Wallenstein WP830 Time Lapse

[FLRA_Dave]

Just thought I would share a video of our family cutting, splitting, and stacking 5 FC (1.66 cord) onto our trailer. Total time working was about 4.5 hours with a 1 hour lunch break in the middle of it.

I really like that style of processor but the sticker shock kills it for me. I've looked at one a few times and they are well built.

FLRA-Dave: How about some picks of the LT 60H/LX115 if you have them?

Ha! If that don't look like a lot of fun, plus being able to do all that work.

I want one! That some serious stuff.

 

[Jere39]

Are you hiring?

Ha...

I've hired ($10-$15/hr) a few different guys throughout the past couple years when I thought I could use an extra hand. Just never seems to work out - they cost more than they are worth.

Looks pretty handy. How much does something like that run if you don't mind me asking?

That was $20k. LT60H trailer, LX115 loader, power pack, and the promo at the time was a "free" backhoe/dump box kit. That was March of 2015.

Ouch! I think I will continue to cut and load by hand lol.

If it didn't pay for itself, then I would still be cutting/loading by hand as well.

I only sell firewood not logs, so it would take years for me to make it worth it. It would make life easier though, but until then it's my gym program.
