I have heard a number of people complain about the legs supplied by some manufacturers on 3-point splitters. For anyone out there with a 3-point splitter, you might be interested in the modifications i made to my Ramsplitter, to convert it into a stand-alone splitter, so i can use my tractor for...

I cut all my wood 18" long, which causes problems if you want to stack 3 x 16" long to get the 4 ft. width. My solution is to run a stack down each side with the 18" long wood as usual, which leaves a space about a 12" space in the middle, which I fill with wood laid long-ways. So far, I've not...

I just picked up a almost new 16 ton Ramsplitter 3-point mount splitter for my JD 850 on e-bay for $460. I think I got a good deal. Anyone out there have any experience with the Ramsplitters?? :hmm3grin2orange:

I'm going to try putting an edge on my Monster Maul this weekend, and see what happens. Anything has to be better than blunt steel. I also noticed my SS has improved my swing with my MM.:blob3:

Looks like a neat little machine. Maybe I should buy my wife one for Christmas, and then borrow it from her!!

It's not a stumper for me, or for most of us that understand and cut wood. But I just had a young couple pick up a true "full cord", and after seeing how much it really was, they were ready to go after the guy that supplied them their last "cord". Seems he and I don't measure 4ft. x 4ft. x 8ft...

With all the gas wells going in here in southwestern PA, there's wood lying everywhere. Most of it is wild cherry, which while it isn't oak, it seasons quickly, and burns well, with a fairly high BTU output. I hope everyone in areas like this will take advantage of this supply of free wood...

JimDad, here's how I did exactly that this year. I only got into it because a very bad storm came through our area back in early August, and left me with dozens of very large wild cherry down. If I don't cut them up, they'll dry rot away before I can use them all for heat. So I went onto my...

An 850 with a 75 loader. Love that little machine. First 4X4 tractor I ever owned, and I'm still looking for the pole it can't climb!!

Only one way!!

Fiskar's Super Splitting Axe I just got to spend my first weekend splitting wood with my new Fiskar's Super Splitter, made in Finland. No chinese marking on mine!! First thing to remember - Be Careful!!! This thing is sharp. Just ask the Codura nylon on the sides of my steel toes...

Hydraulic Filter Question GPSMAN, I've been doing hydraulic system maintenance on heavy equipment for 40 years, and what you need to do is put an in-tank screen in the tank ahead of the pump suction line, and then put the filter between the return port of your control valve, and the tank return...

I've been using the MM exclusively for almost 30 years. I have one of the original orange ones made by a company in Cleveland, and it has never let me down. But Bushwaker is right, it does take its toll, especially now that I'm officially a senior citizen!! The MM design is great, but I've...

Fiskars 7854 I just ordered my Fiskars 7854 from Amazon .com for $39.95, free delivery and no sales tax. Now if it just lives up to its reputation, I can finally retire my Monster Maul. Or at least, give it, and me, a break!!
