I am new to this site and been lurking around asking some questions to some members behind the scenes about their splitters. There are some awesome splitters made by a lot of different people here. I have found a used tw-5fc that the gentlemen says he special ordered from timberwolf to have 28 tons splitting force. Have any of you ever heard of being able to do this, and if it does not have as much force as he claims, can a person just change the cylinder from the 4" they come with to the 5", or will more need to be done? I need a splitter to be able to split some big pieces of stringy green cottonwood, and hate to lose it if you guys think it will work for me. I probably didn't phrase this quite right, but I can buy this for not much more money than it will take to build a high end splitter myself and it is a 2004 model.
