Well that is a good idea and one I thought of as well. The problem is I only have a limited amount of totes, and can’t dedicate them to just sit. Once totes became popular around here people stopped giving them away and instead charge a ridiculous amount to buy them.

Also, keep in mind, the nice thing about pallets as the walls/side is the amount of air they let in. If you fill an IBC tote of wood, whether it's stacked or loose inside, it's basically going to act as more of a wind blocker and the core/center of the pile is going to struggle. I'm not convinced that bins will work tbh. The only reason they work for Chris is because of his location, wood will dry with ANY technique he uses. Just my thoughts anyways!

Been a great machine for me as well!

Yea all tractors need weight in the rear but with the high loader capacity the 2515 has the need is more noticeable for sure

Thanks for the kind words, please feel free to share my video on your website and social media.

@@BeaverTownOutdoors we're always looking for content. :)

I was thinking the same thing I did adjust the carb on the engine a bit and it’s not bogging down as much. Might be the difference between 2 stroke and 4 stroke

Planning to do a review video soon. I really haven’t done much other than a little tweaking on the carb which helped the engine not bog down in big wood

Has worked out great for everything I’ve had to run through it so far!

At this rate I would be happy to share! Unfortunately here in Michigan if it rains in the summer it gets super humid

I like the 6 way wedge BUT it has a design flaw. The bottom wings are upside down and it forces the wedge to ride up, which means you have to clear it every time you split. The 4 way doesn’t do that so you can just run continuously through. It doesn’t take a lot to clear it out but those seconds add up over the course of a day.

@@BeaverTownOutdoors I found the same issue with mine! I use my 4 way 95% of the time, single wedge 4.5% and .5% 6way

Thanks for watching

I split all types of wood check out this and other past videos, i get oak, elm, maple, and other stuff. Splitting the last of the Winter Rounds with the @RuggedMade ruclips.net/video/_dbqBxiGuYg/видео.html

Thank you very much!

You and me both!

It definitely will, glad I have a processor now.

LOL wait till you see the next one!

Adapt and overcome is a mantra I live by!

I agree we love our fuzzy children but it is so hard to have to help them with the journey to the other side. Thank you for the kind words, and for the support!

Log Lifts are an awesome feature! Not sure how I managed without one.

Thank you for the compliment, and for watching!

Wood

So for sharpening I do a couple different types. I hand file to touch up between tanks, I use a rotary tool to sharpen when dull, and I have a bench chain grinder for when a chain gets damaged and needs heavy duty sharpening. I also only use progressive gauges to set the rakers

The chain on the 592 was new out of the box

What rotary tool is that? And what does progressive gauges mean?

@@axesandthings483 so this video shows the rotary tool I use. Sharpening Chain With the EzzDoo ruclips.net/video/UuTNT_5Gnq0/видео.html

A progressive raker gauge is different than the bar you put across 2 teeth which sets the raker at an average between the 2 which in my experience doesn’t set it correctly to get the proper depth of cut. A progressive sets each raker to the corresponding tooth. That’s important if you hand file or use a rotary tool because your teeth end up being different lengths depending on how much each had to be filed or ground down to get sharp

Yea

Kalkaska mi Sometimes this phone thing doesn't say what I say. You keep up the good work Starr, j. Up here in kalkaska you have a good day, and please keep the videos coming

All good my friend thank you for watching and please spread the word about my channel I could really use more great subscribers like you!

Thanks for the advice!

@@BeaverTownOutdoors ... If you use the saw a lot , grease the bearing once a week. It's not hard to do.

Gonna see how the stock ones do before I decide.

I agree. Got to try one out at Bunyan and that ended my deliberations between the 661/500i and the 592. Glad I made the choice I did so far, looking forward to working it. Thanks for watching!

Thanks Bert I went to doing 30deg 60 deg on all my chains a while back. I’ll try doing 25 instead of 30 and see how it does. Dressing the wheel flat isn’t something I would have thought of except on square grind chain. Will check out the video for sure! Thanks for checking out my video, hope you’ll watch more!

Thank you very much!

So I used the adapter for 2.5 to 2. I am gonna try finding a 3 inch to 2 adapter not sure if it exists

Very true

Thanks for watching, I thought about trying it on the forks as well but I thought the forks might get in the way in some circumstances. If you try it I would love to know how it works out for you

@@BeaverTownOutdoors

@@BeaverTownOutdoors I definitely will try the forks once tractor back from annual servicing in a day or so. Plan to move both forks to the centre put a bar on the forks and shackle claw to the bar. Load pretty close to pins so should be able to handle good size logs. Will let you know how it works out.

Thank you for watching and for the advice. I actually do typically buck everything, then clean up when I’m not on camera, but I have been criticized by viewers that not cleaning up as I go is unsafe, or blocks the view. So on camera I tend to clean up as I go. But I have used the PickOx and the LogOx together to work 2 handed and it works extremely well. Thanks for making such a great tool!

Good idea!

I won’t disagree on there being a lot of plastic, just like all modern trucks. I will say that the price I got this truck for made that much more tolerable than the 40k+ I spent on my former truck.

The truck was bought used so Cummins got their share from the first owner

@@BeaverTownOutdoors .they are a great motor. It's a good looking truck. Best of luck with it.

Well they make good stuff but they are out of their minds for thinking we should pay so much for it

I like the RuggedMade a lot. For the price point it is a great splitter. Putting it together was a project and took most of a day, not difficult but a lot to do. The quality overall is good but I did experience an issue with weak bolts on the bottom of the push plate early on, but replaced them all with Grade 8 bolts and never had that problem again. Only other issue was a failure on the splitter valve, but RuggedMade sent me a better valve to replace it completely free of charge, even though I had passed the warranty period.

I got it because I hate ever getting a piece that’s just slightly too long. But honestly I think I have only have split less than a dozen pieces that are that long. If I had it to do over I would probably just get the 24” stroke. Hope that helps.

Yea I was hoping that changing the primary air to the tubes and new design front plate would have kept it from happening at all but it did. Although I will say it hasn’t happened as much as it used to

@@BeaverTownOutdoors I just subscribed. Love , hate relationship with this unit . I wish I had a back panel door. If those heat exchangers get plug, like what happened to me, it’s a pain!!

Thought about that, but would have to buy a PTO power pack and the blower. My rear blower works well for me, but I appreciate the suggestion!

So sometimes I keep the blower down but if I’m not in a rush I do it this way. And FYI if you check out my other videos you’ll see I have some great gas chainsaws. The lil battery saw is very convenient for quick cuts on little stuff.

I purchased the tractor last year they have not given me anything for free. Just really like the tractor and dealership so I let them know when I make a video with it and they share it to help me get views.

Bobcats are awesome machines!

I would love to have the hydraulic rotator myself or the back drag blade. Thanks for Watching!

Thanks for watching! I know there are other size options from Logrite but if you aren’t afraid to shorten it you can make it just right for you. Glad my video inspired you.
