Difference is you're one guy trying to make a living and we're three guys trying to get to the beer!You guys are machines to get multiple cords an hour!
I have a nearlyv $40,000 processor and I get about a cord an hour out of it.

I think you got ripped. We do 3/4-1 cord an hour with 4" to 16" logs on a $13000 processor that we modified with hydraulic saw and clampYou guys are machines to get multiple cords an hour!

I love it when people say this. My response: If I could do that I'd have never gotten married..... go F yourself!

they are very optimistic on the 1-1.5 cords per hour especially considering that stock it will only do about 14" wood that is perfect. with the way we modified mine we can fit 18" perfectly straight logs but have to fight them a bit or 16" perfect logs and it runs pretty smooth.
Considering what Valley is getting out of his $40k processor i am pretty happy with what mine does. If you have a chance check out a Brute Force processor. talked to the owner at the Paul Bunyan show this year and watched it run for an hour or better. he has alot of good ideas on his that i hadnt seen anywhere else.
Cutting those rounds fast is your biggest hurdle.
Stacked?Last year 3 of us did a cord in about an hour. My processor didn't speed things up a bit but now 2 guys can split 4 cord in 4-6 hours without ever breaking a sweat. Money well spent.
Good work ,that is about as fast as it can be done 1 hour 3 guys 1 guy 3 hours stacked.1 hr from a pile of rounds to a cord of wood stacked in the bed of the pickup when it was 3 of us. since getting the processor we no longer stack anything. conveyor drops it right in the bed of the dump truck or in a pile that we scoop up later with a skeleton grapple bucket on my tractor.
