    STIHL 066-044 worth?

    Quick question for the masses. We're moving and I'm cleaning out the saws I've been hoarding. I'm keeping my 461 and 361, I've sold a couple buy I have 2 left that need to be rebuilt. I'm just trying to figure out what a decent price is. Both are complete just need an overhaul whats a fair...

    Detent valve question

    Detent valve question

    So I've put about 2/3 cord through it. seems to be working ok. I had to increase the pressure because in the forward direction the splitter wouldn't split some tougher pieces. I didn't think that the detent setting had anything to do with forward splitting force?

    Detent valve question

    Just the return. I got it to where it works, but i'm still not happy with it. The gauge jumps to about 800-900psi for it to kick off, it does sound abit funny. I plan to use it tomorrow so I guess I'll have lots of time to dial it in when it warms up. Splitter has about a 24" stroke on it so I'm...

    Detent valve question

    I bought a new ADJUSTABLE dent for the splitter. Now factory setting was 2750psi which is way to much so I adjusted the valve back and the pistons stops but the handle won't kick out and there's a strange noise from the valve. So I adjusted the valve to where it's crush a 2x4 on the return and...

    Old girl needs some TLC..

    This splitter is atleast 20-30 years old if not older. the 8"x6"x5/8" piece I bought for the push plate was $30. I new beam is about $300 or more, plus it basically means completely rebuilding the splitter, stripping everything off and fabbing everything up again. I would much rather build new...

    Old girl needs some TLC..

    I've already taken a torch and heated and straightened the areas that were bent bad, not going to get it perfect, I think my slide will have to be somewhat loose in order to make up for the imperfect beam.

    Old girl needs some TLC..

    So I bought an old splitter from a old fisherman about 8 years ago. I put some love into it, replacing the engine, pump, axle and new hoses and a sub frame so I could haul it behind the wheeler. Last year I put a Detent valve on it because with the 24" stroke I was wasting alot of time with the...
