I am thinking of investing in a splitter.A good friend has purchased one from Sears.It looks the same as Troy-Built,etc.and the price was not bad.It has some good features and looks rugged.But,what is the best Ram movement,wedge going into the wood,or ram pushing into the wedge?The ram pushing gives the option of a 4 way wedge,but the wedge going into the wood is 2 1/2 inches wide on the sears unit,and splits the piece before it is halfway through. What is the verdict about this, as I am looking for a splitter for 3-5 cords a season,And what about the horizontal-vertical option? is it worthwhile?It seems to be good for large wheels.Towing and movement are not a problem.
