, just ergonomics and price. We don’t want to break our backs or wallets! Sorry to say, but I am not sure this splitter accomplishes either.

[@44dhelk]

@@bencote2219 completely agree. As a homeowner, for almost 7k you you’d be better off putting 7 grand in a high interest savings account and buying your wood every year and never touching a splitter again.

Absolutely, with one person operating the machine and the other one continually staging log rounds on the large work surface, you can really crank out some serious BTUs!
