    Honestly, had money been no factor, that's the exact splitter Ida bought...
    Instead of building mine...
    Just a very, very well thought out machine...

    Welcome Albert. What no address? How are folks going to know where to find you to share???? :whistle: Seriously, if you get the chance to participate in a charity wood cut or GTG (get togather) in your area, please do it. You will get to put faces with names, share knowledge, & in general have a great time. Who knows, maybe I will get to meet to meat you at one.

    A great splitter & smart investment! :thumbs:

    We split about 35 cords in july for sale this year, it took 40 hours. It is our first year selling firewood, we are splitting wood now for next year.

    not too far away, i'm in jackson. in my dream head, we would block the wood with the tw6, then splits head down to a slow conveyor to a super splitter or two, then from there onto another conveyor where we either bundle it with a banding machine or stack it on pallets, at the end all the uglies go in a pile for my house :)

    Don't think Lowes sells this splitter anymore.. It's a toy compared to the splitters I see here but does most everything..
