I just had a 4 way wedge built for my splitter.Unfortunately the wings started at the same point as the vertical and went into bypass when it pegged the guage at 2350 psi.I am running a 4x24 cylinder so I thought I had enough power.Cut the wings back about 1.5 inches from the vertical part.I can now more or less split 4 ways with straight blocks and no big knots.Anybody using a 4" cylinder with a 4 way setup ? How far back are your wings and how easy is it splitting ? If I need to go to a 5" cylinder I will but will then need to up my pump to a 16 gpm since my 11 gpm will be to slow with a 5" cylinder.It will split some nasty oak knots with just the vertical at just above an idle and do it at about 1100 psi.So I know there is not anything wrong with my splitter.
