I'm gonna be buying a splitter hopefully this week and it's gonna be a DHT 22,27, or 28. Very impressed with the 28 ton after watching videos and doing some reading but it's a little out of my price range. The hardest wood that I'll be splitting is tamarack (western larch) and other than that it'll be red fir or occasionally pine. I plan on doing at least 10 cords/season just for myself and family but I'm gonna try my hand at selling so maybe doing 30+ cords if I can get a supplier to come through
I think the biggest rounds I'll ever see will be 24 inch but that would be rare, mostly 20 inch and smaller. What do you guys use and would you reccomed? Will the 22 ton work? Any difference in reliability and repair/maintenance between the 2 engines (22/27 vs 28)
