Hey Archie! This was a fun video and really showcased the splitter 400 set up well! Thanks for having us over for the splitting session! Really enjoying your content! Keep up the awesome work 🔥💯👍. Cheers! Andrew from NB, Canada :)
Keep recording the videos. It’s real informative of how a day really is on the work involved to produce logs when we are serious about the product we sell. It’s hard work 😢. Great set up 👍 Build yourself a hopper for the end of the cleaner. It will work well with 3 high sides or an extra chute . 👍
What if you slowed the conveyor speed? It will reduce the speed of the pieces launching off the top of the conveyor, might end up with more in the bag than on the floor. What is the max length it can split? You showed 3x3 pieces, what is the max size pieces?
I’ve not tried max diameter log but I know it pretty big. This is on about half setting and goes all the way down to kindling. You can do 33cm max lengths
You need a diverter on the wood grate so you can fill one bag and set up the next bag…back and forth. Might need a wider grate…and a stand so the bag can hang without the fork lift waiting for bag to fill….just saying….😅
Awesome video! Question Was that wood already dried out before being put through the processor it sounded dry? What do you do when you get large wood with lots of nots? Or do you only buy wood that is under a certain length in diameter?
It was green ash so around 30% moisture. If it really is one big knot then yes it won’t bust through it but it’s very good at getting through most things, regarding diameter if they are to big you can just split in half.
Holy crap.. 4 mins per bag.. wow.. if they are the same as a cage, that's 5 facecords in under 45 mins... if they make one that can handle 16 inch (40.64 cm) wood I think I'm in !!! It's just remarkable how fast that is..
@@buckinfirewood I call that type of splitter a side-puncher. It produces more scrap than an 8-way but no resplitting. Automatic. More expensive. Check out the Rabaud 520 processor with this type of splitter on it, very expensive. Sold by global land equipment in New York.
Archie, I mistakenly thought you were going to replace your Transaw 350 with this new unit, until I noticed it didnt have a circular saw and a log in-feed. It looks better/faster than your current "Kindlet" machine. Were you also planning to replace your Transaw with a newer processor? You indicated your "cleaner" device would become obsolete. So are you saying it wont be needed for your Transaw any longer?

All Going Really Well!!! Well Done 🎉
Awesome I love the size of those splits. Cool video. Thank you
My. New favorite Chanel 🇸🇬
Welcome! Thank you
Very nice bit of gear.
Hi that splitter machine is epic ,, wow
Thanks! It sure is
Very fast. Is the conveyor speed adjustable? That would likely help reduce your launch factor. 😆
Yes you can slow it down but then you have a load of weight on the belt and can slip

@@oakfarmfirewood Most customers over here want 40 cm length.

@@foxlake6750
It is only a
temporary setup.
I'd love this set up. What sort of money we looking at, Inc power pack?
Looking about £20k-£25k I think not sure on recent prices
@@oakfarmfirewood Thanks, cracking bit of kit
So what is the length of the wood going throw the processor? 12 inch or 16 inch?
How much fuel does that power unit use per hour?
Good video Archie, is this 400 for kindling or firewood?
It seems alot more work cutting your rings,
My new machine will do that for me. This is a demo machine. But the 400 will do both
Do you buy new bags or used? I looked into it a bit and it seems like if you buy used bags they will not be all the same size. They are not cheap!
I buy new, all worked into the price and I buy bulk
That’s a very quick Spliter proper splitter 🪵🪵🪵🪵🪵🪵🪵🪵🪵👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻💪😎💪😎🙈🇬🇧💯👍😎🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hi archie great video what size is your vented bags
85x85x85

Intresting processor! Maybe turn the conveyor speed down and the logs won’t over shoot!

All depends on the size wood but we was doing 4mins pet cage, I would say longer wood would be quicker. Yes longer stroke but more volume
@@oakfarmfirewood even if it took an hour to fill 7 Cages which is 5 facecords it is much faster than how we do it now

Now if you get a log processor in front you got something
@@AATreeService
This machine is on loan.
He is not keeping this machine. He keeps his good stuff inside.
What do you do when it rains
we don’t normally process outside. This was a demo
🤘
9 Cages in 50mins.. that's impressive!!! What is the max length of the logs can it handle??
They have 20cm, 25cm and 33cm settings
@oakfarmfirewood if we only did 12" here in Canada.. our standard length is 16" or 40.6cm
@@buckinfirewood
When Eastonmade does a side-puncher, I expect it will be 16 inches.
@@jakebredthauer5100 when?!?
Do plan on buying something bigger like a Cord king or a Multitek machine ?
No they are more of an American machine, not built for European timber
@@oakfarmfirewood hey what’s the difference between American timber and euro?
@@waterboy5164
American timber is more difficult to split because of the species and because of the length of the rounds.

I am changing the Transaw for a new machine that has a cleaner already on it. This is a stand in until mine is ready

what is the size of the shed
80ftx40ft
How do you dry tht in the bag
They are vented bags so they breathe and I put part seasoned cord in normally that just finish off
How much do they cost. Can anyone let me know please.
Speak to Fuelwood there are tractor hydraulic, pto and electric movies
Can you slow down the conveyor speed?
Yes I could have done didn’t think of that
Check it out boys beautiful look firewood for a fireplace. How long can you do 10”,12” 16” long firewood? Carry on boys 😊.

Rotating drum trommel with graduated bars might get you some better grading and separate out the cambrian layer a bit more (more smoke from that material)
That’s sweet.
If you slow the conveyer down so they aren't flying off the end shute
If you slow it down to much there are to meany logs on the belt a one time and stops.
Conveyer speed is a little fast i think
It would have to much wood on any slower and slow down then stop
