- This is a chainsaw wielding, wood eating, firewood producing, down-to-business machine that takes full logs and chops them down to perfect firewood pieces - all without the operator having to leave the cab.
In this video, I talk with my buddy John about his Halverson 140B and how it helps him run his firewood business and then we cut a few cords with it!

That’s an amazing machine!
I definitely enjoyed using it!
This is one of the greatest things I have seen in a while boss of a tool
Thanks for watching! We plan on doing A lot more content around different wood processors.
Beyond impressive!
I'd have killed to have this thing when I was a kid.
Right! Especially without Dad knowing. Comes out and there is a semi truck of split wood on the ground 😂😂
Very nice. I'm thankful for guys that split and sell firewood cuz I buy from guys like John.
Thanks for supporting your local firewood guy.
That New Holland looks good too👍🏻
It really does!
Excellent video! Can’t wait to see you firewood business grow buddy!
Interesting 😊
Nice to see someone make a custom 8 way for the Halverson. You can order the 140b with the 4” cylinder to get more oomph. Getting mine in March!
Did you get your 140b? Did you go with the 4" cylinder?
@@coltchristianson3749 I stuck with the 3.5” bore for now. It gets stopped by some knots with the 6 way. The 4 way is the ticket and keeps going.
@@josevelasco3245 ok, I'm considering one and thinking of going with the 4" since I'll have a lot of larger diameter logs, and would want to use the 6-way for them. I'd even consider making an 8-way to get smaller splits. How are you liking yours? Any suggestions on purchasing?
@@coltchristianson3749 well if you get larger than 18” I would go with the 150. Even then, remember it’s only around 20 tons so if it’s knotty and big the 6 way won’t cut it or you can always drop it all the way down to act like a 4 way. I have done that before with the 140b. You do that by not having a pin installed and it can freely go up and down. You can then lean the wedge on something or the ground to get the wedge to go up and split 6 ways. If you have the option to get poles and no more than 16-18” the 140b works great and is faster.
@@josevelasco3245 ok, great explanation, thank you. I will have larger logs, but plan to just use chainsaw and process with a splitter. Being able to do 18" and under with the 140b, I can use my smaller skid steer (ctl) rather than the larger skid steer... Cheaper to put hours on it. That's a great tip, to drop the wedge down and it acts as a 4-way instead of 6-way. Overall there are so many details to consider, I'm just trying to make the best decision for my setup. I have a forwarder, and will be selecting the logs I cut from, so I can more easily separate the best ones for the 140b. From videos I've watched, it seems even the 120 does well splitting. But I think the added capacity of the 140b is a better fit for me.
So cool!
Thanks Matt!
I love watching your videos, from your favorite uncle Todd.
Very cool! Video from the operators perspective?
Next time he’s over I’ll try to make a POV video.
Did you say 12-14 gallons per minute? You meant per hour right?
Hydraulic flow rate. Not fuel
