Old man pine is a stringy biartch to split. For giggles, some knuckleheads are putting rounds in these machines sideways and it handles them fine, but I too haven't seen it on gum. I am also not a fan of the side loading, nor the temptation to keep a hand in there to hold a round in place.

Top load, a longer stroke to place two rounds deep, and a good in and outfeed system and it would earn it's keep pretty darn quick.
 
Didn't realise you could have a trailer towing a trailer (road train style), not legal in NSW as far as I know or is only on the actual farm?........ Just be careful with you weight limit 3500kg I assume. I reckon you'd run into all sorts of issues if your involved in an accident even if its not your fault. Insurance companys love finding any excuse not to pay out.
Looks like you'd burn enough carbs cutting and moving that wood you can afford to have a few VB's at the end of the day.

Na not supposed to do the road train thing here as well its more for moving gear around where the woods at,but were the Redgum was is about 3 km from my place so do a really early in the morning sneaky sneaky.
And yes the weight deal is a problem when the woods green.
 
Hi yas

Been dowing paddock clearing before seeding for a farmer and come up with this set up one for the sawbench wood,one for the greenish blocks and one for the dry blocks this way just drive around and use to machine to load as we go.
