Let's play a game. Re-watch this video and every time Mr Scheib says "Nasty", take a sip of your favorite beverage...
A lady once told me I could cut anything in her woods except the "pretty" sycamore tree. I said "I promise that won't be a problem." No to the thanks... 🤣
I had a sales guy bring by a splitter from a local shop to demo in my wood yard and he was bragging about it would split anything. We rolled out some Sycamore we had been struggling with and he said no problem. He tried running it through a 4 way and it got stuck like Chuck. I handed him the 10 pound sledge and he beat on it for about 15 min to get it off his splitter lol.
Sycamore is even tough on a 4way wedge!! Nice splitting on the 12-22!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
I cannot believe the splitter can handle that!
Great video Scheib. I know that feeling of getting everything dug out from under the snow and fired up. Good to see the Sycamore splitting as I've never seen it before.
Good Morning Scheib. Yes maybe you'll have better luck with the 4 high. Chuck always save the nasty stuff for that. Take Care
This is where I’m thankful for my straight grain ash!
Wow! That can really give you some nasty slivers! Easton made is really getting a workout, it’s gonna need a Miller Lite and a smoke after this!
That's the kind of stuff if you have use of a mill you cut it to size on a mill then to length with a saw after. Look at north west sawyer. He's got a couple videos cutting fire wood up like that.
Good bit of snow you got there Scheib. Better luck with the 4 way!!
Scheib, looks like the best time to split Sycamore, I'm sure you wouldn't be able to split it like you did if it were warmer out with warm wood! Great video, God bless.
Sycamore is a tree I leave alone unless it has fallen somewhere and must be cleaned up. I like using it for carving wood because of its grain structure. I have not milled any yet but think it might make so good looking lumber
It has a beautiful ray fleck. Not as pronounced as oak but it is there. I have been told it like to twist badly due to the grain structure. A friend of mine has experience milling it.
It is the craziest stuff I have ever tried to split by hand. I had to cut it up with a saw. 😂
You need to take a leaf blower to that snow! Should cover your equipment from the weather! Maybe build a shelter over the equipment like shifty! 🇺🇸
The sycamore definitely gave the Eastonmade a workout..
My wife is from PA
Youinzzz did a great job with all that slippy wood. Make sure you red up when you’re done 😂
Great video as always
Sycamore is easy to cut and looks nice but it is hard to split. When I was younger, there was nothing I couldn't split with my 15 lb. monster maul, EXCEPT elm and sycamore. I used to quarter the big pieces with a chain saw and then split along the growth rings. It splits OK with a single knife but I am sure it gave the box wedge a workout. Sycamore burns great if kept dry but is more work than it is worth
I thought Elm in Wisconsin was bad o my goodness that stuff is crazy. Thanks Scheib
SCHEIB you try grizzly bar with WHITE GOLD are you ? Remember STICK on the ICE 🧊, SAW in the WOOD 🪵 and RUBBER on the ROAD . 😊 it’s January 18 today here with bare ground and cold northern wind 🌬 blow down from Greenland. I’m off today polar bear hunting!! 😊
You rock brother. keep up the good work in adverse situations. Chip
Im glad sycamore is having a great time with his wood!!!
Good luck with the 4 way . That’s some nasty wood !!! 👍🏻🪵🔥🇺🇸🍺
Schieb I’m surprised you didn’t have it all covered up with the snow coming in ? Yeah it’s definitely give in 12/22 work out been nasty cold here now call 8+ snow northern Ohio Friday into Saturday flurries mid 20* here Thursday going try get something done before the snow be safe stay hydrated 👍
Sounds like Miss Janet Jackson kind of wood….! “NASTY”
Better luck with the four-way Wedge … !!!
I am blessed to have a pallet mill just down the road...Any Sycamore logs either are sold down there or thrown on the burn pile! It isn't even that good of firewood once dry and just hard on equipment. If you are actually determined to split it up? Then my suggestion isjust use the single wedge and work around the edges. It maybe a seem slower but not after getting this NASTY stuff all plugged up in a 4 way!👍
Sycamore doesnt burn bad. Beats a snowball thats a fact 👊
Scheib you got the point across , that stuff is NASTY lol . I’m running a 22-28 and have also had some nasty maple trees that’s came from tree service wood that makes me wonder if it’s worth fooling with . I’ll be waiting to see how the 4 way works out on that wood . 🍺
Don,no more sycamore for you in the future I’m sure 👍 😮😊❤
Take some to Nate for the firewood fellowship.👍😄🤘
I hope Andrew is watchin this!!!! HOLY SHIT the box blade is bending down!!! That IS stalling the Ram
Thought elm was bad. That's devil wood ya got there. ... from mid-Ontario where we just topped 5 feet of snow in a 4-day blow.
Wow nasty stuff for sure! I definitely don’t want any sycamore in my woodyard!!👍👍
Good morning Schleib. That's nasty.i just watched a nice 6 pt walk by.hes been coming thru each morning working hiis scrape.saw you guys yesterday at firewood at the furnace. Nice work on that cherry🍻
Yeah bucks are starting to show back up on camera again. Just need to find where they go during rifle season.
@@OutsidewithScheib I'm in Alabama. Our gun season runs till February 10.i got a nice buck this past Sunday was palmetto on 1 side other side had 2 separate horns.really crazy rack
Do the wedges need a bit of sharpening or are they blunt? Most of those pieces look mashed, not cut.... otherwise. I like it....a lot....
I use rubber maid kitchen trash cans upside down as covers for my engines, anything to keep the weather off them.
you can lead a horse to water, but.
I'd love to try some of that on my new splitter. I bought a 27 ton Champion. It's fun to run.
You got any of those big ones left?
One thing with sycamore, it has built in kindlin, all the scraggly pieces only need a match and paper to ignite. 😝
That’s the nastiest stuff around pa that I have ever split. When someone cuts one down the wood is always free lol
It really reminds me of the sweet gum I get around here. Nasty!!
👍👍
Sycamore is one of the best campfirewoods. My first tree I got was sycamore and I only had an axe😅 I know better now lol
Yeah sycamore is a mean mother to split. It does burn really well though. I’ve always thought it smells like coal when it’s burning
Nice video 👍🇧🇻
might better give that stuff back! man that is nasty stuff.
Nasty!
Tough stuff!
I’ve got some Sycamore and split some and said the hell with that stuff. Still have some rounds left but if your Eastonmade is laboring that explains why my splitter can hardly get through it. Someone tod me they use it in chopping blocks like hard maple
Donate that stuff to your competition.
Hey Don. I've got a sycamore here for ya if ya want 😅😅. Idk diameter, still standing. But it's over 13ft circumference. Another stick of same tree is about 11 and the smallest is maybe 3ft diameter. Used to have 2 more fingers but they've broke off and washed away w flood waters
The radius is 2.070063694 feet. Or just under 25". Diameter about 4 feet . That's one humongous tree!!
Does it burn the same?
That would have looked good laying in the woods.
Just when you think you have a straight piece of Sycamore it still goes twisted on you. Elm, Sycamore, and Sweet Gum are the three worst to split! I mostly use a single wedge to split most of those!
hi there so your favor it wood is Sycamore splitting in the cold snow , lol might have to go to Gum .tough wood there well done best to all john
Have to agree. Gum,dead elm, and sycamore are awful to split and stack neatly.
true , So glad you dropped in and liked it and then took your time and left a comment , Thank you John@@frankdrahos8569
I really didn’t know him not was going to split that hard until you started putting it through. Yes pretty sure I don’t want sycamore 😮 I have to pick up my new Expedition in Kane, PA on Monday. Where abouts are you located? Just curious.
It’s about 4 hours from me
@@OutsidewithScheib Haha, about 4 hours from me as well.
How would the ole rugged made handle that sycamore?
Not sure I’ll have to save some and find out
@@OutsidewithScheib do a video, inquiring minds...
That puppy toucher sure was groaning, but it did it.
Question is does it burn good and hot? Even though it’s nasty splitting wood is it good for burning in the house??
Not sure never had it before and will never have it agin lol.
Hardly ever hear an Easton made splitter labor that hard with anything. Can that cause too much wear and tear on the Splitter system ?
Tough wood and frozen the issue ? Good video as always though 🤙🏻. Thnx…
This wood is just awful never again.
It’s almost as bad as sweet gum.
i didnt think 1. sycamore maple could be split and 2. it could be used for fire wood. I thought it was to dense to burn?
Sheib, - That's.... NASTY! This classifies as Log Splitter Abuse!
Nice splitting…..or smashing I guess🤣 I’ll tell ya you sure pushed that 12-22! Now you can find a ditch at Sam’s to push the rest of that nasty Sycamore in🤣 Take care Don👊🏻🇺🇸
New subscriber. Where are you located ?
Pennsylvania
Wow it really is a crappy kind of wood ! Have you burned any of it yet how does it burn is a long burning? Have a great day!
If it split that hard how’s it burn.
On the BTU scale it’s only 19.5
Super fain 😂😂😂💪💪💪👌👌👌
Never cut or split sycamore. Hopefully it burns well once seasoned.
I am sure it will burn but probably not real long.
I have a load of sycamore, from frick n jeep, that I will drop off for you. Knowing how much you enjoy splitting the wood.
How can i tell the difference between sycamore and beech?
beach tends to be a gray colored bark sycamore almost has a snow camouflage look
@@OutsidewithScheib I gotcha. Thanks for the info.
Protect your equipment, cover the stuff up when weather comes in. The box wedge on that wood was abusing the equipment. Change wedges!
Never knew sycamore was that bad.
That's a lot of stuff😂stuff
So was that stuff nasty, it was hard to tell? 🤣🤣
I guarantee you were whispering to yourself "never again" during that splitting session
Yep
DUDE!!! That looks WORSE than elm!!!
sweet gum is worse
I hate sycamore. Won't even touch it anymore.
Nasty,nasty,nasty. Ive split Sycamore & sweet gum. Neither one is a picnic.
