    Woodmaxx kinetic splitter anyone?

    DR is still making their splitters with some changes in designs. They are actually on sale until October 26th I believe for $2299 for the 34 ton version. One of the reasons why I would like to know how woodmaxx stacks up. All I have is Elm and cottonwood around me and mostly large rounds (30...

    MS 880 Firewood Saw Worth

    Well I'm running a 32 inch bar on the Dolmar and run into logs that that's just big enough. Wouldn't be my everyday saw just for the bigger stuff. Just figured if it was a cheap price I would snag it. They offered like a 30 or 60 day warranty on it. The price on a new 661 is $1260 at the same...

    MS 880 Firewood Saw Worth

    Just curious what a used 880 is worth? Not in perfect shape the side cover is broke, full wrap handle, 36 inch bar with most of its paint still on it and almost new chain. My 7900 Dolmar is waiting clutch spring, and my 550XP keeps overheating then won't start. So was thinking of doing a deal on...

    Woodmaxx kinetic splitter anyone?

    When I talked to them they said their rack was only 1.5 inches wide, where supersplit and Splitsecond both have 2.25 inch wide racks. I am not sure what DR Power is running. Also the woodmaxx 28 and 34 have interchangeable racks and pinions. I assume the only real difference between the 28 and...

    seriously considering a super split now

    My guess is that company to steam roll SS may already be here. I have not heard any complaints about the Split Second splitter. Now factor in adjustable working height, log lift, 90lb flywheels like the SS HD, Low engine mount for center of gravity/exhaust/heat/noise, road towable 45mph, 1 inch...

    seriously considering a super split now

    Colorado is not that far away, depending on where in Colorado. Any pics of the unit and maybe some of the problem your having? Did I understand that you already replaced the rack twice?

    seriously considering a super split now

    Hmm I smell a discount on the DR splitter? I thought a kinetic would be nice when its cold out and the hydro oil is like a rock. From what I have seen kinetics work good in straight grain wood that is smaller in diameter. I also do not make kindling out of my firewood anything under 8 inches has...

    seriously considering a super split now

    Sunfish you guys live where wood basically splits itself when you drop it, the elm and cottonwood here stalls out my hydro on some pieces and its an 4.5 inch bore. I was planning on just using the SS for the easy to split straight grain and small pieces. SS a good machine no doubt but they have...

    seriously considering a super split now

    Yeah if your engine is mounted lower to the ground and the machine uses the two hand method than its the newer DR splitter. The old one had the motor mounted like a supersplit right behind the flywheels and didn't use the two handed method of splitting. Shoot I was just thinking about ordering a...

    Christmas in July -- Log Splitter has arrived!!! :)

    I would suggest just keeping your 3 years out supply of wood, as it only works out that you need to cut enough wood for that years burning to keep your current 3 years supply. I only heat with wood and all it takes is something to go wrong without wood being ready to go and your out of heat...

    Norwood Log Hog and Timber tuff 22" grapple combo

    I usually just hook a chain to the log and pull it to where I can cut it to 8 ft pieces if I have to then throw them on the pallet forks on the tractor. Unless you have too many trees in the way where you can't do that what is the advantage of dragging the log?

    Christmas in July -- Log Splitter has arrived!!! :)

    So you are planning on cutting down on your stockpile of wood and maybe only cut one year out instead of 3, or am I miss reading this? Perhaps your just cutting down your bucked stack but still keeping 3 years worth of wood in stock?
