So my new Nortstar 37Ton Splitter came earlier in the week. I "took" the time last night to build'r up. I quote "took" because I started at about 10pm and didn't finish until around 1:30am. Just so you know, it can be a single person assembly, but you do need to be careful; that beam is HEAVY! Anyway, I got it put together, filled with fluids and tested her out today. Man is it nice!!! I will split this season with it and give some feedback. I know there are lots of opinions out there but personal experience is always welcome.... at least in my book.
Anyway.... here is a pair of before and after pictures. Sorry for the quality, I used my cell phone. Hope you enjoy
