    Nice work !! Thought you had bad luck? Want to make your $300 back? I'll even give you $350. Just getting it will be difficult!

    So a little up date today, I changed engine oil, hydraulic fluid and filter, Gave the head piece a paint job… "because I'll be the first to run into it"! and not see it so it got "red" paint. "I'll still run into it" :whistle: things are looking good. Ran like a charm, I'm happy! Life's good, At 54 I can finally put down my sledge "O" matic :picard: and renting a splitter. :cool:. I got the other one painted "mostly tonight" go see the other thread, lets see those splitters.

    A little update on the my new old splitter, The Kid had a ball today! :cool: She loves running the splitter, she split up just about a cord today. I had a lot of odd cherry, maple and some hackberry. It ran like a champ, I'm gonna get spoiled o_O… I'll have a red milk crate soon :p :tears::whistle:

    Very nice Dave. A hydraulic splitter does make life a little easier for the firewood hoarder.

    I'll tell ya Muddsaw, I beat on logs for over 35 years. "the exercise was real good" but things hurt to much any more! I must say I should have got one 10 years ago :emb:, I was just a little bull headed to think I wasn't getting older and just didn't want to spent the $$$. I was in the process of building the other one when this came along. Sooooo, I'll go from none to two soon.:cool::p Oh, She came along way before the splitter, but that was "more" work than splitting wood, "TRUST ME!" :rofl: :lol::whistle:
