WOLFE RIDGE WOOD SPLITTER MOD YOU MIGHT NEED

It is time to do some grinding and lower the 4 way wedge on the Wolfe Ridge 17 RS. The results are perfection

Great job my friend that’s a great size piece of firewood for camp bundles. Keep the videos coming cheers Brad 👌🏻🔥🇨🇦

Interesting. I’m surprised it came without this setting ! Looks 👍

Nice job ! I have the 22 RS and use it as a primary splitter . I make larger woodstove size pieces 6x6" . But if I were to go into the bundle business I would definatly add a lower notch as you have accomplished here . This mod looks like a winner for the product you make . Nice splitter !!

Thanks, I'll know when I get more time on it, but I am very happy with it so far.

For someone new to the video thing keep it up because I’m a big firewood guy and enjoy watching can’t wait to see what’s next

[@The_Woodpile]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Great mod. I was wondering why the wedge was set that high up from the factory. Please keep up the good work with the videos you're a good presenter.

[@WolfeRidgeSplitters]

Good job, that is AR plate, so drilling a 5/8 hole is a long process with a few drill sharpenings... I guess I thought you could just take the bolt out and let it rest on the beam to get smaller pieces. Anyway, it will work now!

I have a wedge that floats on the bottom it does not stay down consistency raising up and not getting consistent pieces I will be adding this feature to mine as well great idea

[@The_Woodpile]

I have seen other non-commercial type splitters with a floating 4 way wedge and have never really been impressed with it. I wanted this one to be locked down, just like it is in all the other positions. Maybe it would work just floating, I don't know. I never even tried it. I just always thought I would make a notch to get the bolt through to prevent it from riding up.

I thought that might work. Looks like a winner to me👍

[@The_Woodpile]

So far so good

[@The_Woodpile]

Exactly why I did this

[@KNLFirewood]

I like it!

[@The_Woodpile]

It was easy to do, required few tools, and makes great wood!

[@RNrob84]

Did you try to flip the wedge and see if that would drop it enough?

[@The_Woodpile]

Yes, it will go very low but with the way the wedge is sharpened it doesn't work

[@RNrob84]

Ah I didn’t think about the angle of the bevel in there

[@timlake2092]

Should have asked a buddy that has a plasma cutter to help you out…

[@The_Woodpile]

Now I know. I didn't even think about it.

[@YukonBlaze]

Now bolt a 6 way on top 😬

[@stannelson2582]

I guess another wedge will go on top. 6way life. Or is that an 8way lol

[@The_Woodpile]

Lol I'm not sure this has the power for that

[@stannelson2582]

@@The_Woodpile crotchety stuff no. Straight grain bundle wood I bet it would be fine. 17 tons is a lot of push power.

Wrong kind of hammer for the job! A ball peen hammer is the kind of hammer to use

[@The_Woodpile]

I don't own a ball peen hammer
