WOLFE RIDGE 17VS WOOD SPLITTER In The WOODYARD!!

[@scrhino40]

Glad to see you all are getting a bin system build to handle wood chips and the trash from splitting wood. Keep the videos coming and good luck hunting. Have a great day be safe

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, thanks!!!

[@thomashorn5062]

Glad to see a Wisconsin splitter in a Wisconsin wood yard.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, she is a real beaut!

[@toddsoutsideagain]

You are gonna fall in love now! Your back is gonna thank you! I loved using the 17VS-C I had. Awesome splitters! I brought it home in my dump trailer and my neighbors tractor wouldn’t lift it off😂 The VS-C is about 2800 lbs. They do pull real nice behind a truck. See ya tomorrow Sir Chris👍🏻👍🏻GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, it is an awesome splitter!

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

The 17VS has got the same axel and springs on my SHO, and I tow mine all over the place. Handles really well. 😉👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Nice!

[@upinsmokefirewood]

Tried a vertical out for the first time this month. I'm hooked!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes!They are very nice machines!

[@crazyman3157]

Great seeing Bob and the Wolf Ridge. As Andrew from EastonMade has said, competition is a good thing. Competition forces growth and development, promotes ideas, and gives people options. They are all great splitters and all built well. Great seeing Bert and Gavin showed up as well. Gotta say, they are to something giving these splitters to Chris to try out… He will work them hard and find all the weak spots. R and D at its finest. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, thanks!

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

Bob definitely has a good sense of humor 😂

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, he is a good guy!

[@HowardBernard-hh4io]

Hey Chris! That’s awesome getting to use this vertical splitter. Bob, Chris gets 10,000 views per day multiplied by 7 days every week. Let this be the Permanent home for this Wolf Ridge! Take care!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks so much Howard....actually I get a minimum of 20,000 views a day to well over 100,000 views a day ...10k -15k a day on almost every NEW video but I have over 1500 videos that gets lots of view every day too ...so it adds up fast.

[@briannelson4493]

Always something new happening in the wood yard, Chris I could see you and (or) Bert adding a new piece of equipment to the wood yard. Have a great time hunting.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks!

[@BacktoBob1]

Awesome, can’t wait to see what else is in store for this machine. Thank you guys!

[@InTheWoodyard]

I already split all the ash and the big pile of white oak and Bert did the big pile of basswood ...and it might go on a road trip to another wood yard too! Vids to come!

My blue 17vs is arriving tomorrow (Thursday). YAHOO! I'll be doing several vids as well featuring some 'next level' ideas for the 17vs.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Awesome!!

[@JesseLJohnson]

There was a Wolf Ridge for sale here locally last year I should have bought. Pretty sure it was the 28 pro think they are around $7k new and the seller wanted $5k for it. Don't think it was quite a year old yet.

[@InTheWoodyard]

That would have been a VERY GOOD BUY!

[@travisarndt2330]

You had this and didn't even tell me!!! Secret keeper lolol nice looking machine I have been looking at that waiting to see more run time

I just got it a few days ago.... if I get all caught up I can bring it over some night maybe and let you fondle it????

Nice job video man. Good to have friends in the business with toys to make videos of. Well thought out splitter design. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Glad you liked it!

[@amandadavis9726]

I like how you can tell how everyone has their preference of split sizes.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, bundle folks like 2-3" and boiler people like as big as they can lift.

[@jimmieburleigh9549]

Awesome.. been waiting to see it. Heard about it through the grapevine. Now you need to get Bob to send you their version of the Eastonmade ultra that has a lift on it to do some demoing of it and side by side comparisons with your ultra. Ohio woodburner demoed a custom white one the other day and it was very nice.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, sounds great!

[@saltrock9642]

Bob! Bring one of those down here for me to try, I’m not very far. Go straight south of Appleton about 1056 miles and I’m on the left. Can’t miss it.

Chris now everyone can get their hands on it another excellent video 😮😊❤

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks!

[@jandblawncare8570]

ive become a fan of these vertical splitters, I ran the Eastonmade a couple years ago at PB show and my back would be thanking me after a while and seems like you can push them right up to a wall or something and not take cup too much room.

[@InTheWoodyard]

They are very nice.

[@rickthelian2215]

Love the wood cats😊

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, they are everywhere!

[@jburch1544]

Saw that splitter in Boonville. Heavy duty for sure, did not know about axel springs, Nice!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, very nice!

[@billobermeyer660]

When the 17VS first came out I wanted one but would have to sell my Wolfe Ridge 28C. I simply couldn't part with it and ended up getting the Super Split to support the 28C. Wise decision and I'm really enjoying both machines. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

nice stuff!

[@LoggyMah]

How do I find your other channel you mentioned at the start? Also, hello from New Brunswick Canada. Bought my first home and it has a wood stove, came to learn and have been enjoying the process thank you!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Awesome, my other channel is Out of the Woodyard

[@LoggyMah]

@@InTheWoodyard btw I work in a Woodyard of a paper mill loading wood chips into a hoper that feeds the pulpers. I have a 13 yard bucket on a Volvo L120 but we’re getting a CAT960 next month. We pulp about 1000 Tonn of chips in a 24 hr period. It’s a super good gig, listen to KZbin while I’m working and do 2hrs on 2 hrs off for 12 hr shifts. 2 days 2 nights and 4 off. Now you know my life story.

[@carl27890]

I really like their 17rs idi get to upgrade. The auto cycle valve looks like it would be amazingly useful to grab wood a round while it splits

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, nice machine!

[@martiball4531]

Yay!!! Woodcats debarking in the show!!!!! Thanks Chris 🐱

[@InTheWoodyard]

You bet!

[@inthebackyardwithdel438]

Very nice machine . 👍🏻🇺🇸

[@InTheWoodyard]

Sure is Del, thanks!!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

Should've let me know yiu had this beast. I've got rounds to split that would dwarf the log lift on this splitter. At best, make it look small. A vertical splitter seems to make more sense for you and the size you split than a horizontal splitter. But if taking it to the bin and conveyor, the Ultra is better. I'm upgrading to the attached conveyor model for mobile splitting jobs when can afford it.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Everyone has big wood they want help splitting! I only have this one for a couple weeks.

[@compostjohn]

Compost bays!! Excellent!!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup a chip bay and a debris bay for all the junk!

[@BertsCustomCuts]

We timed that perfect. My slash bin video came out this morning too.

[@danshouseofsmokeandoutdoor7119]

That’s a nice splitter. It what I probably should got rather than horizontal.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Try out the Eastonmade Axis and the Wolfe Ridge vertical splitters...both great splitters

[@samskeeter1]

Looks a great splitter. There's a lot to be said for vertical machines. Eastonmade bought out their Axis mk2 version real soon after Wolfe Ridge launched this !! Only one thing....is it possible to hand start what with the positioning of the engine?

[@InTheWoodyard]

It is electric start, not sure why or if you could hand start it???

[@BacktoBob1]

Yep, you still have access to the pull rope.

[@danelionheart5881]

I saw a video just the other day of a guy using a Wolfe Ridge splitter and I had to leave a comment on it because of the video. The guy that was running his wolf ridge had a 6 way and the poor wood splitter was having a hard time splitting it. The wood he was able to split was not going in the conveyor right and falling off the side instead. I had no choice but to pick out all I saw wrong in just a little over 6 minutes of watching and told him he was better off with an Easton Made. Now that Log splitter looks good for a single wedge but time will tell as you use it.

[@InTheWoodyard]

More knives are harder for any splitter and yes when splitting big wood stuff happens. A person has to read the wood and use the right wedge for the rounds.

[@danelionheart5881]

Great machine, no more noodling!!

Yes it is BUT I have found after using it a lot now, I will still noodle the real big stuff....you still have to move them to the lift and 1/2s and 1/4s are much easier to handle. I like noodling the massive ones.
