Thats a really nice nothing burger. The machine wears you out before you even get a couple pieces split. I have a dewalt hammergun and the same shat happened. It was brand new. Oh well its splitter time. Its good for breaking up concrete pads and walkways. And drilling overhead for hilti bolts for your pipe hangers because i know you need that when your trying to split wood. Its gas splitter time.
So what I think we all learned today, use the proper tool for the job. I now know a jackhammer is NOT the right tool for splitting wood. HA Loved it when both feet where suspended and nothing.
Cris ain't gonna freeze. He's got wood out of the gazoot. But it's still fun watching the videos like you said. I tried it last summer with a brand new dewalt hammergun that I bought for breaking up front steps that were crumbling at my sister and laws house. They were old. House was built in 1948. They put cinderblocks as the base. Then concrete all around it and on top. Well anyway when I tried to use my dewalt with the wedge bit. All it did was go inside about a inch and stop and get stuck. I could see that it wouldn't work. It needed to keep pushing inward. All it did was hammer on the outside and barely go inside. That's why a maul and steel wedges are better. They keep going in like a ram splitter. Even when I used my monster maul, it worked better that the dewalt hammergun. Because it goes in further and with 210 pounds of force behind it. It's back to the gas splitter. ⛽️
Does anybody know what time the Eastonmade offices open this morning?? I want to see about getting my deposit back and order the Vevor jackhammer instead!!😮
This cracked me up. Your legs dangling looked like Elf On The Shelf. Bill watched the video. This idea might have potential here. The surgeon who rebuilt my thumb said no more hand splitting for me. Big rounds are stood up and I saw them into managable pieces. This might help out busting up larger rounds. Great video.
I don’t know for certain but It’s my understanding the brand new trucks can also be used for splitting wood. Tell you what Chris I’ll call Ford and Chevy and see if they can’t send you two trucks. You do a comparison video and I’ll take whichever loses the contest. It’s also my understanding that trucks with all the bells and whistles are the best ones for splitting large rounds. Leather interior and upgrades on wheels and tires is a must.
WOW... Vevor is desperate for exposure AHAHAHAHAHA.. I wouldn't think they'd expect you to try and split wood ?? Many You tube Videos Proving What you attempted is still not practical.... Thanks Chris...
Fun video today Chris! 🔥💯👍. Would be interesting to see how it would make out with a wedge type of splitter head on it 🔥💯👍. See you soon! Andrew from NB :)
Chris to bad there didn’t sent it 10 days to later. Probably could use it for cracking Christmas nuts 🌰, walnut, chestnut and peanuts 🥜. Give the wedge to ken he probably could welder them on his iceberg wood 🪵 splitter. Iiiii iiiii thinking 🤔 Chris firewood 🪵 be going up in PRICE in 2024 dues to working man hrs splitting firewood 🪵. 😊
I thought the answer would be no. And, in reality, I was right. What a waste of time when a maul would do the job so much better and quicker. Fun experiment though!
Good for change the steel pins on your tractor bucket went there get stuck and need to replace from wear 😊. It’s good for breaking the tires off a ATV rims . Woodyard trailer tires 🛞. Chris you could use crack a deer 🦌 chess ♟ open to get at the heart ❤️ and lungs on them big deer 🦌. Put a hammer head on it use for getting bump out off bottom off N N trailer there millions off use if we think 🤔 off them . 😊
Thanks for the smile, great content. I wish when you chucked the maul on that cord you shorted it, that would have made even better RUclips content. Hit the like button.
Good morning Chris!!😀😀 I often wonder if a Jack hammer would work for splitting wood effectively. The jury is in. A resounding NO!! It's looking like winter is going to catch up with us this week. Hopefully we don't get the amount of snow they are predicting. By this time next week we could have over a foot of snow on the ground and below zero temperatures. Take care my friend!!😀😀💚💚 Logger Al
@@BertsCustomCuts Kioti to the rescue. That will be a cold ride using it for cleanup. That's why I bought a tractor with a cab just for these kind of days in the winter so I can clean up snow in my shit sleeves. And stay cool when it's 90 degrees in the summer.
I bought one of those, works great on rock and compacted clay/pan materials. I have several bits for it and It tamps and compacts well. Keep an eye on the oil level and don’t over fill! It was a good price and it had great reviews! Sure as hell NOT using it for firewood splitting 😂😂😂😂😂
Even Superman would have a hard time splitting with a jackhammer. I've tried it myself, not sure if the stroke isn't long enough or the bit needs more wedge shape. Didn't seem reasonable that it could break concrete, but not firewood rounds. So I built a big wedge for the bottom of a Shaver post pounder. That didn't work either. Hit after hit, no split, but it did drive the round right down in the ground! I tried it sittin' on concrete too. If it wasn't sitting darn near perfect, it'd come flying out of there with some real force! Well, being a quick study, it didn't take more than half a dozen tries for me to decide on some other project! Who'd a thunk? Thot I'd take a few minutes and reinvent the wheel. Blew that one too. Did better building a hydraulic splitter. Telling you this to save you some time. You can go ahead and try these if you want, but the maul is prob safer.
@@InTheWoodyard I get emails from Vevor quite regularly. They always offer something that doesn’t pertain to the channel even though they say they enjoy my content 🤣
A little comic relief this morning. Thanks for making this video, Chris. I'll be back tomorrow morning and maybe watch one of the other 1300 videos later today.
Mr. Horse, you sound jealous. And nothing is free, I make a new video every day for 3 1/2 years ...1300+ now and have paid for everything I get with 4-6 hours of work every day on the channel.
has nothing to do with being jealous or not its more about subscribing to a channel to see cutting stacking and processing wood but instead we have infomercials on snowblowers solar power packs bicycles blowers and now jackhammers and while watching those infomercials there are commercials during the video that is my point i was making but take it as you will @@InTheWoodyard
You have not put it together yet as I am watching and think the spike or short wedge will split wood better. Let's see if I am correct after the feet dangling clip.
Meanwhile on another RUclips page, there's some Einstein using an axe to break up a concrete floor 😂
LMFAO
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Best comment ever!
On that RUclips, I bet someone is writing...."Meanwhile on another RUclips page, there's some Einstein using a jackhammer to split firewood"🤣🤣
That’s hilarious
Haha :)
That piece of Elm took that personally and then the Oak said hold my beer!!! Silly human!
Yup, the wood one...sort of!
Another use for this contraption is to break up ice in the woodyard and free frozen rounds.
yup! maybe so!

Hahaha. Good one. 🤣
🤣🤣 You better hold onto what you have! Things could always be worse!😂😂

Good Morning Woodhounds!!!!!
Hello!
This cracked me up. Your legs dangling looked like Elf On The Shelf.
Bill watched the video. This idea might have potential here. The surgeon who rebuilt my thumb said no more hand splitting for me.
Big rounds are stood up and I saw them into managable pieces. This might help out busting up larger rounds.
Great video.
It was not the right tool for the job for sure!
@@InTheWoodyard I agree. I will stick with ripping and noodling. It was fun to watch.
Take your flat chisel bit to a machine shop. Have them cut off the chisel and weld on a splitting wedge. You may be pleased with the results.
Good idea! But I have better tools for splitting wood available.
Good morning Chris yes my first job was jackhammer when i was 18 the big one you have take your watcher off it wind to must and stop working ( ty Ron
Okay.

John!......I like the way you think!
Chris I think your Chinese jackhammer is a bust😮
Nope, it worked great on the concrete!
That thing is a disaster.
No, it worked great on the concrete.
WOW... Vevor is desperate for exposure AHAHAHAHAHA..
I wouldn't think they'd expect you to try and split wood ??
Many You tube Videos Proving What you attempted is still not practical....
Thanks Chris...
Yup, once was enough for me!

Just so you know, that is not going to happen ...once was enough!
@@InTheWoodyard 🔥💯👍
Good Morning 😂 Never have I seen a jackhammer used for splitting LOL Hi wood yard Good Morning wood yard😊
Now you can cross it off your list!
@@InTheWoodyard LOL
Chris, you're gonna break your neck standin on those wobbly rounds!!!
That is not so bad, it only hurt a little the last time I broke it!
I only buy my firewood logs fresh from the U.S.A.
okay!
Chris to bad there didn’t sent it 10 days to later. Probably could use it for cracking Christmas nuts 🌰, walnut, chestnut and peanuts 🥜.

Iiiii iiiii thinking 🤔 Chris firewood 🪵 be going up in PRICE in 2024 dues to working man hrs splitting firewood 🪵. 😊
Yup!
Not sure this is what VEVOR had in mind, but you did manage to pull off a video for unrelated tools in the woodyard.
Yup, that I did.
I thought the answer would be no. And, in reality, I was right. What a waste of time when a maul would do the job so much better and quicker. Fun experiment though!
Yup, the axe works much better!
Chris do you know they made a machine that dresses you in the morning?
Nope, I did not!
I’ve got a tip for you Chris.
Use the Ultra to split wood. 🤭🤭🤭🤭
Good idea!
Nothing ventured nothing gained as my boss says. Hope life is treating everyone great : )
Yup, sometimes you just gotta be different!
Good for change the steel pins on your tractor bucket went there get stuck and need to replace from wear 😊. It’s good for breaking the tires off a ATV rims . Woodyard trailer tires 🛞.

I have been a full time portrait photographer for 40+ years now.
Not a good idea using jack hammers to split wood! To much work and or time!
yup!
Lol I can't believe how that red oak done ,I'd love to see the company person face when they watch this.lol good stuff, thanks
I did what I do.
I wonder how long it would take to make a full cord of wood with that, Chris?
You know that he wouldn’t want to find out 😂.
@@amandadavis9726 agreed.
Way to long ...that is how long.
nope!
yup
Chris, interesting video. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
blow-per-minute
Yup!
Who doesn’t have fun with jackhammers??!!!
Sad people.
Looks like the new Eastonmade Mobil Axis 2000 bpm unit not hitting the production line 🤔
HA!!!
You’re funny with your boy toys
Thanks!
High moisture wood is difficult to split.....
yup, unless it is -30 and it is frozen solid!
In the mean time, the ultra would have a cord split😂😂😂
Yup, but this was fun!
The wedge you used was meant to be an asphalt cutter. Also just a fun video. I would have tried the narrow chisel point.
Thanks for the tip!
Well it did it. Slow though. Did pretty good on the cement.
Getting hammered with snow today?
Yup, it did.
G’morning Chris. Always jackin around….. Looks like a stout tool. Stick to the Ultra,,,
GoodNightIrene
yup!
Save yourself some grief, put that back on the next slow boat to China…….. You did try, I’ll give you credit for that.
It worked on the concrete!
Thanks for the smile, great content. I wish when you chucked the maul on that cord you shorted it, that would have made even better RUclips content. Hit the like button.
Next time!
Hahahahah. Try using it to spread butter on your pancakes, probably would work better. No back massager lol
A back massager...GOOD IDEA!!
Proof once again. Just because you can do a thing, doesn’t mean you should do a thing. Thanks for the entertainment!
Yup, I agree!
Very funny video!! Think you should stick to axes!!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks!
they send you guys all the same stuff. if you watch doing it cheap he gets stuff from vevor to. not a jack hammer though
Yup, there are a lot of companies that really get the social media marketing thing and know exposure is everything from reliable people.
Looks like it takes too long
yes!
I used a 90# breaker with a wedge on oak before and it didn't work either. It over wound my wrist watch and ruined it.
Yup, not the right tool!
Dan, at "Back 40" tried that 1 year ago on wood and came to the same conclusion, it doesn't work on wood.
Yup!
2nd comment. Either this video is pre- trip to Kenny's, or he let you have your boots back!
I got the boots back!
Fifty pounds is pretty small for a jackhammer. I have a 77lb one and it's still light duty.
Yup
I hate to say it because you’re an awesome guy, but that was a bad video, but I watched your videos every day
Ha! Thanks for watching ....so one bad video out of 1300....I am okay with that.
Still laughing. Thanks, Ray
Thanks for watching!
Chris you can start a "Tool Rental" business with all your tools!Great video funny!
Maybe!
I can think of many uses for that tool . But this not one of them. Like .... 🤔 ....👎.
Yup!
Let Tonys Cool Tools help you to cut the wood with it. He may approve it.😄👍
Good idea!
Use a maul axe, more effective. Is there a bit with a maul axe head profile?
I will just stick to my Eastomade Ultra and the 22mb from now on.
i don`t think i would care to split wood that way Chris,Ed from Vermont
Nope, me neither!
Now I know why people don't use jackhammers to split wood. Seems like a good, non-conventional workout anyway.
Yup, not the right tool!
I don't think I could have more underwhelmed. 😕 Shalom/gw
Well, now you know and you do not have to try it!

yup
The glacier was more exciting to watch than that. Fast forwarded that one.
Ha! Well, now you know!
The wedge needs wider, or tapered wider
Yes, it would help ...but...it is the wrong tool for the job!

Your right you don't know how use a jack hammer 😂
It worked great on the concrete!
Voted Best Electric Vertical Splitter on the RUclips
Haaaa!
Hard work, Chris. Instead of using a large wedge. I think the pick tool would be the best choice. Less surface friction to deal with.
Maybe so!
Looks super practical. Better stick to the proper tools
Yup!
Did you get your boots back from your brother???
yup!
You are a kid at heart with too much play time. Lol
yup!
