New implement added to the fleet IronCraft 6 foot standard duty box blade
I have been needing something to help even things out at my parents new build house in the back yard. There were some ruts left from setting rafters and I said I'd get things leveled out. After some research of one of the local dealers I decided on an IronCraft 3106 box blade.

One year review of the Super Split kinetic log splitter. What are the pros and cons?
Просмотров 375Месяц назад
I've been using this HD model Super Split for the past year to split all of the firewood I sell and use personally. The speed and low maintenance of this kinetic splitter is what drew me to it in the first place. I split down to fairly small size for firewood bundles and this splitter has fit the bill perfectly.

    I like the house. Just too close to the neighbors for my own tastes. But not everyone wants the same things. The garage should be great too. That's something a lot of people fail to realize (my parents) when building a house on a slab, you don't have as much storage. So, by building this house with the large garage, they shouldn't be hurting for storage space. Are the close enough to you that you'll be able to take care of their driveway for them in the Winters, and maybe mow their lawn for them in the Summer, or are they still very able bodied to be able to do that for themselves?

    • @timbervisions
      @timbervisions День назад

      They are just across town (about 3/4 mile from my house and even closer to the wood lot). I do plan to help them out with snow removal. They can still mow as they have a rider, but one day Storm or I may need to cover that as well for them. They have a pole barn building at their current house so they've been used to having some large storage. They are downsizing on many things as well before the move.

    I’m researching different Implements for my new Subcompact, now that I can pretty much use the Tractor. Your Video on the Stump Grinder is one of the Best I’ve seen. Most are more of a Commercial for the Product or a self justification for buying it. The Practical use and Revue you demonstrated puts WM in the top spot for me, it’ll only get used on our Land a few Dozen times over the years. (Using the Backhoe works, but Man, that’s a lot of work) And don’t worry about the Haters, everyone knows they are just Background Noise.

I should have had more, but historically I would have had enough to get me to July or so, not out in May.

    Seems kinda low to me. I got a Woodland Mills 126 last fall and have only milled 4-5 logs so far. Mine is stationary, so no travel and set-up. I could use your pricing model much more comfortably.

      I agree, I think I need to adjust up for travel. When I mill at my yard, I think the price is pretty good. Thanks for your insight!

    When I price things I like to give a total price. I find people get scared when you give hour price because they don’t know the end cost. Sometimes giving a total price you can some times make more per hour. If you have experience and can jug time. I find works better. At the end of the day you need to make a profit. I price and if they don’t like the price they can go somewhere else. I always price far and i don’t rip people off. Just the way i am. Great video.

      I see your point and maybe when I get a few more under my belt I can better judge the time and can give a full price up front that will cover me. Thanks for the input!

    I know NOTHING about pricing for milling, and very little about milling in general. But that being said, your pricing sounds reasonable per hour, but at the same time, you're wasting far more than 2 hours of your day overall. I think if it were me, I'd have a minimum involved with my pricing. Because your actual 2 hours of work between milling and driving to and from the job, and set-up both ways etc, I would think that AT LEAST a half-day of your time is wasted. I think I'd keep all of your pricing like it is, but add in a 3-hour minimum or something for the actual cutting time, or something like that. That way, if you're wasting a half-day of your time, when you add up your 3-hour minimum for milling, plus your traveling etc, maybe it justifies your time a little better? Not sure Bud, I'm just thinking out loud here, but I don't think I'd have done a job for 130.00 or whatever your total amount added up to when you factor in all of your time tearing down at your house, traveling there, setting up again, milling, tearing down again, traveling back home, and setting up again.

      Maybe add a set up fee that is waived if they bring the logs to me would cover me better. Good ideas Jeff,I always appreciated your thoughts.

    Tim, I appreciate your videos. You have inspired me with that splitter. I’ve watched and learned from the technique that you use to make most of your splits square. I just finished splitting less than 1 3/4 cords of pine for bundle wood today. The SS is an awesome machine for what it is. It makes some really nice looking firewood. Once again,…thanks.

      I am quite pleased with the Super Split as well. Amazed at its speed and fuel efficiency. Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad my video has inspired you. Comments like yours are what inspire me to create the videos I do. Thank YOU!

    "Front wheel assist?" You mean 4 wheel drive😂😂

    • @timbervisions
      @timbervisions 2 месяца назад

      Sure, whatever you prefer to call it. It's technically front wheel assist. Four wheel drive tractors articulate in the middle. Two wheel drive with front wheel assist, the front wheels turn.

      Any tractor that has smaller wheels on the front compared to the back and the front wheels are steering wheels BUT the front wheels can also be engaged to help move the tractor in conditions where traction is limited is a front wheel assist drive system. It is often referred to as a 4WD, but technically it isn't. 4WD tractors all have the same sized tires and turn by articulating in the center (similar to a wheel loader) and all the wheels drive all the time. That is a true 4WD tractor. If you don't believe me feel free to do your own research. Have a great day!

      @@timbervisions Front weels are either engaged to the drive shaft, or disengaged. And unless some type of torque bias system is applied, which would control the amount of torque that being applied to the front wheels vs the real wheels, and is only utilized on sports cars. Usually called Traction Control. So what is the "Assist" part, when the front wheels are either engaged or disengaged with the drive shaft? Sounds like your just creating your own definitions.
