Just curious if anyone has converted one of the vert./horizontal splitter with the wedge on the ram to horiz. only by putting a plate on the ram and cutting part of the base off to affix a wedge or 4 way wedge? Seems there are alot of these type machines out there that homeowners buy and the "I'm a logger now" aura would wear off after a couple hours. Then turn around and sell the splitter with very little wear at an even cheaper price. I myself like the ability of a 4way wedge to push wood out the end of the splitter (onto a conveyor someday) into a pile without having to pick it up and throw it. Bill (snowed in) in U.P.
