You can ride it to the job site.

You can ride or drive our Splitter to the job also. Had it out a few times last year, waiting for the pile to shrink. It started out with an old beam, and a Northern Kit. All fabricated by my Father in Law. Basically hands free splitting at its finest.

Guys that are running a Skidsteer, or backhoe

Guys that are running a Skidsteer, or backhoe how much fuel do you go through? Do you think you go through more than a say... an 8-12 hp engine?
 
Pictures of my first and last splitters

These are some scanned in pictures of my very first splitter/wood processor. This thing could keep 5 men busy! (3 on the saw rig and 2 on the splitter.) The whole thing was run by a 4 cylinder combine engine with a Vickers vane pump off the front pulley and a triple v belt ran the saw.

Heres my Baby. American CLS AM25HH, 8HP Honda Gx and a 16 gallon tank. I have only put about a cord of wood through her so far, but that is all about to change in a couple more weeks. I have been just cutting this winter and really didn't want to run it in the cold weather we normally get. Once we start getting into 30 degree days and up I will begin splitting again.

Here's mine. Took a couple of days to get it done. I should have patented it but a guy from timberwolf saw a pic of it and they are making the same model now.:givebeer:

split, nice splitter, nice wood pile, and what about that little bass boat, do you get out much?



Not as much as I would like to.. If I ever get all my projects around the house done..(yeah right) maybe I could get out there more than I do.

The motorcycle has been calling me too.. Can never seem to get enough riding in...

Just did the electrical on the wood shed today. :givebeer:
 
Seeing all those mauls and sledges brings back a memory about my father. He would take a 10 lb. sledge by the end of the handle, hold it at arms lenght and slowly bring the head down and touch his nose and take it back vertical.
 
split, northeast, ct . do you ever ride up to the back door?

I live only a couple miles from the door.. used to hang out there all the time quite a while ago. Was one of my regular haunts.

The place gets hundreds of bikes on a sunday during the summer.. you can hear all the harleys coming and going from my house. :)

I haven't taken mine there as I gave up the bars years ago. :cheers:

Do you ride?
