I feel like i was there with you. I have spent many winter days splittingbwood. We always used the Supersplit log splitter. Thank you for incuding usbin your day.
@@thelogfather5002thank you. I found their business but don't know what the bag description is? Can you tell me the name to try and find it. Thanks again.
That bags are a great idea. Let the wood season with out stacking. One less step. I may have a line on some IBC totes. But you have to stack it in to get 1/3 of a cord. Thanks
I just spruced up my late father’s old splitter. It was factory made, Diddier is the company name. I put a 8 hp pump on it vs 5 hp and took off the lunch box size reservoir and put on a 5 gallon with bigger hoses and kept the 6.5 hp Princesses Auto engine. And have received more speed and power. 👍
I am a power lineman I have worked in Ohio, West Virginia, Colorado, Utah, and currently Wyoming, that looks like the hardware the old timers would use for a wrap guy wire to guy the poles. So they would just like it sounds wrap the guy wire around the pole and that little bracket would hold it where it cross on the back side of the pole. I have only taken them down we have new ways easier safer ways to do it now. When you cut that old wire off the pole that has been up forever it is like a spring. Have to be careful if your working close to energized line.
Good video & conversation. I was milling some ash this past year and hit the mother load of nails. I found the metal detector useless when you are milling 8/4 boards. finally gave up on that log and it became firewood.
Super cool video. It’s amazing what can be found hiding in trees. I’ve seen ox shoes in big oak and bullet casings. Love watching your videos. Can’t wait for the next. 😎👍
Surprised that Split-Fire is consuming 7L in 2 hours. We had an older version of that model (2355?) with no log lift table and the 5L tank could run for 4 hours. We very much like our Split-Force 9 ton vertical splitter, no conveyor though on ours. Made in Canada 👍by www.youtube.com/@souduremolloy3883 Talking about juice and squeeze and whether getting into seasoning firewood is worthwhile. I see you are using bags. Hearing that you are not a fan of stacking wood in rows or crates, bags might be the answer for you to at least test market seasoned firewood. The only extra work will be the cost of creating the storage area for the seasoning of the bags of wood, and the time to transport to that field, and then to transport back into your trailer. Worth a try to do a trial run.
It’s the 14hp Kohler- it’s the motor that originally came on my Range Road processor. It’s was thirsty on it too… I’ve got about 20 bags, they’re fairly convenient, we built a simple rack with a pallet on the bottom, makes it better for me to move around with my small tractor. I have lots of space for storage- I’ve got lots of time to figure it out
Don’t worry about the blade! That’s all part of the adventure! I have about a dozen of those cans now, that’s probably plenty! Thanks for watching Kenny! Jeff
Still no plowable snow.
Maybe on the weekend.

Where did you buy the bag for collecting the split wood? Can you send a link?
I bought them from Range Road in Alberta.

@@rottiejakeluke you’ll have to email them- I’m not sure it’s something they normally stock. But they can get them for you for sure.
@@thelogfather5002 i check with them, thank you.
that chunk of metal looks like a gate hinge
Good video, i would have left that bolt in the wood and hung it on the wall as a conversation piece
There’ll be others! 😂

Love when trees tell a story or try. Nice splitter.

I have a couple of the pro-point princess auto engines. I think they’re great.
Thanks

Came here to say the same.

Log lift bags
Yup.
@@thelogfather5002 nice
Great video. Cool splitter. We are never guaranteed tomorrow.
Jeff it is fun want we find inside trees in our life time . Long it end up 🔝 on your bandsaw mill . 😊
"I'm only going to work until the morning of my funeral" LOL 😅
It’s irresponsible not to plan for one’s future! 😂
I found a full blown ceramic insulator inside a log and it was a show stopper.
I’d say it was a show stopper!
That's great. I found the better part of a flat file in a cherry log a few years ago. There's a "wall of fame" at my local saw shop.
Someone had hung a old horse shoe over a branch of a maple many many years ago. A large work horse type. Did not do my saw chain any good.
I’m older than you……so I can buy wore out equipment….lol. Great vid. John

Sorry about your blade.
The 20 L Scepter cans are on sale at Costco, 2 for $30.
